Students of Lac Hong University (Dong Nai) have the longest Tet holiday. Mr. Lam Thanh Hien - Principal of Lac Hong University - said that the school's students have 5-6 weeks off for Tet. Of which, students of the 2023 class will have 6 weeks off for Tet, from December 28, 2024 to February 10, 2025. Students of the 2024 class will have 5 weeks off for Tet, from January 4 to February 10, 2025. "Most of the school's students are from the provinces, including many provinces in the North, Central and Central Highlands. Letting students have an early Tet holiday and go to school late will avoid the peak travel time during Tet. It is easier and cheaper for students to buy train and bus tickets" - Mr. Hien said. Although the Tet holiday does not last for 2 years, Ho Chi Minh City University of Law also gives students a 4-week Tet holiday. Students will have Tet holiday from January 18 to February 16, 2025. The second semester of the 2024-2025 school year will start on February 17. According to this university, the holiday schedule has been carefully considered by the school to create conditions for students to have enough time to rest, while ensuring that their study plans are not interrupted. Many universities give students 3 weeks off such as Open University of Ho Chi Minh City, Information Technology (Ho Chi Minh City National University), Ho Chi Minh City Bank, Ton Duc Thang, Ho Chi Minh City Technical Education, Foreign Trade, Ho Chi Minh City Architecture... Meanwhile, many universities give students 2 weeks off for Tet from January 20 to February 2 such as Van Hien, Ho Chi Minh City Foreign Language - Information Technology, Hanoi Pedagogy, University of Technology (Hanoi National University) ... On the 6th day of Tet (February 3, 2025), students must return to normal study according to the schedule.
