She noted that starting this year, the results of the ORT will be used not only for admission to universities but also for enrollment in vocational lyceums and colleges, both on a budgetary and contractual basis for 11th-grade graduates.
“The registration process has also changed. Since 2021, this procedure in Kyrgyzstan has been conducted in an online format. Previously, registration required a login and password provided by schools and teachers, and graduates from previous years had to contact district or city education departments. Now, a new platform www.testing.kg has been created, where current graduates and students of vocational lyceums can register through ‘E-Kündölük,’” Batrakeeva reported.
She added that for graduates of previous years who previously contacted district education departments, authorization is available through ‘Tündük’ on the CООMO online platform.
At the same time, the option for traditional registration through district education departments remains available.
Regarding the cost, the CООMO director confirmed that the price of the main test and subject tests will remain at 470 soms. However, there has been a change in the cost of testing in the state language, which is mandatory: if last year its price was 200 soms, this year it has increased to 470 soms.
For registration, applicants will need:
- Original passport;
- Color photograph that meets the specified requirements;
- Payment of the ORT registration fee via a single QR code;
- Graduates of previous years must have their certificate or diploma of secondary education with them.
