This is a recollection of my own experience when applying for a doctoral study opportunity in the US. I hope it can serve as either a guide or a reference to help you prepare your profile and application for doctoral studies not only in the US but also other countries. This recollection is written in two languages: Vietnamese (display first) and English.

This reflection is inspired by the recent tragic incident in Hanoi. On September 12, 2023, at around 23:30 ICT (UTC+07:00), a devastating fire broke out in a nine-story microapartment building. Of the approximately 150 residents, 56 lost their lives and 37 were injured. My heartfelt condolences go out to the victims and their families. Here, I share my thoughts in both Vietnamese (first) and English.
