HONG KONG SUB-DEGREES

Every year, we set aside several senior-year places for current students or graduates of a full-time associate degree (AD) or two-year or higher diploma programme (HD) from a community college in Hong Kong.

Where entrance requirements are met, final-year students are also eligible to apply provided their AD or HD has been completed by August 2023.

We welcome your application through our Direct Admissions Scheme to Senior Year Places.

Senior-year applicants may choose up to three programmes. You may also include first-year programmes in your selection. Find out more about our first-year programmes and entrance requirements.
