According to the original 2024 enrollment plan, 5 p.m. on August 27 is the deadline for candidates to confirm enrollment on the general enrollment support system, according to the Ministry of Education and Training.

However, through feedback from training institutions and candidates, some candidates, when enrolling directly at the school, discovered that they had not confirmed their enrollment on the system.

Therefore, to facilitate candidates, the Ministry of Education and Training continues to open the system for candidates to complete admission confirmation procedures before 5:00 p.m. on August 31.

According to statistics from the Ministry of Education and Training, the number of candidates admitted to university in the first round of 2024 on the system is 673,586, an increase of 58,116 candidates compared to 2023.

However, up to this point, the number of candidates confirmed to enroll is 551,479; accounting for 81.87% of the total number of candidates admitted in the first round. Thus, there are up to 122,107 candidates who were admitted but did not enroll in university, accounting for 18.13%.

Compared to last year, the admission rate after passing the entrance exam this year is higher (in 2023, this rate was 80.34%).
