The International Program runs Elementary (K–5) and Middle School–High School (6–12). The Integrated Bilingual Program launched in the 2023-2024 academic year combines Vietnamese curriculum with American education. The English Language Development (ELD) Program provides intensive English development with seven levels to prepare students for the US curriculum within about a year.
The school offers a Bilingual Program for K–12. In Middle School and High School, students have 12–18 periods of English per week, with 90% of instructional time taught by foreign teachers, and the program uses the Cognitive Academic Language Learning (CALLA) model to integrate English with other subjects.
In Early Childhood, the Bilingual Program uses Language Immersion Philosophies, drawing on Montessori and Reggio Emilia. This language immersion approach is part of the program for early learners.
APU American International School – Da Nang offers a U.S.-licensed K–12 program at 299 Tran Dai Nghia Street in Ngu Hanh Son District, with both International and Bilingual tracks on one campus. The International Program follows a curriculum licensed by the U.S. Department of Education and aligned with Common Core standards, taught entirely in English. The Bilingual Program meets the Vietnamese Ministry of Education and Training requirements while integrating an American standard curriculum, with 12–18 English periods per week and instruction that uses the CALLA model to link English with other subjects. Facilities at the Da Nang campus include laboratories, music and drama spaces, IT rooms, library, cafeteria, and physical education areas. A distinctive feature is APU’s academic pathway: high-school students can take Advanced Placement (AP) courses and join the College Bridge Program to earn U.S. university credits while still at school, potentially shortening their degree by up to two years.
