Admission procedure: Candidates do not need to confirm their resume

A representative of the Ministry of Education and Training confirmed that university and college candidates will not need to confirm their personal history when completing admission procedures from this year 2017. Specifically, candidates need to submit 5 types of documents but do not have a student personal history.

Recently, public opinion has been outraged by the story of students being criticized by local government representatives for "not complying with the Party's policies and guidelines, the State's laws, and local regulations" in their personal history forms, making it difficult for them to enroll in school and apply for jobs.

From 2017, admitted candidates will not need to confirm their CV when enrolling. Illustrative photo.

Regarding this, Ms. Le Thi Kim Dung, Head of the Legal Department (Ministry of Education and Training) said that in order for schools to better manage learners and implement the State's policies for students, especially those who are subject to policies, the Ministry of Education and Training issued Decision No. 58/2007/QD-BGDDT dated October 12, 2007, in which Article 4 stipulates that the admission records of students include 8 types of documents, including the Student's CV.

However, on January 25, 2017, the Ministry of Education and Training issued Circular No. 05/2017/TT-BGDDT on the Regulations on regular university admission; regular college admission for teacher training groups, in which, Clause 3, Article 14 of the Regulations stipulates that the application documents of successful candidates submitted to the school include 5 types of documents, without the Student's CV.

Ms. Dung said that according to the provisions of Clause 3, Article 156 of the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents 2015, "In case legal documents issued by the same agency have different provisions on the same issue, the provisions of the later issued legal document shall apply."

Thus, from this school year, students do not need to have their personal history confirmed when applying for admission.

Ms. Dung said that students must confirm the information declared in their CVs (if required) at the People's Committees of the wards/communes where they reside in accordance with the provisions of the law and instructions of the Ministry of Justice.
