Locations
- Binh Duong, Dong Nai, and near HCMC: Just outside the bustle of Ho Chi Minh City, these areas balance city convenience with a slower pace. In Binh Duong, VUS centers are in Thủ Dầu Một, Bến Cát, and Dĩ An, expect cheaper rent, less traffic, and a quieter lifestyle while staying within easy reach of HCMC. In Đồng Nai (Biên Hòa), there are two centrally located VUS campuses, offering urban amenities with lower living costs than the big city.
- Provincial Campuses in the Mekong Delta and Highlands: Experience Vietnam’s natural beauty and traditional lifestyle (think rivers, rice fields, and mountain landscapes) ideal for teachers seeking authentic cultural immersion.
- Suburban HCMC and Neighboring Provincial Capitals: Enjoy a calmer environment than the city center with full modern conveniences and a strong sense of community, while remaining well connected to HCMC.
- HCMC City Center and Coastal Campuses: Right in the heart of the action, Ho Chi Minh City has ~30 VUS locations across most districts, ideal for those who love a fast-paced urban lifestyle. For coastal living, options include Đà Nẵng (a laid-back beach city with mountains, sea air, and weekend trips to Hội An or the Marble Mountains)and Vũng Tàu, a relaxed seaside city a few hours from HCMC known for long beaches, fresh seafood, and a close-knit community.
