Vietnam ranks 5th among international students in US

ABO/NDO- Vietnam has the fifth largest number of international students in the US, up one place from last year, according to the “Open Doors” report released by the Institute of International Education (IIE).

In addition, Vietnam continues to rank second in the number of international students attending community colleges in the US.

Vietnamese students have increased in almost all levels of education, up 6.5% in graduate programmes, up 23.3% in non-degree programmes and up 4.4% in optional practical training programmes.

Based on the overall economic size and measured through GDP output, Vietnam has more students studying in the US more than any other country in the world.

Vietnamese students also continue to demonstrate a strong footing in strategically important subjects across US institutions, such as science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM) and business/management studies.

The percentage of Vietnamese students pursuing STEM and business/management majors are 47.1% and 25.6% respectively.
“As the US approaches the 10th anniversary of the US-Vietnam comprehensive partnership, the Open Doors data is demonstrable proof that education remains a cornerstone of the bilateral relationship, while the nature of our current educational cooperation is already strategic”, said Genevieve Judson-Jourdain, US Assistant Cultural Affairs Officer.
