US university diligence
Confirm the contracting legal entity and teaching site, the specific program approval, award issuer, credit recognition, current accreditation scope, student-protection arrangements and delivery capacity before treating this as a viable partner. This is an editorial diligence prompt, not a finding of a defect.
For general information only, not legal advice. Confirm requirements with qualified counsel and the relevant Vietnamese authorities before acting.
