A smaller private campus in the Mekong Delta region, offering a quieter and more affordable student environment. The Hau Giang location is less developed than Can Tho but comparable in affordability and regional character.
Tan Phu Thanh is in Chau Thanh A district, Hau Giang province — approximately 30 km from Can Tho city. The Mekong Delta setting means affordable living, tropical climate, and river delta geography. Access to Can Tho's wider hospital and transport infrastructure is available by road.
International student support should be confirmed directly with the university, including English-language academic delivery, visa assistance, and settlement support in a rural Mekong Delta setting.
Teaching phases
Pre-clinical sciences with English-medium support; Vietnamese language orientation runs alongside in the Mekong Delta setting.
Clinical rotations through Hau Giang provincial hospitals require growing Vietnamese for patient interaction.
Senior clinical years in the regional hospital ecosystem; proximity to Can Tho provides supplementary clinical access.
