If you need to learn Vietnamese first
This applies to Vietnamese-taught programs. English-taught applicants who meet the English requirement do not need the preparatory course.
- Tuition for the Vietnamese preparatory course is covered, and so are dormitory fees in rooms for 3 to 4 students.
- After the course you take a Vietnamese proficiency test. Reaching Level 4/6 lets you enter your bachelor's program with the scholarship terms above.
- If you do not reach Level 4/6, you pay for extra study and repeat tests until you do. If you then decide not to enroll at HaUI, you repay the support you received.
