Applying from Overseas




There are three methods of entry available for students living outside Hong Kong:

1. Scholarship entry through the National Committee:

Almost every country has its own National Committee that selects students for UWCs around the world, including Li Po Chun UWC. To contact your local National Committee and make an application, obtain the contact details from http://www.uwc.org/how_to_apply/find_your_national_committee/default.aspx.

2. International Quota (IQ) Scheme

Entry under the IQ Scheme is available if you are not a citizen of the country in which you are presently residing. If selected you would normally pay full fees, although financial support is available under special circumstances.

For details of entry under the IQ Scheme, please send an e-mail to office@lpcuwc.edu.hk.

This application is for ONLY for applicants who are not citizens of the country in which they are presently residing. To apply, three parts of an application are needed:

  • On-line Application Form – to be completed by applicant, click HERE.
  • Form P – to be completed by parents, download HERE.
  • Form S – to be completed by your current school’s Principal, download HERE.

 

It is recommended that you submit your application by Monday 7 December 2009 as late applications can be considered only if unexpected late places become available.

3. Fee-paying entry directly to the College:

The full fee for 2010/2011 will be HK$200,000* (provisional), but fees for 2011/2012 are expected to be about HK$206,000* (provisional). This figure includes all tuition and residential (boarding and food) costs, books, stationery and IB examination entry fees. However air fares, pocket money and private medical care are not included. Entry by this route is subject to the approval of the relevant National Committee. Only a few fee-paying places are usually available annually depending on availability of places, and normal selection criteria apply.
