Scholarship impact on higher education in Vietnam

Overview

Scholarship programs are facilitating higher education for various individuals in Vietnam, enabling them to overcome financial and logistical barriers.

Trần Thế Trung, the 19th champion of the academic competition ‘Đường Lên Đỉnh Olympia’, utilized a $35,000 scholarship prize to fund studies at RMIT University in Vietnam after travel restrictions and changing interests diverted him from his original plan to study in Australia.

Other recipients have used different funding sources to pursue academic goals. Nguyen Xuan Tho, a hospitality professional, was awarded the ‘Chắp cánh ước mơ’ scholarship from RMIT University Vietnam to study Tourism and Hotel Management after a nine-year hiatus. Additionally, Dr. Pham Quang Huy, Principal of Dong Thap College, credited his academic success to the ‘Tiếp sức đến trường’ scholarship from Tuoi Tre newspaper, which helped him and his siblings overcome poverty and complete their studies.
