CAMBRIDGE, England, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cambridge International Education (Cambridge) has begun releasing the results of its June 2026 exam series to students worldwide. Entries for Cambridge International AS & A Levels rose 5% on last year, with almost 368,000 students in 3492 schools worldwide receiving Cambridge International AS & A Level results today. This continued growth reflects the increasing global demand for qualifications that provide a trusted route to higher education.

The trend towards Cambridge International AS & A Level qualifications is evident across Southeast Asia, with exam entries up 12% on June 2025 in both Indonesia and Thailand. There is also strong growth in Cambridge IGCSE entries in Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand, demonstrating continued confidence from schools and families in internationally recognised qualifications that prepare students to succeed at university and beyond.

“Congratulations to all our students receiving results today and next week,” said Rod Smith, Group Managing Director for International Education at Cambridge. “It’s encouraging to see continued growth across Southeast Asia, as more students choose Cambridge International AS & A Levels for the combination of deep subject knowledge and the skills universities and employers value most. This year’s continued growth shows that more students than ever recognise the power of that combination in a world shaped by AI. I believe Cambridge International AS & A Levels will matter even more in the years ahead.”

Southeast Asia June 2026 exam series highlights:

Mathematics remained the most popular Cambridge International AS & A Level subject across Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand. Science subjects also feature in the top five subjects, highlighting sustained demand for STEM education.Business was among the five most popular AS & A Level subjects in Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand, reflecting growing student interest in entrepreneurship and business skills.Schools in Malaysia made over 74,000 entries for Cambridge exams in the June series, with Malay as a Foreign Language continuing to be the most popular Cambridge IGCSE subject.

Across Southeast Asia, students continue to choose Cambridge qualifications because they provide flexible pathways to universities both locally and internationally. Increasing numbers of students are using Cambridge qualifications to access higher education across Asia, Australia, the UK and beyond.

Kevin Ebenezer, Director of University Pathways and Progression at Cambridge, said: “Cambridge International A Levels continue to earn the confidence of the world’s leading universities because they prepare students not simply to gain admission, but to thrive once they arrive. As higher education becomes increasingly competitive, universities are looking for students with academic depth, resilience, and the ability to think independently. Our qualifications develop those qualities. Today, Cambridge learners represent around one in eight international students entering UK universities, providing compelling evidence of the enduring value and global recognition of Cambridge International A Levels.”
