Visiting Programme

The Visiting Programme at HKU welcomes students enrolled at other universities who wish to take courses here, including those whose home institutions do not have a formal exchange agreement with HKU. Applicants should demonstrate strong academic standing, reflecting their ability to succeed in a rigorous academic environment. With a diverse selection of courses across various faculties, the programme provides opportunities for students to tailor their academic experience to align with their interests and objectives.

HKU offers support services for visiting students throughout the application process and to assist with practical matters such as navigating the city. Additionally, a range of extracurricular activities and events are available to help students explore Hong Kong and connect with fellow students.

For students interested in participating in the Visiting Programme, more information about the courses, application procedures, and eligibility criteria can be found on this website. The University welcomes visiting students and aims to facilitate their study abroad experience.

Notes:

• Students whose home institutions do not have a formal exchange agreement with HKU may apply as visiting students.

• If students are not pursuing a full degree, they may consider applying as visiting students to attend courses for one semester or one year, or to undertake postgraduate research or other prescribed studies as approved by the relevant department.
