About this scholarship
HKBU awards entrance scholarships on academic merit, and separately on athletic and other achievement, to non-local students entering undergraduate programmes.
The university is smaller than Hong Kong's largest institutions and particularly strong in communication, media and creative arts, which makes it worth looking at if those are your fields.

Which universities can you place me into?
We place students into a range of UK and international universities, and we shortlist the best-fit options for your grades, budget and goals rather than pushing a single school. On some pages we run dedicated SGD 50 placement drives for a specific partner university, and we are always adding more partners. Tell us your goals and your counsellor will map out your options.
