Enoon Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Can anyone tell me how much it costs per year for a student to attend a Vocational/Technical College? Are there separate fees for registration/course/term? Do the students have to pay for their materials and equipment and to enter examinations? It is likely to be an engineering/electrical maintenance course in Roi-Et province. Thankyou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlyAnimal Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 First question, is your Thai sufficient to study a course entirely in Thai? As I could be wrong, but I assume Rajabhat RoiEt, or one of the Vocational colleges, probably don't have courses in English. With this in mind, you'd likely be looking at around 10,000 per term, but that's just an estimate based on what my gf said universities usually cost. If they did have a program in English, it'd likely cost more than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoon Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks for your reply, It wil be a Thai teenager who is studying, not me. Your reply prompts me to ask how many terms are there in the Thai academic year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlyAnimal Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Generally 2, although there may also be an option for summer school, but I'm not sure on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Just looking this up and came across this site asking for donations for poor students and suspect information is correct in regard to government schools. This was in regards to a teenage student making the vocational choice after 9th year which is 3 for certificate (or 5 for degree) year course option now available. http://www.thaistudentcharity.org/what-does-it-cost-to-make-the-difference/ 10,000 Baht will pay the expenses of a university student for one semester, or will pay the fees for one year (two semesters) for a vocational college student. 70,000 Baht will provide a five-year scholarship for a new college student studying to Higher Vocational Diploma level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerryLH Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 "Thankyou, very useful information." The amounts listed are what the scholarships they give out are worth, not what the actual expenses / costs are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOneAmerican Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 You do understand these courses are for the Thai 15-18 year olds who are either too badly behaved or failed to attain the required grade average that would entitle them to continue government high school in years 4,5,6.

The Op never said he was attending the course. It is likely he could be the sponsor of a student who will study. It is good to ask here if he doesn't know.

I was pointing out to the OP that these courses are generally for the uneducable. The Thai gfs often sell them as courses for exceptional students. All the teen gang fighting you see in the papers is from these 'vocational schools'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
