This activity is part of the 2022 college admissions and career guidance program jointly organized by Tuoi Tre Newspaper, the Department of Higher Education - Ministry of Education and Training, and the General Department of Vocational Education - Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs.

Speaking at the event, Ms. Nguyen Thu Thuy, Director of the Department of Higher Education, stated that according to regulations, candidates can use their assigned accounts to register, adjust, and supplement their application preferences an unlimited number of times from now until 5 PM on August 20th. Ms. Thuy advised candidates not to register immediately but to carefully research the system to avoid errors and misunderstandings, but not to wait too close to the system closing time. The Director of the Department of Higher Education specifically emphasized that candidates must register all their application preferences on the Ministry of Education and Training's admissions system, in order of priority. After the system filters out ineligible candidates, each candidate will only be admitted to the highest-ranked preference among those eligible.
8 new training programs that keep up with global trends.
Deputy Head of Training Department Nguyen Anh Tuan informed candidates about some new points in the admissions process of Vietnam National University, Hanoi (VNU). Accordingly, VNU is recruiting 13,150 students for 143 majors/training programs at 12 undergraduate training units. Among these, there are 8 new majors that meet the human resource needs of the 4.0 labor market and the national and global digital transformation, such as: Artificial Intelligence (University of Technology); Construction Engineering, Smart and Sustainable Agriculture (Vietnam-Japan University); Entertainment and Event Management, Smart and Sustainable Urban Management (Faculty of Interdisciplinary Sciences). Notably, for the first time, VNU is piloting a bachelor's degree combined with a master's degree model at the International School with 3 training programs: Applied Information Technology, Financial Technology and Digital Business, and Industrial Systems Engineering and Logistics.
Deputy Head of Training Department Nguyen Anh Tuan emphasized that these training programs are built on the basis of training programs of prestigious universities around the world, providing learners with comprehensive skills in the fields of engineering, technology, economics, and management. In particular, VNU students are fully equipped with both academic knowledge and professional skills through practical sessions, field trips, and experiences at domestic and international businesses. In addition, learners are equipped with foreign language proficiency equivalent to levels 3 and 4 of the 6-level Foreign Language Proficiency Framework for Vietnam, so after graduation, students are able to use foreign languages ​​fluently and meet job requirements well.
The score distribution did not fluctuate too much.
Analyzing the score distribution by exam block, the Rector of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Hoang Anh Tuan, stated that the high school graduation exam scores for this year's subjects did not fluctuate too much. Majors with admission scores matching the English score distribution will see lower cut-off scores compared to last year. The number of perfect scores in Foreign Languages ​​decreased by more than 4,000. In Biology, there were only 5 candidates achieving a perfect score of 10 instead of nearly 600. The number of perfect scores of 10 also decreased in Mathematics and Geography. “The score distribution is basically good and favorable for students applying to all subject combinations. Some subjects, such as English and History, have shown improvement compared to last year. I think the A and C subject combinations will remain stable. The D subject combinations, which include foreign languages, will generally perform well,” said Principal Hoang Anh Tuan.
At the event, universities and colleges in Hanoi brought models and experiential teaching aids to give prospective students the most comprehensive view of their future fields of study. At the booth of the International School, Vietnam National University, Hanoi, students were able to experience and explore modern 3D printing technology and the operation process of 3D printers. In addition, students attending the event received attractive gifts and admissions handbooks from training institutions and were introduced to facilities, faculty, and learning environments, helping them gain a more detailed understanding of the school and the major they choose.
