However, admissions experts note that because the quotas that schools have for this admission method are not many, students need to refer to the admission scores of previous years to set appropriate admission wishes.
According to the newly announced 2025 enrollment plan, Hanoi National Economics University will maintain the same SAT score requirement as in 2024, which is 1,200. Foreign Trade University also announced that there are 3 ways to consider admission for candidates with IELTS certificates. These are IELTS with high school transcripts; IELTS with high school graduation exam scores and IELTS with SAT/ACT/A-level. In particular, the school requires that with IELTS certificates, candidates must ensure a score of 6.5 or higher. With SAT and ACT certificates, candidates must achieve a minimum SAT score of 1,380 and ACT score of 30 to be eligible to apply.
Hanoi University of Pharmacy also sets relatively high requirements for candidates applying for admission using SAT certificates. Accordingly, the required score to submit an application is 1,300. Hanoi University of Civil Engineering also plans to directly admit candidates with international SAT certificates of 1,200/1,600 or higher or ACT 26/36 or higher. Candidates wishing to directly admit to majors that require Fine Arts must take the exam organized by the school and achieve a score of 6 or higher.
Hanoi University of Science and Technology also announced that the admission criteria for SAT (combined with foreign language certificates) must not be lower than 1,250 for all majors, although the school did not specify the conditions for submitting applications. In addition, a point to note for candidates planning to apply for admission using SAT certificates to Hanoi University of Science and Technology is that the average score for each year of grades 10, 11, and 12 must be 8.0 or higher. The University of Economics (Vietnam National University, Hanoi) also announced that it will accept applications for admission using SAT certificates from 1,100 or higher.
Vietnam Agricultural Academy also plans to directly admit excellent students (at least one semester in high school) with one of the following achievements: winning a provincial prize or higher or being on the national competition team with IELTS 6.0, SAT 1,200/1,600 or ACT 25/36 or higher. If the number of registrations exceeds the quota, the school will consider in the following order: Excellent student prize, IELTS score, SAT, ACT, separate exam score. Diplomatic Academy, Banking Academy and Post and Telecommunications Technology Academy also plan to consider candidates with SAT score of 1,200 or higher.
Sharing with CAND Newspaper reporters, Associate Professor Dr. Le Huu Lap, former Deputy Director of the Institute of Posts and Telecommunications Technology, said: SAT is a standardized competency assessment test widely used for university admission in the US education system. Knowledge and skills in the test include: Mathematics, Reading and Writing. The current trend is that more and more universities in Vietnam, especially top universities, use SAT certificates for admission.
However, Mr. Lap also noted that with the above test content, students only reviewing the SAT is not enough knowledge as required by the high school graduation exam, so they need to divide their review time reasonably. In addition, the quota for the SAT admission method of universities is currently relatively low, so students also need to find out whether their SAT score is equivalent to the SAT score admitted to majors/schools in recent years or not to set appropriate wishes.
With many years of experience in SAT preparation, Ms. Dang Ngan Ha, Academic Director of 4WORDS English Center, also said: SAT is a difficult and interesting test because it tests both learning ability and thinking ability. This test not only motivates students but also SAT teachers to research and learn a lot of in-depth knowledge in many academic fields; helps train thinking, concentration ability and increase reflexes.
To achieve a high score on this exam, students should start studying for the SAT from grade 10 or grade 11. This will give them enough time to get used to the test and be able to retake it if necessary to achieve the desired score. In particular, starting to study for the SAT from grade 10 allows students to build a solid knowledge foundation before entering a more serious review phase. This also helps reduce the pressure of studying at the end of grade 12, when students still have to prepare for other exams such as the high school graduation exam.
