There are only a few hours left to finalize the application, what should candidates pay special attention to?

At exactly 5:00 p.m. today, July 28, the general admission system of the Ministry of Education and Training will officially close, ending 13 days of registration for university admission in 2025 for candidates nationwide.

The Ministry of Education and Training recommends that candidates carefully review their application information, complete the process and submit it on time so as not to miss the opportunity to enter university.

Finalizing your university admission wishes: things you absolutely must not forget

All candidates (including direct admission candidates) must follow the general admission process on the Ministry of Education and Training's system online.

Candidates should note that after 5:00 p.m. today (July 28), after the ministry's general admission system closes, it will be impossible to register, adjust, or add university admission wishes.

The system has a function that allows users to export the file of the registered wish list. After logging into the system, candidates access the menu Register for admission information . To view the list of registered wishes, candidates click Export list .

After registering online on the common system, candidates must click the "Submit" button to confirm the information. In fact, in previous years, many people filled out their application but forgot this last step, resulting in the system not recording the data and losing the opportunity to be considered for admission.

Candidates should not wait until the last minute to register, because the system may be overloaded or have access errors during peak hours, especially between 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. this afternoon.

Timelines candidates need to note

Check carefully the application information and order of preferences.

Candidates should log back into the system to review and carefully check all registered admission information, including quantity, order of wishes, school code, admission code, etc.

Note that wishes that do not have the status Recorded NV on screen 2 are wishes that have not been saved.

The system will automatically select the highest score combination of each candidate in the admission methods to consider in the order of entered wishes, helping to optimize the chance of admission, without having to choose a subject combination.

Experts recommend that candidates should rearrange their wishes in order of real priority, because the system only considers admission to the highest wish for which the candidate is eligible.

When considering admission, if a candidate is admitted to any wish (priority from top to bottom), the following wishes will not be considered.

If the first choice is not accepted, the software will automatically consider the following choices. Candidates can only be admitted to one major at one school. Therefore, you must think carefully before deciding on your choice.

In addition, related information such as academic records, exam scores, foreign language certificates, priority areas, etc. also need to be checked accurately and completely. Missing or incorrect information can directly affect the admission results.

Candidates need to ensure that this information is consistent with their admission goals, pay attention to the number and order of their preferences on the system, and put their favorite preferences first.

Add additional language certificates

This year, the ministry's admission system has a function that allows users to add additional foreign language certificates for admission purposes.

The list displays both the foreign language certificates that candidates entered when registering for the high school graduation exam and additional certificates when registering their wishes. Candidates only enter additional certificates for admission consideration.

Click the Add Certificate button, the system displays the dialog box to add additional foreign language certificates. Then select the certificate type from the list, enter the test score/certificate level, add proof of foreign language certificate and click Save information .

In case there are many types of certificates, candidates click on multiple proof files, candidates combine them into one file to upload to the system.

University Admissions Calendar 2025

What else do candidates need to do after July 28?

Another important step is to pay the application fee, which will be done from July 29 to 5:00 p.m. on August 5 (according to the province or city cluster).

According to regulations, candidates must pay the fee corresponding to the number of wishes registered on the ministry's system online. Fee payment can only be made after the system "locks registration" (after July 28), so candidates need to pay special attention to this time frame.

Candidates need to access the system and complete the payment of fees based on the number of registered wishes. If the fee is not paid on time, the registered wishes will not be considered by the system.

After the registration and fee payment period is over, universities will conduct virtual filtering and process admission data.

According to the schedule, the first round of admission results will be announced before 5:00 p.m. on August 22. Successful candidates will have time to confirm their admission online before 5:30 p.m. on August 30.
