Saigon University will merge with Ba Ria - Vung Tau Pedagogical College following a decision issued by the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee on October 7. As a result of the merger, Saigon University will gain a new training facility located in Ba Ria.

Saigon University is responsible for taking over all physical facilities, assets, finances, legal rights and obligations, student records, and personnel files from the pedagogical college. Current students at Ba Ria - Vung Tau Pedagogical College will be transferred to Saigon University to continue their studies, with their legal rights and interests protected. Staff and employees will be reassigned to suitable positions based on job requirements and legal regulations.

All diplomas, certificates, and documents issued prior to the reorganization will remain legally valid.
