Campus Services
Welcome to VinUniversity, where transitioning to campus life opens up exciting opportunities for growth and connection. As a first-year student, you’ll reside in our vibrant dormitories, designed to promote co-living, co-working, and co-learning. This environment encourages you to build meaningful relationships, share diverse academic and cultural experiences, and cultivate respect and responsibility toward others.
Alongside our supportive living arrangements, we prioritize your well-being through comprehensive services. Our Medical Service provides assistance for various health needs, including treatment for minor injuries, over-the-counter medications, and general health advice. Additionally, our dedicated Counseling services offer a safe and confidential space to discuss any concerns—whether related to academic pressures, personal challenges, or emotional well-being. Our counselors are here to support you in navigating stress, anxiety, and relationship struggles.
RESIDENTIAL LIFE
We understand that moving out of home and moving into a university residence is an exciting time with a lot for you to learn about. At VinUniversity, you will find that living on campus is an integral part of your first-year experience. We hope that you will develop a sense of respect and care for others; make responsible choices about your lifestyle; share your academic, social, and cultural experiences with other residents; and learn to live independently yet in harmony with a diverse group of people.
All first-year students are required to live in VinUni dormitory, co-living, co-working, and co-learning together. We strongly believe that living together allows all you to make social connections, study, learn from one another, and build lasting bonds that will be beneficial throughout your life.
