Fulbright Program in Vietnam
Vietnamese Student Program
The Fulbright Program in Vietnam recruits and nominates young Vietnamese professionals for Master’s degree programs at U.S. universities. The Program provides 20 to 25 fully-funded fellowships for early to mid-career professionals on an annual basis. Most Fulbright Fellowship recipients will earn a master's degree in two years. Since 1992, more than 350 Vietnamese students have participated in the program.
In order to successfully compete for the fellowship, candidates must have at least 1 year’s work experience in their proposed field of study after earning a bachelor’s degree by the time of application, strong English language skills, and a clearly focused study objective in a field supported by the program.
