Last year, the University of Social Sciences and Humanities planned to increase tuition fees, from 13-24 million VND per academic year for the standard program and up to 60 million VND for the high-quality program. However, at the end of December 2022, the Government requested localities and educational institutions not to increase tuition fees to support students, low-income students, and disadvantaged households, stabilize prices and control inflation.

Therefore, the school will return to the old tuition fee for the 2021 course and earlier, ranging from 10-12 million VND per school year depending on the number of credits registered for the standard system and about 36 million VND for the high-quality system. The 2022 course is the first course the school has switched to financial autonomy, so the new tuition fee will still apply.
