5.0 IELTS can be converted to 7 points, or it can be 10.

Many universities convert IELTS scores into English scores for admission, but each university has a different conversion rate, sometimes with a large difference.

As of now, about 90 universities have announced the use of IELTS certificates in admissions in 2025.

Each school will have its own admission criteria and methods. Many schools convert IELTS certificates according to their own scale, combined with academic records, high school graduation exam scores, and assessment of ability and thinking to calculate admission scores.

According to a survey by Tri Thuc - Znews, most schools apply a 10-point scale when converting IELTS certificates to English subject scores, but each university has a different conversion rate, even with large differences.

For example, the University of Commerce converts IELTS 5.0 into 10 points in English, while the Academy of Journalism and Communication only calculates 7 points.

Diplomatic Academy converts IELTS 6.0 into 8 points in English, but Vietnam Agricultural Academy and Nha Trang University calculate it as 10 points. Or Hanoi Capital University converts IELTS 4.5 into 8 points, but at National Economics University, IELTS 5.5 is converted into 8 points.

Readers can refer to the score conversion table of the schools as follows:

5.0 IELTS can be converted to 7 points, or it can be 10 - 2
5.0 IELTS can be converted to 7 points, or it can be 10 - 3
5.0 IELTS can be converted to 7 points, or it can be 10 - 4

In addition to converting IELTS scores to English scores, some universities add points and give priority to candidates with IELTS certificates.

For example, candidates applying to Hanoi University of Pharmacy with an international English certificate (equivalent to IELTS 5.5 or higher) will have 0.25-2 bonus points added to their total admission score (converted to a 30-point scale), applicable to all majors.

Hai Duong Medical Technical University also adds 0.5-3 bonus points for candidates with IELTS certificate from 5.5 (or equivalent).

International language certificates, including IELTS, have been included as one of the admission criteria by universities in Vietnam since 2017, pioneered by the National Economics University.

Up to now, after nearly 8 years, from only top economic schools and language training schools, many schools in the fields of medicine, pharmacy, education, engineering, police, and military also include IELTS certificates in admissions.
