Despite storms, floods, and traffic jams, thousands of parents and new students have come to the Vietnam Women's Academy to enroll.

According to the regulations of the Ministry of Education and Training, candidates who are admitted to the first round will have to confirm their admission on the system, no later than 5:30 p.m. on August 30.

Training institutions must not complete admission confirmation or complete admission before 5:00 p.m. on August 30 (including for training programs linked to abroad). Additional admission rounds start from September 1 to the end of the year, the Ministry of Education and Training noted.

Most northern universities have announced the enrollment schedule for new students in 2025. Many schools have enrolled students.

On August 24, some universities welcomed students to study directly such as: University of Technology, University of Foreign Languages (Hanoi National University) or online study such as: University of Transport, University of Irrigation, Vietnam Academy of Agriculture...

On August 26, the Vietnam Women's Academy also organized enrollment for new students.

Although the persistent rain caused by the impact of storm Kajiki caused many streets of Hanoi to be flooded on the morning of August 26, thousands of parents of 13th grade students from the Vietnam Women's Academy were present to take the steps to get into school.

The reception tables are arranged scientifically and with specific instructions for students and parents to easily complete their documents. The admission steps are quick: submit documents, make student cards, measure uniforms, register for a dormitory, choose a club...

Ms. Tran Thi Hong - the parent of a new student majoring in Law - shared: "After 5 hours from Phu Tho to Hanoi due to the impact of the weather causing traffic jams, the family took their child to school and felt secure because of the vibrant and friendly atmosphere with the enthusiastic support of teachers and students".

Associate Professor, Dr. Tran Quang Tien - Director of the Academy shared that the school day is not simply the submission of documents or receipt of student cards, but also a brilliant mark of the age of 18 when students start to step on a new page in their journey to adulthood.

Associate Professor, Dr. Tran Quang Tien hopes that new students of K13 will immerse themselves in a vibrant school life, studying in an equal, creative and connected environment.

Some other universities such as the Academy of Journalism and Communication, the Vietnam Youth Academy or Hanoi University of Pharmacy... have announced that they will welcome students to study in early or early mid-September 2025.

Below is the enrollment schedule for new students of universities in Hanoi:

The 2025 enrollment season recorded many records. There are a total of 344 admission combinations, the number of candidates registered for admission is nearly 850,000 with a total of 7.6 million wishes - meaning an average of 9 wishes per student, while in previous years it was only about 5.

This year's university admission score ranges from 15 to 30 points, based on high school graduation exam scores. Although only 9 candidates achieved absolute high school graduation exam scores, 6 majors in 3 schools got 30/30.

After announcing the benchmark scores and organizing admission, schools that do not have enough students can recruit additional students in many batches, until December. Candidates can register if they are not admitted or do not confirm their admission to any school.
