The Laos Ministry of Education and Sports (MES) reported that over the last four years approximately 2,900 students per year have left Laos to study abroad in 26 different countries.
In 2013 alone, 2,150 students pursued scholarships to study overseas.

Those who study in Vietnam have to learn Vietnamese language for a minimum of one year at Laos National University before coming to Vietnam.
In addition, the Vietnamese language is seen as a foreign language and is included in the curriculum at secondary schools, boarding schools and schools for overseas Vietnamese.
