Course Registration

Guidance on course registration

In the first year, students are arranged to study according to a standard schedule and are allowed to choose some common courses. From the second year onwards, except for some majors as required by the Faculty, students continue to be arranged according to the standard schedule; other students, following the guidance on course registration, must review and adjust their individual study plans approved by their academic advisor before registering for courses.

Before each semester, the University’s Academic Affairs Office provides “Guidance on course registration” with specific timelines, sent to students’ emails and posted on the website htttsv.hoasen.edu.vn.

Regulations on minimum and maximum credit hours per semester

– For main semesters: Students must register for courses with a minimum of 12 credits and a maximum of 24 credits, excluding courses not counted for credits such as National Defense Education (NDE), Physical Education (PE), and Preparatory Informatics, except for the last semester according to the standard schedule or the semesters after the last semester according to the standard schedule (students take makeup courses) or semesters without enough excess credits (due to having taken excess courses according to the standard schedule in previous semesters).

– For the Extra Semester: There is no minimum credit requirement, but students are only allowed to register for a maximum of 12 credits, unless approved by the Head of the Academic Affairs Office.

Changing Class Group for Courses, Course Cancellation

Course Cancellation

– Students are not allowed to cancel course registration once the registration process is completed. However, in cases of unforeseen circumstances such as accidents, prolonged illness requiring hospitalization (with confirmation from the hospital), or special family disasters during the semester, students may apply for course cancellation. The University will consider the request based on the deadline for submission and may either retain the tuition fee or refund it according to the tuition fee policy.

Re-registration and Remedial Study

– Students are considered to have not achieved the required average grade when:

+ For Students in Cohorts 20 and earlier:

+ For Cohorts 21 and later:

+ For all Cohorts, if a course has not been passed, students are required to re-register for that course:

– Remedial Study: For any course with a GPA of 4.0 or higher, or a passing grade, students are allowed to re-register for that course, when offered, to improve their grade. The grades for all attempts will be recorded in the semester transcript. The highest grade obtained in multiple attempts will be used to calculate the cumulative grade point average (CGPA) and will be included in the Supplementary Diploma Appendix (SDA) upon graduation.

The procedures for re-registration or registering for remedial study are specified in the Course Registration Guidelines provided by the Academic Affairs Office.
