A series of universities increase enrollment targets in 2025

(Dan Tri) - In 2025, many universities will increase enrollment quotas in some majors or admission methods.

2025 is the year the first generation of students following the new generaleducation program will take the high school graduation exam.

The exam takes place with two compulsory subjects (math, literature) and two elective subjects from among the subjects that students study at school.

Currently, schools are autonomous in recruiting students according to the Law on Higher Education. According to statistics, there are more than 20 methods of admission nationwide, mainly early admission (considering academic records, international certificates, aptitude tests, thinking tests...).

According to initial announcements from some universities, it is expected that in 2025, enrollment quotas will increase in some majors or admission methods.

Traditional Medicine increased by 20%; Nursing increased by 10%; Pharmacy increased by 30%. The remaining industries did not increase their quotas.

Regarding admission methods, next year, the school plans to implement 6 admission methods, including: high school graduation exam results; direct admission according to the regulations of the admission regulations; using the results of the capacity assessment test, thinking assessment organized by other units for admission; using only international certificates for admission; combining high school graduation exam results with international certificates for admission; using other methods.
