Language requirements, transcripts, credentials, prerequisites, experience, or entrance exams vary by program. Please obtain the list of required documents directly from the admissions department; there is no single IELTS score that applies to the entire college.
6. Tuition and Budget
Do not use domestic tuition fee tables to promote costs for international study, as the college is not currently accepting this applicant group. Tuition, supplies, equipment, housing, and living expenses must be confirmed based on the specific program and learner status. Costs in the North should be calculated separately based on the location.

8. Semesters and Application Planning
Application deadlines and start dates depend on the program. Vietnamese students planning to study abroad should select institutions confirmed to be accepting international applications; only consider this college if official policies change and individual profiles meet the requirements.
9. DLI, Study Permit, and PGWP
This profile assists in researching public institutions; it is not an option for international study applications for 2027–2028. Do not use the fact that the institution is a public college to assume eligibility for a study permit or PGWP. When admissions policies change, ensure you verify the institution/campus, program, and IRCC regulations before applying.
