Family Connect Newsletter Semester 1 - April 2025

The Family Connect Newsletter Semester 1 - April 2025 from RMIT Vietnam provides important information about the academic schedule, key dates to remember, and student support activities.

It is a busy but exciting period, and your encouragement can make a big difference. A gentle chat about learning support options or campus activities could be just the motivation they need. With consistency and a proactive mindset, we believe every student can make the most of their learning journey.

Earlier this month, we were proud to celebrate the 2025 Graduation Ceremony — a joyful milestone for thousands of students and their families. As our new graduates step into the next chapter, we believe they will carry the confidence and skills to thrive in their careers ahead.

Thank you for staying connected with RMIT. We hope this newsletter brings you useful and meaningful updates from the heart of our community.

RMIT Vietnam Family Connect.
