- University of Calgary (#9 Best University in Canada, #201 – 250 in the world according to THE World University Rankings 2024); scholarship of 8,000 CAD/first year.
Starting to intend to study abroad from 11th grade, Ngoc Tu chose Canada as her destination because of the quality of education and reasonable tuition fees. Realizing that the Canadian education system prioritizes students with good academic achievements, Ngoc Tu prepared very carefully for her "sea voyage".
Admitting to being quite "lazy" and rarely participating in extracurricular activities, Ngoc Tu focused on GPA, essays as well as foreign language certificates to compensate for what was lacking. Ngoc Tu's average scores for all academic years are maintained above 9.0. For the essay, Ngoc Tu spent 2 evenings writing. She clearly stated her goals and orientations in the present and future. In addition, she also owns an IELTS 7.5 certificate.
Having been attached to GFS since 3rd grade, Ngoc Tu shared that GFS has helped her mature a lot more. Not only knowledge and lectures in class, she also has multi-dimensional and practical experiences through activities and precious friendships of her student years. These are the necessary luggage to help her become a more confident and courageous version of herself today.
In August, Ngoc Tu will set foot in the "maple leaf country" to pursue her dreams. At the University of Alberta - a school with a history of more than 100 years and consistently ranked among the world's top in terms of training quality, she plans to study Computer Science. She believes that pursuing a major that has a profound impact in all fields will receive open job opportunities.
"Ngoc Tu is an honest, responsible and very studious student. She always sets goals for herself, finds solutions to achieve those goals as well as focuses on implementing them in the most careful and meticulous way. I am very confident that with the maturity over time and the values that GFS has nurtured for her over the years, she will achieve success on the chosen path" - Ms. Nguyen Thu Thuy, Homeroom Teacher of 12A3 shared about her student.
Let's wish Ngoc Tu and her dreams will reach greater success than expected!
