University Education System in Vietnam
The Ministry of Education and Training said that in the 2020-2021 school year, the whole country has 60 private/people-founded universities and 6 universities with 100% foreign capital. Statistics from the three public reports and the 2023 university enrollment project show that there are 9 universities with 2022 revenue of 1,000 billion VND, including 5 autonomous public universities and 4 private school. At the top is Van Lang University with 1,758 billion VND. The common point is that the majority of schools' revenue comes from tuition fees. For private schools, revenue comes from research, transfer and other sources but is not significant. For example, at Nguyen Tat Thanh University, tuition revenue accounts for 98.2% of revenue. At Ton Duc Thang University, tuition accounts for about 90.3% of total revenue. This figure at Hanoi University of Science and Technology is 79.5% and Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics is 66.6%.
