Study Abroad

As On-Site Study-Abroad becomes an increasingly popular choice among Vietnamese students and their parents, Duy Tan University (DTU) offers international-standard education in partnership with Troy University (US) right in Danang. Students follow an American curriculum and graduate with globally recognized degrees from both DTU and Troy University - at optimal cost, in a safe environment, and building readiness for integration.

No need to leave Vietnam for international degree

With the cost of studying reaching billions of VND, the pressures of adapting, and global uncertainties, many families are reconsidering how to invest in their children’s higher education. Instead of the substantial expense of four years of overseas studies, On-Site Study-Abroad meets many of students’ and parents’ criteria while offering the chance to possess an international degree and enjoy a world-class educational environment right in Vietnam and graduate with an edge in one’s career in Vietnam in these times of integration.

Unlike many short-term partnership programs, students enrolled in the Troy-University program at DTU study a formal American-standard program, entirely in English, and earn a bachelor’s degree directly awarded by Troy University in:

-    TROY Business Administration,
-    TROY Computer Science, or
-    TROY Tourism & Hospitality Management.

The Troy program at DTU in Danang offers students three clear advantages:

-    International grading standards: Students study with American-standard textbooks, teaching methods, and assessment systems.
-    Cost efficiency: The total cost is substantially lower than completing an entire degree abroad.
-    Flexible pathways: Students may do the entire program in Vietnam or transfer to the US if they so choose.

As recruiters increasingly value global competencies, earning an international degree in Vietnam gives graduates a competitive advantage in the job market.

“I used to think that studying overseas was the only way to experience an international environment,” Doan Le Anh Thu, a third-year student of TROY Business Administration, explains. “But in the Troy program in Danang, I study entirely in English, I regularly do group projects and presentations, and I learn with the same methods as students in the US. I also have many opportunities to interact with international students and I can participate in a two-week study program in Singapore. These are experiences I never imagined I could have while attending university in Vietnam.”

Transfer opportunities: Opening the door to an American experience when ready

One of the most attractive features of the Troy program is its transfer pathway to the US. Students may complete their first two or three years in Vietnam before transferring to the US for their final one or two years, provided they have a cumulative GPA of 2.5/4.0 or higher. For many parents, this offers a safe option without losing out on international experience.

This pathway addresses many of the inherent problems of studying abroad:

-    reduction of initial financial pressure,
-    additional time to prepare English proficiency, skills, and readiness,
-    better adaptation to international environment.

“This flexible transfer pathway saved my family a considerable amount,” Ton That Nguyen Hong, student of TROY Computer Science, explains. “It also gave me more time to improve my English, develop international study skills, and fully prepare before moving to the US for my studies and to expand my knowledge for the journey ahead.”

Thirteen billion VND in scholarships: Expanding opportunities for Vietnamese students

For this 2026 admissions season, the Troy program in Danang is offering scholarships totaling 13 billion VND.

Scholarships covering 30%, 50%, or 100% of tuition are awarded based on:

-    2026 High-School Graduation Exam results,
-    English proficiency (IELTS certificate).

This is how Troy University endeavors to reduce the financial burden while giving many talented students from Central Vietnam access to an international university environment. Even more attractive, Troy University scholarships in Danang remain valid throughout the four-year program, provided students meet renewal conditions. Many DTU students enrolled in the Troy program have already saved a substantial amount through these scholarships.

“I received a scholarship fully covering my tuition right from the start thanks to my high results at the High School Graduation Exam, which greatly reduced the financial burden,” Do Minh Chau, second-year student of TROY Tourism & Hospitality Management, says.

“It has allowed me to focus better on my studies and to participate in extracurricular activities to develop my skills and optimally prepare for my future career.”

Gen Z is recognized as a dynamic and practical generation that generally makes decisions based on long-term value. Choosing a training program that ensures international quality while maximizing affordability is a top priority. With its advantages concerning curriculum, scholarships, and flexible pathways, the Troy program at DTU in Danang is becoming an ideal option for students seeking to earn a US degree in Vietnam.
