Eliminate high school transcripts
One of the changes in the enrollment direction of Hanoi Capital University in 2025 is the plan to eliminate the high school transcript admission method for pedagogical training majors and change the admission method based on international language proficiency certificates to a combined admission method between foreign language certificates and a number of other criteria such as high school graduation exam results and high school academic results.
According to Associate Professor Dr. Do Hong Cuong - Principal of Hanoi Capital University, the school plans to open 2 more training majors: Information Technology Pedagogy and English Pedagogy, bringing the total number of training majors of the school in 2025 to 30 majors.
With the goal of developing the school towards focusing on training quality, in 2025, Hanoi Capital University will not increase enrollment targets.
Thai Nguyen University of Education has just announced the methods of admission to full-time university in 2025. In particular, the school representative noted that the school does not conduct early admission based on the academic transcript method as in previous years and does not organize an aptitude test for the Early Childhood Education major.
Previously, Ho Chi Minh City University of Education was the first pedagogical school to announce that it would no longer consider high school transcripts for admission from 2025. The school said that the removal of high school transcripts for admission was to meet the needs of students studying under the new program with the general view of ensuring fairness, transparency, creating favorable conditions for candidates and ensuring improved input quality, meeting the requirements of the modern labor market.
Increase admission quota from separate exam
While in 2025, many schools plan to "tighten" the method of considering transcripts, many schools tend to increase admission quotas from separate exams.
Hanoi Pedagogical University 2 plans to organize an entrance exam for admission from 2025.
2025 is also the first year that Hanoi Pedagogical University 2 organizes its own entrance exam and uses the school's own exam results for university admission.
Previously, Hanoi Pedagogical University and Ho Chi Minh City Pedagogical University organized their own exams along with other admission methods.
Hanoi Capital University said that in addition to the 4 admission methods as last year, the school plans to add 1 more admission method in 2025 based on the capacity assessment results of Hanoi National University of Education.
According to statistics, in 2025, candidates can use the results of the Hanoi National University of Education's competency assessment exam to apply to more than 20 higher education institutions (an increase of 13 units compared to 2023).
After 3 years of organization, the competency assessment exam of Hanoi National University of Education is recognized by many schools in admission.
Hanoi National University of Education said that the 2025 exam will have changes to help students reduce stress and promote self-study ability.
Dr. Tran Ba Trinh - Head of Training Department, Hanoi National University of Education - said that the question formats of the Hanoi National University of Education's competency assessment exam are basically the same as the questions of the high school graduation exam. Therefore, students can review both exams at the same time. This helps them avoid anxiety when reviewing for the exam, reducing pressure. Students do not need to study or take extra lessons to do well on the exam.
2025 is also the first year that Hanoi Pedagogical University 2 organizes its own entrance exam and uses the school's own exam results for university admission.
