Scholarships / Prizes at a glance

To recognize students' academic and non-academic achievement, the University offers various types of scholarships and prizes which are donated by individuals, private organizations, professional bodies or academic departments.  In general, the award value varies and it may range from HK$5,000 to HK$100,000 each.

The majority of scholarships and prizes are awarded based on academic performance and recipients are nominated by their respective Colleges/Schools/Academic Departments. Current students with outstanding academic performance may also be nominated for "CityU Scholarship" and "HKSAR Government Scholarship", "Hong Kong Jockey Club Undergraduate Scholarship" which are renewable subjected to students' continued good academic performance. 

For non-final year undergraduate students who would like to study overseas, they can apply for "HSBC Overseas Scholarship".


The University will identify high caliber students with outstanding academic and/or non-academic achievement for the entrance scholarships upon successful admission; students do not have to submit application separately. Entrance Scholarships are available for both local students and non-local students.

For non-academic awards, such as Community Service Awards, Outbound Exchange Scholarships, Sports Scholarships, Fang Brothers Whole Person Development Scholarships and FANs Awards, Student Development Services (SDS) will invite nominations from respective College/School/Department and/or put up notices and publicize through e-mail and CityU Announcement Portal (CAP) from time to time to invite applications.
