“Where is the university?” is a question many visitors to Cambridge ask, but no one can give them a clear answer, for there is no wall to be found around the university. The university is the city. You can find the classroom buildings, libraries, museums and offices of the university all over the city. And most of its members are the students and teachers or professors of the thirty-one colleges. Cambridge was already a developing town long before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago. It grew up by the river Granta, as the Cam was once called.

University Entrance Examination is very important for Vietnamese students. High school graduates have to take it and get high results to be admitted to universities. The pressure on the candidates remains very high despite measures taken to reduce stress, since securing a place in a state university is considered a major step towards a successful career for young people, especially those from rural areas or disadvantaged families. In 2004, nearly 1 million Vietnamese students took the University Entrance Examination, but on average only 1 out of 5 candidates succeeded. Normally, candidates take 3 exam subjects, each lasting 180 minutes, from a fixed group of subjects:
– Group A: Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry
– Group B: Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry
– Group C: Literature, History, and Geography

As Chinese society changes, higher education is undergoing major transformations. The university model of the United States and other Western countries has a powerful influence. New trends in Chinese higher education are attracting the attention of global educators. Since the establishment of Western-oriented modern universities at the end of the nineteenth century, Chinese higher education has continued to evolve. Over the past two decades, tremendous economic development in China has stimulated reforms in higher education that have resulted in remarkable changes.
