My college

There are many Colleges in Almaty. Usually there are several faculties at college. The college headed by director. The course of studies lasts 3 years.

I study at Almaty College of Communication at KAU. The academic year begins on the 1^st of September and is divided into two terms (semesters).Students take Final exams at end of each semester. Twice a year students have vacations – one month in winter and two months in summer. There is a very good library and computer center in the ground floor. The first year

Students study general subjects. In the second and third year we study specialized subjects. A very good tradition of our College is that theory is accompanied by practical training.

It is interesting but difficult to study at my College. After college I’m going to study at Kazakh American University. I hope students of College are going to be good specialists of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
