The core goal is to create real impact: improve academic English skills, build an outstanding profile and expand scholarship - study abroad - career opportunities at home and abroad.

Mr. Nguyen Tien Nam, Chairman of SunUni Academy, shared: "This is SunUni's long-term commitment to Vietnamese education . We want to turn the S80 International Education Scholarship into a journey to 'unlock' potential: academic foreign languages, critical thinking, digital skills and real-life experiences for learners to confidently step out into the world."

"Opportunities are only truly meaningful when accompanied by a personalized support roadmap. S80 connects resources inside and outside SunUni to closely follow each candidate to their destination," Mr. Nam added.
