There has been a scarcity of research on how EFL students employ the selfassessment checklist in the higher education setting of Vietnam. This study focuses on investigating second-year English major students’ reflection on the role and the use of selfassessment checklists in their writing process. The use of self-assessment checklists was reported to enhance the students' self-assessment abilities and facilitated the identification of strengths and weaknesses in their writing. The study suggests integrating self-assessment checklists in EFL writing instruction, emphasizing the advantages of promoting self-regulated learning and empowering students to enhance their writing skills.
