If you have a diploma from your country you do not need to get another one in the U.S. You can use the one you have to attend colleges or universities here in the U.S.

you would have to contact the school your interested in attending. Some may allow it other might not. Every college has its own entrance guidelines. good luck

You do not need a high school diploma to go to university here. You just need to qualify on the necessary entrance exams.

No, you do not need one. But if your first language is not english you will have to take an english proficiency test. Also, you will haveto take a placement test in science and english....which is only to see in which math or english class you belong. If you are planning to attend a very competitive University, try taking the SAT and nailing it down....it is not hard if you ar good in math, plus you can get scholarships based on your grades. Try contacting Vietnamese groups in the USA they can help you and guide you with everything, from immigration paperwork to searching for scholarships. Good luck!

You can have a High Diploma from any country that is certified by the country board of education on your transcripts, if the grading system is different from the USA it has to be translated and notarized.

as long as you have a diploma from a highschool in your home country, you can legally attend an american university. the school's main concern will be your grades of course, but also any problems you might encounter in getting a student visa. please make sure you are eligible to enter the united states for study before applying. your school should help you with getting the appropriate paperwork. good luck~~
