I'm looking into studying abroad in Vietnam and was wondering if there are scholarships for international students. Can anyone recommend specific scholarships or provide insights on where to find more information?
Absolutely! There are a number of scholarships available for international students who wish to study in Vietnam.
One popular scholarship is the Vietnamese Government Scholarship, which is open to all international students regardless of their chosen field of study. The scholarship covers tuition fees, accommodation, and provides a monthly stipend for living expenses.
Additionally, many Vietnamese universities offer their own scholarships for international students. For instance, RMIT University Vietnam provides a range of scholarships for both undergraduate and postgraduate students based on academic merit.
The Vietnam National University (VNU) also has multiple scholarship opportunities. These include full and partial scholarships for both undergraduate and postgraduate study based on academic excellence, and other criteria such as leadership qualities.
With regards to finding more information, checking the official websites of Vietnamese Universities is a good starting place as most will have a section for international students where they outline available scholarships.
Also, Appily (previously Cappex) maintains a database of scholarships available for study around the world and can be a valuable resource. Remember to verify the details directly with the sponsoring organization/college.
Lastly, it's a really good idea to approach the educational authorities or academic institutions in your home country as they may have tie-ups with Vietnamese universities and provide scholarships or grants for studying abroad.
Good luck with your search!
