Welcome

The University of South Wales is a popular choice amongst Vietnamese students and has been welcoming students from Vietnam to its three campuses for many years.

Students from Vietnam have appreciated the scholarships offered by the University and have enjoyed the high standard of living but relatively low cost of living that South Wales offers. Students appreciate the friendly, safe and welcoming environment of the university and benefit hugely from the location – surrounded by breathtaking scenery and impressive historical landscapes, boasting excellent transport links and the buzz of two dynamic Welsh cities.

We hope you find the information for Vietnamese students in this section of the website useful. Please contact us if you have any questions or queries!
