In addition, students with permanent residence in areas with particularly difficult economic and social conditions or from poor or near-poor households according to current state regulations are also eligible for priority consideration.

In particular, schools give priority to female students and students who actively participate in activities organized by the school, the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union, the Vietnam Student Association, the Vietnam Youth Union (if any) and social organizations. In addition, the principal is allowed to specify some other student groups.

How do schools deal with dormitory accommodation?

Regarding this issue, Dr. Tran Thanh Thuong, Head of Student Affairs Department of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technical Education, said that the school currently has dormitories that can accommodate more than 3,000 students, while the number of students in need is much greater.

Ms. Le Thi Yen Tam, Director of the dormitory of Saigon University, also said that the dormitory has 560 seats, not enough to meet the demand, so the school also has to consider giving priority to students who are policy beneficiaries such as children of martyrs, wounded soldiers, sick soldiers, children or themselves infected with Agent Orange, orphans, ethnic people in remote mountainous areas, children of families in areas of special economic difficulties...

According to Ms. Yen, after priority students register, if there are any remaining seats, students in areas 1, 2 and 3 will be considered. "For those who are not allowed to stay in the dormitory, the school's student support center will introduce rooms for them," Ms. Yen shared.
