According to Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Khoi - Head of University Training Department, Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy, based on the official dispatch of the Ministry of Education and Training on reviewing data in preparation for filtering virtual admissions, the school has reviewed all data and will use all valid results and evidence on the system (including foreign language certificates) to consider adding points for candidates.

On July 31, the school's admissions board officially received full data on supplementing international certificates on the Ministry of Education and Training's system with a total of 581 candidates. However, the candidates' data on the system was unclear, incomplete, and even submitted certificates that did not meet the requirements.

Through inspection, the school discovered that up to 315 candidates did not meet the requirements for the threshold to be awarded points (candidates with IELTS Academic 6.0 or higher/TOEFL iBT 80 or higher; candidates with international SAT certificates from 1,340 points or higher. The international certificate is valid for 2 years from the test date to the deadline for receiving the international certificate according to the school's admission announcement).

Therefore, the school has reviewed and made a list of 266 candidates who need to provide information to verify international certificates.

On August 1, the school announced that candidates whose names were on the above list must provide information for the school to verify their certificates. The school also warned that candidates must be responsible for the authenticity of their certificates.

"After four days of the school receiving information to verify international certificates, most candidates have followed the school's requirements, updated and supplemented evidence... However, there are also many candidates whose certificates are not qualified or have not been implemented.

After review, the school's admissions board finalized the list of 264 candidates who will receive additional international certificates in 2025 to receive additional points for admission to regular universities," Mr. Khoi added.

A total of 2,008 candidates with international certificates received extra points.

Previously on June 18, the school issued a notice requiring candidates to submit certified copies of international certificates directly to the school or send them by post . The school will not process applications sent after 5:00 p.m. on July 18.

In the previous round, the school also announced a list of 1,744 candidates with qualified international certificates. Thus, the total number of candidates with international certificates in 2025 who will have their points added to the regular university admission exam at Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy is 2,008.
