CityU Financial Assistance Scheme
Introduction
Supplementing the Government Financial
Assistance Scheme, the CityU Financial Assistance Scheme offers bursaries and/or
interest-free loans to assist full-time local undergraduate students*
who face financial hardship or whose financial needs are inadequately met by the
Government Grants and/or Loans. These awards are donated by private
organizations and individuals and are allocated primarily on the basis of
financial need. In some circumstances, the students' field of studies and
academic performance may also be considered as governed by regulations. Needy
students should submit the completed application forms accordingly.
Each year, different rounds of applications may be invited, subject to the
availability of bursary / loan fund. Needy students are encouraged to make
prior appointment to meet officers of Student Finance Team at Student
Development Services for financial advice.
(* Please note that the available
bursaries/loans are mainly to assist full-time local undergraduate students
studying government-funded programmes.)
Full-time local undergraduate students who have
genuine financial need are eligible to submit applications.
UGC-funded local associate degree students who have genuine financial need and have achieved a CGPA of 2.7 or above may apply for Swire Bursaries through this scheme.
Value of the bursary / loan
Range HK$8,000 - HK$40,000, depending on the financial needs of the applicants.
