Clarify your long-term vision first

Identify the industries booming in both Germany and Vietnam—engineering, IT, renewable energy, and healthcare all seek bilingual talent.

List course outcomes, professional accreditations, and migration pathways to understand how each option supports your visa and career plans.

Evaluate university support services

Look beyond rankings. Investigate employability scores, mentorship programs, and Vietnamese student societies that ease cultural adjustment.

Request course outlines to check group projects, internship requirements, and research components that align with your learning style.

Highlights

  • Book virtual campus tours to feel each university’s vibe before applying.
  • Compare graduate salary data using StepStone and LinkedIn insights.
  • Chat with current Vietnamese students via our alumni network evenings.

Balance budget with opportunity

Create a three-tier shortlist: aspirational, target, and safety options. Factor in scholarships and living costs to calculate your true investment.

Discuss finances openly with your family. We facilitate bilingual meetings so everyone understands deposit schedules and refund policies.
