Many universities prepare safe accommodation for new students

(NLDO) - Immediately after the benchmark scores are announced on the afternoon of August 20, new students can contact the university for support in finding reputable dormitories and accommodations.

Ready to welcome new students

Speaking to reporters, MSc. Pham Thai Son, Director of the Admissions and Communications Center - Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade, said that the school has organized thorough training for the team of collaborators, supporting the reception of new students on the day of admission procedures.

Student volunteers are thoroughly trained.

This year, Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade recruits 8,300 students. In previous years, on the first day of admission procedures, new students and their families often had to wait in line for quite a long time. To shorten the time, this year the school organized thorough training for collaborators on how to arrange admission notices, check and verify student information..., while also increasing support and arranging resting areas for relatives of new students.

"The team of collaborators are students currently studying at the school. Within 12 hours of opening the registration portal, the school received more than 300 students registering to volunteer" - MSc. Son informed.

Mr. Le Van Hoang, Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry’s Youth Union, said that 1,200 dormitory spaces are reserved for new students. After completing the admission application and having a student identification number, students can register online to reserve a dormitory space.

The dormitory of Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City has more than 2000 places, this year the school reserved about 500 places for new students with full facilities. In addition, the school's Youth Union also organizes activities to support finding accommodation near the school, and coordinates with new students to get a Honda driver's license.

Ms. Ngo Thi Xuan, Deputy Head of Admissions and Communications Department - Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City, said that as soon as the school announced the admission scores, new students could register for the dormitory immediately. Choosing to stay in the dormitory is a way to ensure safety and save costs for those who are new to living and studying in Ho Chi Minh City.

The dormitory of Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City is located on the campus (the campus is in Thu Duc City). It only takes students about 5 minutes to walk to the lecture hall, next to it is the library, canteen, soccer field, tennis court, pickleball court,...

Area security and fire safety are the criteria that the Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry Youth Union prioritizes when finding accommodations for new students.

Replicating the safe boarding house model

To avoid the situation of "losing money and getting hurt" due to being scammed by bad guys while looking for a room, Hung Vuong University has implemented a safe accommodation model for new students.

Lecturers and students of Hung Vuong University surveyed dormitories for new students on the morning of August 19.

According to MSc. Nguyen Thi Mai Binh, Head of Training Department - Hung Vuong University, Ho Chi Minh City, this school year, the school moved to a new campus in An Nhon Ward. The old dormitory is quite far from the main campus, making it inconvenient for students to travel. Therefore, the school has flexibly decided to switch 100% to a safe boarding house model.

MSc. Binh said that this model has been implemented for several years now, in parallel with supporting dormitories for students. Starting in early July, the school has coordinated with local police to search for safe and reputable student housing areas.

"Information about the accommodation is verified and carefully screened, helping students avoid the risk of being scammed when making deposits or other problems that may arise" - Master Binh emphasized.

In addition, the school also supports new students to live with alumni or previous students.

At Van Lang University, the dormitory building has 1,026 rooms. Each room has a balcony, fully furnished with air conditioning, mini fridge, private bathroom, hot and cold water heater, study desk, bookshelf, wardrobe, and separate personal bed.

"Fancy" dormitory space of Van Lang University

Every year, the school also conducts surveys to find nearly 1,000 reputable accommodation addresses in the area near the school. Students from previous courses will directly advise and pick up new students to choose accommodation when they come to complete admission procedures.
