On the afternoon of 18/7, VNU announced the minimum score of 19. This applies to the combined score of three subjects, before weighting and including any regional or preferential points. For the HSA, scores out of 150 will be converted to a scale of 30.

Based on this minimum, VNU's member universities will announce their own specific minimum scores before 21/7, except for health and teacher training programs, which must adhere to the Ministry of Education and Training's threshold (before 5 PM on 23/7).

For other admission methods, VNU's member universities will announce equivalent scores later.
