US Higher Education Fair in Da Nang
A US Higher Education Fair, which introduced 30 accredited universities and colleges from the USA to potential students, was held in Da Nang recently by the Institute of International Education (IIE).
According to IIE’s Open Doors 2011, their annual report on international academic mobility, the number of Vietnamese students attending US institutions of higher education in the academic year 2010-2011 was 14,888. Viet Nam ranked eighth for students at universities and second for students at community colleges in the USA.
The fair was part of a series of education fairs held by IIE across Asia over the last 20 years. It plays an important role in connecting US universities and colleges with international students, and those from Viet Nam in particular.
The event gave the city’s students the opportunity to meet representatives from US institutions of higher education.
