The study aims to comprehensively assess the physical fitness of female students at Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City (VNU-HCM). The assessment has been conducted on 3,023 nineteen-year-old female students at VNU-HCM, with the use of various methods including document synthesis and analysis, surveys, pedagogical testing, and statistical analysis. The fitness results would then be compared with the physical fitness indexes of average Vietnamese females, and of other age-same female students from different universities, such as Vietnam National University, Hanoi; the University of Danang; Can Tho University; and Ho Chi Minh City University. Findings: Based on the Ministry of Education and Training’s Criteria 53/2008, the physical fitness status of 19-year-old female students at VNU-HCM shows that 4.71% are rated “Good,” 5.89% “Pass,” and 89.94% “Fail.” Compared with average Vietnamese girls and other students of the universities, VNU-HCM students are considered to perform better in speed, lower-limb muscular strength, endurance, and agility.
