CityUHK Entrance Scholarship for International Students

About this scholarship

The CityUHK Entrance Scholarship for International Students is a merit scholarship scheme for international students admitted to full-time government-funded bachelor's degree programs at City University of Hong Kong. The official admission page lists three scholarship levels: Top Scholarship, Full Tuition Scholarship, and Half Tuition Scholarship. The Top Scholarship is renewable full tuition plus an annual living allowance of up to HKD 60,000, covering university-managed accommodation and partial living expenses. The award is recorded as varies because scholarship level is merit-determined and can range from half tuition to full tuition plus living allowance. Applicants do not submit a separate scholarship application; CityUHK awards the appropriate scholarship level based on merit after admission. Recipients must meet the minimum cumulative GPA requirement each year to renew the scholarship. The same page also describes a Diversity Grant for non-local students from underrepresented nationalities who are not Top Scholarship recipients, and the HKSAR Government Scholarship Fund for outstanding non-local students.
