3 plus 2 school refers to an educational model, which is divided into two types. One is 3+2 in secondary and higher vocational schools: in this mode, students study for three years first and then two years in junior college; The other is the university 3+2 model: this model is that students study in junior college for three years and then in undergraduate course for two years.

3+2 Higher Vocational School is a three-year secondary vocational school and a two-year junior college vocational school. Higher vocational education is a five-year college education, and 3 +2 is a secondary school. Students with the "three-two-stage" system need to take the "three-two-stage" unified examination in secondary vocational schools and higher vocational schools, and those who pass the examination will be transferred to colleges and universities to complete two years of specialized study. Issue a two-year college diploma.
There are also 3+2 modes in secondary and higher vocational schools and higher vocational and technical schools, which are educational systems approved by some key secondary vocational schools and higher vocational colleges through provincial education departments. The main enrollment targets are fresh junior high school graduates with a five-year academic system. After graduation, students will get corresponding university diplomas. Tuition fees are charged according to the standards of secondary schools in the first three years and junior colleges in the last two years.
The difference between 3+2 and five-year consistent system
Higher vocational 3+2 is an educational model based on junior college education. Students need to complete vocational college education first, and then choose to continue their studies for two years to obtain an undergraduate degree. The education curriculum of this model is mainly oriented to industries and occupations, and focuses on cultivating specialized talents who can adapt to the needs of occupations more quickly.
The five-year system is a complete undergraduate education, which takes about five years from enrollment to graduation, of which the first three years are the basic stage and the last two years are the professional stage. Compared with "3+2" in vocational colleges, this educational model has a more comprehensive curriculum, a wider range of knowledge, more emphasis on the cultivation of students' ability and the improvement of comprehensive quality, and is more suitable for students who need comprehensive further study.
