Frequently Asked Questions

Secondary 5 / Grade 11 / Year 12 students who are Hong Kong permanent ID card holders or dependent visa holders may also apply through the Hong Kong National Committee (UWCHK) and the same selection process applies. However, they should note that they will enter as a Year 1 student into the UWC and will need to complete the 2-year IB curriculum.

If you apply through UWC Hong Kong National Committee, you are applying to the UWC movement as a whole. You will be able to indicate your top 10 preferences for UWC schools or colleges, but the UWC Hong Kong Committee will make the final decision as to where to nominate selected students. This is to ensure a good mix of students at every UWC.

Almost every student who comes to a UWC does so with scholarship assistance. More than 60% of Hong Kong students receive up to full scholarship according to their family’s financial situation.

As far as possible, we try to ensure that no student is prevented from attending a UWC for financial reasons.

Alternative tasks will be arranged for applicants who are unable to attend some or all of the selection events personally in Hong Kong if they are currently studying or living abroad.
