Pham Thi Ngoc Bich - a former student at The American University in Vietnam - AUV, successfully transferred to Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) with double majors in Business and Graphic Design, without taking IELTS, GMAT or TOEFL.
Studying for a dual major is challenging for many students due to its pressure. There are roughly twice as many classes to take at once, however, this is a great opportunity for Ngoc Bich to practice discipline and develop time management skills. Earning both degrees in business and graphic design at the same time allows her to graduate in the least amount of time possible, saving between six and eight years. Furthermore, there is a strong relationship between graphic design and business; they complement each other and help each other advance. Additionally, Bich would likely have extra benefits in the future workplace due to the varied knowledge base she has acquired thanks to her dual majors.
Located in Richmond, Virginia, VCU is one of the top 3 public research universities in the state with more than 200 programs across diverse professions and attracting students from all 50 states and more than 100 countries around the world.
