This year, Foreign Trade University plans to enroll 4,180 students (an increase of 50 students compared to last year) using 4 methods, including increasing the scores of international certificates SAT and ACT. The 4 methods include: Direct admission, consideration of 2025 high school graduation exam results, consideration of academic records, and consideration of competency assessment certificates.

Specifically, the admission methods are as follows:

In the 2025 high school graduation exam results review method, candidates can review their exam scores independently, or in combination with international language certificates. The IELTS score and other certificates are equivalent to those for transcripts.

With the admission method based on academic records, the school applies to 3 groups of candidates, including: Participating in the national excellent student and science and technology competition; winning third prize or higher in the city-level excellent student competition; being a student of a specialized school. Students can use the average score of 6 semesters of the three subjects in the group; or combine it with an international foreign language certificate. When considering the combination, the certificate score will be converted and replace the English subject in the group.

Method of considering domestic and international competency assessment certificates: The school considers the results of two competency assessment exams organized by Hanoi National University and Ho Chi Minh City National University. The floor scores are from 100/150 and 850/1200 respectively.

It is expected that the threshold score to ensure the quality of candidates using the results of the 2025 high school graduation exam or combining the results of the 2025 high school graduation exam with international foreign language certificates will be announced immediately after the results of the 2025 high school graduation exam are available.

Last year, the admission score of Foreign Trade University increased slightly compared to 2023. The school's new major, Computer Science, also had a relatively high admission score right from the first year of enrollment, at 27.2 points in all combinations.

This year's high school graduation exam will take place on June 26-27. 2025 is the year when the first batch of students under the new general education program will take the high school graduation exam.

Candidates will take the exam in 4 subjects instead of 6 as before. The two compulsory subjects are Math and Literature; the two optional subjects are Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Geography, History, Economic and Legal Education, Information Technology, Technology and Foreign Languages ​​(English, German, Russian, Japanese, French, Chinese, Korean). This is the first time that Information Technology and Technology (Industry, Agriculture) have become graduation exam subjects.

Regarding the formula for calculating graduation scores, exam scores account for 50%; the rest is the grade 10, 11 and 12 transcript scores (50%) and priority points if any. Compared to before, the transcript scores increased by 20%. The high school graduation exam results were announced on July 16, 1 day earlier than last year.
