Why Vietnamese Student are Choosing the US
Did you know, the US is the world’s second-leading host country of Vietnamese students, after Japan. There are few reasons why the US is a popular destination for Vietnamese students. One is family ties. So many Vietnamese, especially in the central and southern Vietnam, have family members living in the US. Having family in the same country is helpful for many students that travel abroad because it provides extra support and allows them to visit while there!!
Another reason the US is a popular choice for Vietnamese students is the level of education. A degree from a US college or university can allow you to climb the career ladder and opens many doors for you. At the school fair you can talk to US schools and learn more about what makes their school the best choice for you.
The United States is a land full of entertainment which makes it a popular choice for many young students from Vietnam. Music, movies and television are incorporated into the daily lives of US students. Students enjoy going to music festivals with friends or catching up on their favorite Netflix shows. There is always something for everyone!
