Master Trinh Huu Chung, Vice Rector in charge of Gia Dinh University, signed a notice adjusting the schedule for students to take holidays on Hung Vuong Ancestor Commemoration Day, April 30th, and May 1st, and switching to online learning to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
Accordingly, students of all courses will have a 7-day break, starting from April 27th to May 3rd. Students will study online for the following week and make up for the 2 corresponding days of classes in the week after the holiday.
Students at Gia Dinh University are required to wear face masks and wash their hands with hand sanitizer.
Specifically, second-year and third-year students will study online from May 8th to May 13th. Classes scheduled during the two holiday days (April 27th and 28th) will be made up on the corresponding two days of the week following the holiday (May 4th and 5th) via online learning.

Master Chung shared: “The school made this decision based on Official Document No. 1547 dated April 19th from the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee regarding the reactivation of the campaign to protect high-risk individuals in the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic, the Ministry of Education and Training's document on strengthening Covid-19 prevention and control, and the evolving situation of the pandemic. This also helps students save on travel costs during the holiday.”
