full-time students registered for research degree
programmes. Students awarded Studentships will
receive stipends in return for assisting in

Full-time students who have resided in Hong
Kong for at least three years may apply for
grants and loans from the Hong Kong Government.
Grants are awarded to cover tuition fees and
academic expenses while loans are for living
expenses. Recipients of loans are required to
pay interest and are expected to repay within
a specified period after graduation or leaving
the University.
A limited number of bursaries and loans are
available for students with emergency needs
arising from sudden change of financial conditions.
These are to supplement government financial
assistance and students should first apply for
the government grants and loans. Funds are available
only to full time students who are Hong Kong
residents.
There are numerous other grants and awards
available for qualified graduate students. These
include Postgraduate Student Grants for Overseas
Academic Activities, CUHK Young Scholars Dissertation
Awards, and others.
