USUAI is a consortium of accredited Colleges and Universities in the USA that provide articulation programs for residents in Vietnam. These programs allow students to study in Vietnam up to 75% of the program and then transfer all credits earned to the US partner schools to complete their study and graduate. This arrangement requires a much lower tuition fee (reduced up to 80%), while remaining in Vietnam for a time before studying in the USA. Students may also choose a program to study the entire time in the USA. Partial list of schools from the USA participating in this program: • Baldwin-Wallace College, Ohio • Calsouthern University • California Miramar University • Northcentral University (Arizona) • Northern State University (South Dakota) • Northeastern State University (Oklahoma) • Clark-Lewis State University (IDaho) • Lewis State University (Colorado) Partial list of Vietnamese schools participating in this program: • Hanoi University of Technology and Science (Since 2002): over 200 MBA graduates from Northcentral University • HCM University of Industry (Since 2005) (With 200 BBA graduates from NCU and 200 from Miramar University) and • National University, Hanoi - University of Economics and Business since 2006, has recruited over 100 MBA and DBA students for NCU) • IHTC has sent many students to Northeastern State University for 2+2 BBA programs.
