Accordingly, the admission to teacher training schools has many new points such as no minimum score regulations, schools are allowed to enroll multiple times a year.

Candidates are also allowed to register their wishes, with no limit on the number of wishes or schools. Accordingly, the chance of passing the entrance exam to their favorite major will be higher.

Regardless of the method of recruitment, schools must publicly announce it on their electronic information portal so that candidates know. Schools must also ensure that they will not cause related consequences such as exam preparation or negative exam results.

For schools using high school exam results, the Ministry requires that they use a combination of new subjects/tests in addition to the traditional exam blocks (the exam blocks that schools have used since 2014 or earlier) to consider admission for a major that requires at least 25% of the quota of that major to consider admission according to the traditional exam blocks. This regulation will only be implemented in 2017.

Adding new subject/exam combinations for admission is carried out according to the principle of using the results of three subjects/exams, including at least one of the two independent subjects Math and Literature for admission.

The subjects/tests included in the combination for admission must be related to the requirements of the training sector and no more than 4 subject/test combinations must be used for admission to a sector.

For gifted schools and majors, use the results of 3 exams/subjects, including at least one Math or Literature exam combined with the gifted exam results for admission consideration.

Depending on the requirements of the training industry, schools can specify the main exam/subject to be multiplied by a coefficient when considering admission.
