According to the current legislation of Ukraine, students are not called up for military service.. The Law of Ukraine " Thus, according to Article 23, the following are not subject to conscription during mobilization for a special period: applicants for professional (vocational), professional higher and higher education, trainee assistants, graduate students and doctoral students.

True, this applies only to those who study in full-time or dual form of study.. Postponement does not apply to part-time students.

But there is a period when it does not even apply to the categories mentioned above..

Students who completed a bachelor's degree before entering a master's program are temporarily not students, therefore they are not entitled to receive a deferment from mobilization, since they are not formally applicants for education during this period. That is, until they are included in the lists of master's students, they are not subject to deferment and can be mobilized.

If a student wishes to serve, then a delay cannot prevent him. It is enough for such a student to come to the territorial recruitment and social support center (formerly the military registration and enlistment office) and write an application about the desire to be a volunteer.

After that, the military registration and enlistment office sends messages to his educational institution, and it automatically, without a student's application, provides him with academic leave for the duration of his service.. If the student does not want to be mobilized, upon receipt of the summons, he must present a certificate of training at the military registration and enlistment office.
