“UNH is very highly ranked for business programs and the community is pretty and quiet. It’s perfect for study life, very safe and the food is amazing! I actually discovered a delicious Vietnamese restaurant close to the UNH campus, which allowed me to experience my culture while living away from home. I participated in the Paul College of Business and Economics Honors program. This program offered the chance to get to know my professors personally and establish as many connections with them as possible. I completed an independent study titled Microfinance and Women’s Empowerment: An Empirical Evidence in Vietnam, for which I came in third place! I also placed first for another project called, Corruption and Inward Foreign Direct Investment: A Panel Analysis in Asia.” ANH PHUOC THIEN NGUYEN, VIETNAM UNDERGRADUATE GSSP: BUSINESS & ECONOMICS
