Internet addiction leaves serious negative impacts on students’ physical and mental health. This study examined the prevalence of Internet addiction among college students in Hanoi, Vietnam and the relationship between Internet addiction and its related factors. 25.5% of the students in this study fitted the criteria of Internet addiction. Factors that correlated with Internet addiction included Internet usage, academic performance, loneliness, and stress. Internet addiction was not affected by gender, family situation, self-esteem, life satisfaction, depression, and anxiety. Prevention and intervention measures should be implemented inside and outside of universities to raise students’ awareness of Internet addiction.
