A university has been found listing its
tuition in U.S. dollars in a guide to Vietnam’s university entrance exams
published by the Ministry of Education and Training, whereas the Vietnamese
government forbids any enterprise or institution from quoting prices in foreign
currencies.
Tan Tao
University, an American-style private school based in the southern province of
Long An, says in the handbook that students will pay $3,000 per year when they
enroll in any discipline at the school.
Other
schools simply quote their tuition fees in Vietnamese dong, except for programs
they jointly run with international partners where dollar equivalents are also
provided for reference.
Tan
Tao, owned by a local real estate tycoon, is among the few in the country to
use English as the medium of instruction.
MoET
annually releases the manual to supply enrollment information to high school
graduates, who are required to sit for standardized tests in the national
entrance exams to gain admission to a higher education level.
Vietnam
has fined many stores, hotels, and firms for quoting prices in the greenback
since late last year.
