United World College (UWC) Scholarship Program is in its third year back in Vietnam. This is a two-year full scholarship program to gain an International Baccalaureate degree at some of the 10 UWCs in the world. In 2002 a girl from Phan Boi Chau high school in Vinh City received a scholarship from this program to study in Pearson College of the Pacific in Victoria, Canada. In 2003, one girl from Foreign Language Gifted School in Hanoi was sent to United World College of the Adriatic in Italy, one girl from Le Hong Phong Gifted School in Ho Chi Minh City to Pearson College of the Pacific in Canada and one boy from An Giang was sent to Mahindra United World College of India.

This year, Pearson and Mahindra Colleges reserve two full scholarships for Vietnamese students who are currently doing well in grade 11 and have strong desire and commitment for community services.

A National Committee for this scholarship was formed later last year under the coordination of Mr. David Baird, Principal of Middle and High School of United National International School in Vietnam. The Committee will be in charge of the selection process and raising fund to cover any costs related to the program or to create more scholarships for Vietnamese students.                      

Because it is a really wonderful scholarship program, Vietnamese students would be grateful if you can share them the information you are receiving. Please see attached for details of the program in English and Vietnamese and the bilingual application forms.

 For more information, feel free to contact Mr. Baird (dbaird@unishanoi.org) or myself.

Thank you very much for your work.

Sincerely,
