International/Non-JUPAS Admissions Scheme
We are delighted to invite you to apply to study at the University of Hong Kong. Our excellent academic standards, diverse campus, and extensive global programmes are just some of the many reasons why HKU is the leading university for outstanding students in Hong Kong and a favourite destination for bright minds from around the world.
Here, you’ll find everything you need to apply via our international or non-JUPAS admissions scheme. This section is for:
- 非本地学生 with an international qualification or other national examination qualifications other than Mainland China’s National Joint College Entrance Examination (NJCEE) or GaoKao.
- Local students with an international qualification or pending international qualification other than the HKDSE.
香港大学（港大）注意到近期社交媒体上有帖子声称可以通过中介申请港大，并承诺低入学要求以及无需标准成绩、雅思或托福分数、本科背景或其他要求即可直接录取。这些说法完全毫无根据，大学保留对相关人士采取法律行动的权利。
港大未授权任何中介组织在中国内地招生或录取学生，也没有所谓的教授推荐非本地学生入学的"内部推荐"机制。有意申请港大的非本地申请人必须直接向大学提交申请，只有符合必要要求的合格申请人才会被考虑录取。录取具有竞争性，以成绩为基础。
如发现学生伪造学历证书，港大将根据大学章程对其采取纪律处分，撤销其学生身份。

Submitting Applications
Before you submit your application, you are encouraged to carefully review our application guide below.
To ensure the stability of the application system, please note that regular upgrade and maintenance will be performed every Wednesday at 10:00am (Hong Kong Time) with a down time between 10:00am to 1:00pm. Please avoid editing or submitting your application during the maintenance period.
Applicants must input all their academic results, including both predicted and actual results, into the application system (instead of merely uploading the documents). The purpose of uploading the documents is solely for verification of the academic achievements of the applicant. If it is the counsellor who has access to the predicted/actual results only, the applicant must ensure that the counsellor has inputted them into the system. If the counsellor is unable to do so through the system, he/she shall contact the Admissions Office via email (counsellors@hku.hk). Failure to do so may result in application rejection.
Please note that the information provided on the website is subject to change. Applicants are recommended to check this website as well as their applicant accounts regularly for any updates or changes to the application information.
Fees and Scholarships
We aim to give deserving students from all over the world access to a top-quality education that opens doors globally, regardless of means or background. You (or your parents) only need to pay a fraction of the cost of education in Hong Kong, even though our educational standards are at an international level.
HKU offers a broad range of merit-based scholarships that support outstanding undergraduate students with one-off payments and provide renewable financial assistance for tuition and living expenses.
Guidance for Counsellors
HKU has a dedicated portal for nominated counsellors to help them navigate the application process with step-by-step guides and frequently asked questions. You can invite a teacher or counsellor to oversee your application, confirm your academic results, upload supporting documents, and review other details about your application.
