- The state compensates for tuition fee exemptions and reductions for public vocational education and higher education institutions to implement the policies for individuals eligible for fee waivers and reductions according to the fee ceiling specified in Decree No. 81/2021/NĐ-CP of the government dated August 27, 2021.
- The budget for compensating tuition fee exemptions and reductions will be allocated based on actual study time, not exceeding 10 months per academic year, disbursed to the students twice a year (only applicable to the two main semesters, not for summer and re-sit semesters).
- In cases of overlapping eligibility for tuition fee waivers and the support of study costs specified in this Decree with other legal documents providing higher support, the higher support from the other legal documents will be granted.
- The policy of tuition fee exemption and reduction does not apply to cases receiving a salary and living expenses when attending school, to postgraduate students, and researchers.
- The preferential policy on tuition fee exemption and reduction will not be applied to individuals who have previously enjoyed this benefit at one vocational education or higher education institution and continue their studies at another institution of the same level and degree. If a student eligible for tuition fee waivers and reductions simultaneously studies at multiple educational institutions or within multiple faculties or fields within the same institution, they will only receive one benefit.
- The policy of tuition fee exemption and reduction, as well as study cost support, is not applicable when the individual is under disciplinary actions like suspension or termination of studies, academic probation, retaking courses, or additional studies. In cases where a student has to stop studying, retake courses, or be on academic probation (not more than once) due to illness, accidents, or unavoidable reasons not related to disciplinary issues or voluntary withdrawal, the head of the educational institution will consider allowing the continuation of studies as per regulations and the continuation of the student's entitlement to the support policies specified in this Decree.
