Type

Autonomy

Not verified: a current, institution-specific instrument establishing financial/academic scope and international-program approval authority has not been checked. Do not infer self-approval from ownership or ranking. Last verified: October 21, 2026.

Accreditation

MOET’s official register, data through September 30, 2026, lists institutional accreditation by VNU-HCM CEA, certificate issued November 4, 2023, valid through November 4, 2028. Domestic institutional table, row 118. Official register and attachment. Last verified: October 21, 2026.

This is the register’s institutional scope, not approval of every foreign partnership or professional license eligibility. Check the current certificate and any conditions for the proposed teaching site/program before contracting.

Existing foreign partners

Lincoln University (US): university’s 2026 recruitment page advertises an English-medium BBA and a separate top-up route. This is not the UK University of Lincoln appearing in other profiles. Verify the exact US legal entity, current accreditation/approval and award route before diligence decisions. BBA page; top-up page. Last verified: October 21, 2026.

US university diligence

Confirm the contracting legal entity and teaching site, the specific program approval, award issuer, credit recognition, current accreditation scope, student-protection arrangements and delivery capacity before treating this as a viable partner. This is an editorial diligence prompt, not a finding of a defect.

For general information only, not legal advice. Confirm requirements with qualified counsel and the relevant Vietnamese authorities before acting.
