Being a top score achiever in 2005's national university entrance exam, she is known for her excellence in both academic performance and extracurricular activity in Vietnam Communist Youth League, an organization which has trained enormous notable and high-profile communist party chiefs since the Party was found such as Vietnam’s PM Nguyễn Tấn Dũng or Vietnam General Secretary of Communist Party Nguyễn Phú Trọng.[2]

Huong graduated with first class honor in 2009. The topic of her graduate dissertation was 'Foreign public relation in time of political crisis.' However, there's a rumor among students of the same batch that the reason she achieves such high score is from her father's power, not from her ability. In 2011, Huong finished her master's degree in "International Business" at University of Birmingham and drop-out from Ohio State University.
