Awards
|
Awards Awards listed on the RGSV site are primarily student-focused and not awarded to the school. Examples show RGSV students receiving prizes in external competitions, not the school as an institution. For instance: - RGSV wins 3 Awards at the Korean Literature competition (November 2022): three RGSV students were prize winners, including a Grand Prize. This reflects student achievement rather than a school-level award to RGSV itself. - RGSV Students Shine at the 2024 UKMT-SMC (October 2024): results celebrate individual student medals and awards in a UK Maths Trust competition. The emphasis is on students, not the school as a separate award recipient. - Hanoi Folk Music Competition 2023: RGSV Year 3 pupil won a Special Prize, attributed to the student rather than the institution. - RGSV Class of 2025 Achieves Outstanding IB Diploma Programme Results (July 2025): reports on student results, not a school-level award to RGSV. | Awards TH School was recognised by The Knowledge Review magazine as one of the “10 Best International Schools in Vietnam”, based on criteria such as educational programmes, community features, and school offerings. |

Admissions
|
Admissions Step 1 – Inquiry and information gathering: Families begin by registering interest through RGSV's online admissions portal or by contacting the admissions team by phone or email. You can request the prospectus and book Open Events or tours to experience RGSV in action. The Admissions Team provides guidance on appropriate entry points (Preparatory or Secondary) and introduces available scholarship options and Assisted Places. Step 2 – Online application and initial documentation: Submit the online application via the RGSV admissions portal. You will need to provide basic student information and upload required documents; for scholarship consideration, a separate scholarship application form will be issued closer to the exam date. It is important to gather current school reports (translated to English if needed) and any certificates or awards to support the application. Step 3 – Scholarship application (if applicable) and supporting materials: If applying for scholarships, complete the scholarship application and attach supporting documents such as the current school report, translated/certified where required, and any certificates or prizes. A separate scholarship form is required for most award types, and references from independent tutors or coaches may be requested depending on the scholarship category. Step 4 – Entrance assessments and auditions (for various scholarships and entry points): Applicants may be asked to complete CAT4 assessments, subject-specific tests, and, in some cases, auditions or portfolio reviews (for arts and music scholarships). Round structure and test content vary by scholarship category and year group, with Year 7–12 applicants typically facing CAT4 plus written tests and interviews. Step 5 – Interview and final scholarship/entry decisions: A final interview with teaching staff is part of the process for many scholarships and for some year groups. The outcome may be a scholarship offer, a place offered, or advice on next steps if a place is not immediately available. The RGSV portal and admissions team will communicate decisions and any next steps. Step 6 – Offer, enrollment, and fee arrangements: If a place is offered, families must confirm by signing the online contract within the stated deadline and pay the enrollment fee. The application includes an enrollment fee and a CAT4 assessment fee; details are provided in the admissions portal and on the Fees page. RGSV also notes that Assisted Places or scholarships may contribute toward tuition—up to a total 50% reduction in some cases—subject to eligibility. Step 7 – Post-acceptance support and next steps: Following acceptance, families receive onboarding information and can engage with the Admissions Team for settlement of any remaining fees and to arrange transportation, uniforms, or meal plans if needed. The Assisted Places policy outlines confidential income assessments and annual reviews to determine ongoing support. | Admissions 1. Parents begin by completing the online registration form on the TH School website, calling the admissions hotline, or visiting the campus in person to register their child. After the form is received, an Admissions Officer will contact the parents. 2. The school arranges an entrance assessment, which can be done either online or on campus. For Early Years, children join an age-appropriate play-based interview in English with the Kindergarten Principal. For primary, students take Maths and English tests and have an English interview, combined with a review of previous school records. For Lower and Upper Secondary, students complete a CAT4 cognitive test, an English writing task and an English interview, with results considered alongside prior academic performance. Before the assessment date, parents are to email required documents. 3. Within five working days of the assessment, if the school has received complete documentation, TH School informs parents of the results. If the student meets requirements and a place is available, the school issues an offer letter by email. In some cases, this may be a conditional offer with specific recommendations to support the student’s learning. Class placement is made according to year of birth, although a student may occasionally be placed in a lower grade where prior performance or English level suggests this is more appropriate. If classes are full, the student may be placed on a waiting list or invited to re-apply after 3–6 months if entry requirements are not yet met. 4. Parents confirm acceptance of the offer by carefully reading the conditions in the offer letter and paying the required enrollment and registration fees. The school then guides families through the next steps, including submitting original versions of previous report cards, a certified copy of the birth certificate or passport, a 4×6 portrait photo and (for Grade 10 entry) the lower secondary graduation certificate. At this stage, families also follow the school’s tuition-fee payment schedule for the upcoming school year. 5. Before the official first day of classes, new students and their parents are invited to attend an orientation day at the campus. Families will receive practical guidance about daily routines, meet key teachers and staff, and have time to become familiar with classrooms and shared spaces. The school also provides student uniforms and beginning-of-year stationery to help children prepare for the start of term. |

Waitlist
|
Waitlist RGSV does not publish a formal waitlist. Where a place is not immediately available, admissions staff indicate that a place may become available in the future and will contact families if such a place opens. The school also limits certain scholarships (for example, up to 20 Academic Scholarship seats per year) and may adjust allocations based on applicant quality and funding. | Waitlist TH School does operate a waitlist system. According to the school’s admissions guide, when a class has no available places, the school places qualified applicants on a waiting list. If an accepted student does not take up their place or if a space becomes available, the school contacts families on the waitlist in order of readiness and assessment results. If a student does not yet meet entry requirements, the school may ask them to re-apply after 3–6 months, depending on the student’s English level or academic development. |
