Opening the program, MSc. Le Dieu Linh, specialist in the Cooperation and Development Division, presented a report reviewing key activities throughout the admissions season. Through dozens of events of varying sizes and hundreds of in-person and online advising sessions, the Admissions Advising team helped promote the IBD@NEU International Bachelor’s Program and the BBAE@NEU Program to high school students nationwide in an effective and accessible way.

Although you are still students, you have demonstrated a sense of responsibility, professionalism, and organizational skills on a par with those of professionals.

The ceremony concluded in a warm atmosphere filled with pride and inspiration. More than simply a campaign review, it was also a moment to reflect on each member’s journey of growth—from tentative first steps to the confidence and composure they demonstrated when representing ISME before thousands of high school students and parents nationwide.

With a spirit of proactivity, initiative, and cooperation, students on the Admissions Advising and Communications teams have been helping build a dynamic and creative ISME with an increasingly strong presence in the high school and university student community.
