Selection criteria

* Past Academic Performance weighting

Weighted GPA are calculated using the following weighting:

  • 40% – Grade 12 Semester 1 GPA
  • 30% – Grade 11 GPA
  • 30% – Grade 10 GPA

** GPA equivalence

Grading systems that use a different scale, such as a 4.0, 7.0 point scale or letter grades, will be converted to an equivalent 10-point scale.

If a high school transcript does not include a cumulative GPA for each year, the Scholarships Office will calculate the annual GPA by averaging the grades for subjects assessed on a 10-point scale. Subjects assessed on a pass/fail basis will not be included in the calculation.

Provisional scholarship offer

To uphold your Provisional Scholarship Offer, please complete the following requirements by the specified deadlines. Failure to meet these conditions will result in the withdrawal of the scholarship.

  • Maintain your GPA: Maintain a minimum GPA of 8.5/10.0 for Semester 2 of Grade 12. 
  • Submit required documents: Send your Vietnamese High School National Examination Statement of Results and Final High School Transcript - or official IB/A-Level (or equivalent) results - to your Program Advisor by 18 August 2027.
