With increased interest in UK pre-university programmes from Vietnamese students and the success of past events, we are organising a Pathway to University Mission in Hanoi, Haiphong and Ho Chi Minh City (Haiphong is 100 kilometres north of Hanoi and the third biggest city for the UK market in Vietnam).
Designed to be an information fair for students and parents to explore access to UK universities, the event is open to all UK education institutions which provide courses leading up to UK degrees, including A-level, IB, international foundation, HND and foundation degrees.
The event will give participating institutions the opportunity to:
- raise their profile and recruit international students
- develop and forge links with local schools
- network with local education agents
- enhance understanding of the local market.

If you are being represented by an agency, please make certain that the selected agency represents your school only and no others, to ensure that your school has the quality representation it deserves.
