Thus, the deadline for candidates to confirm admission is 5:00 p.m. on August 30.
According to the instructions of the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET), from 5:00 p.m. on August 20, universities will begin to announce the first round of benchmark scores. The deadline for announcing the benchmark score is before 5:00 p.m. on August 22.
Before having the standard score, the general admission system of the Ministry will filter 6 times (from August 17 to 20. The purpose of the virtual filter is to ensure that each candidate is only admitted to one, highest wish, helping to minimize the phenomenon of "virtual admission".
The Ministry of Education and Training notes that training institutions are not required to require candidates to confirm their admission or admission before August 22 and are not allowed to complete the admission confirmation, or complete the admission before 5:00 p.m. on August 30 (including for training programs linked to abroad).
After the first round, from September 1 to December 2025, candidates who need to be admitted for additional rounds will follow the information posted on the admission page of each training institution.
One of the new regulations in this year's university and college admissions is that schools must convert the equivalent of admission scores and entrance thresholds between admission methods and combinations to increase consistency, objectivity and fairness with candidates. Training institutions cannot download data and admission information from the system if they have not publicly converted the equivalent admission score.
In addition, the Ministry of Education and Training also requires schools to review additional criteria and enrollment data from previous years to determine a suitable virtual rate, ensuring that the number of candidates officially admitted does not exceed the approved quota.
