0:24
of Hong Kong the best university in Hong
0:27
Kong and it's like I believe it's 35th
0:30
in the global university rankings This
0:33
is full funding Uh no specific
0:35
nationalities no specific subjects
0:38
everyone is like everyone is eligible
0:41
basically Um by the way again all
0:43

0:46
subjects that the university offers So
0:48
like if you're if you want to study a
0:51
specific subject that in this that in is
0:53
not in this university you cannot apply
0:55

1:06
So first let's see a little bit more
1:08
about the university As I said this
1:10
university is the top university in Hong
1:12
Kong Uh it's like 35 uh in 35th place uh
1:18
in world about 36,000 students uh also
1:22
this is a great university and I think
1:24
like almost half of this university
1:26
student population is international so
1:29
like there are a lot of international
1:30
but of course you know uh being Hong
1:32
Kong uh the definition of international
1:36
is a little can be a little odd uh with
1:39
this university because you know like
1:41
the country is very tiny so uh their
1:44
definition of international can be quite
1:46
uh difficult quite different than what
1:48
we understand as international It has
1:51
seven
1:51
scholarships We have all the information
1:53
here like admission I can click on any
1:56
one of these We have a couple of as you
1:58
can see uh admission results Uh two
2:02
people from Russia one person from
2:04
Kazakhstan all with SATs 1510 and like
2:08
GPA uh blah blah blah You can see these
2:11
and accepted We have a application
2:13
tutorial if you want to apply this
2:15
university And by the way you just apply
2:18
to the university and that's it Like uh
2:20
this is not just a tutorial for applying
2:22
to the university but also a tutorial
2:24
for applying to the scholarship When you
2:26
apply to the university they'll
2:28
automatically consider you uh for the
2:30
scholarship as well Where the deadlines
2:33
here uh we have tuition fees situation
2:35
fee is about like
2:39
$180,000 dollars but Hong Kong dollars
2:41
which means it's about uh
2:45
2325,000 US So it is expensive but not
2:49
extremely incredibly expensive So yeah
2:52
we have as you can see these are the
2:54
scholarships that we have We have a like
2:56
one full tution one full funding one
2:59
full tuition one more there are a lot of
3:01
full tuition and full funding
3:03
scholarships in this university
3:05
uh one Hong Kong PhD fellowship scheme
3:08
These are external
3:10
scholarships and let's see what the
3:12
university looks like where it is
3:15
[Music]
3:17
um
3:19
here All
3:21
right If you want to study in in Hong
3:24
Kong this is the best option you could
3:27
get So yeah this is where the university
3:29
is again tiny country Hong Kong just a
3:33
like city city state basically and this
3:35
is what the university looks
3:39
like So yeah this is the
3:43
university and the scholarship again it
3:45
covers 100% of your tuition fees which
3:47
is about
3:49
$25,000 Um accommodation they give you
3:52
like dormatory fees Um and a living
3:55
stipent we we don't really know how much
3:58
but I guess like it would be something
4:00
that would cover your living expenses at
4:03
least close to that and an enrichment
4:06
scholarship And you might be asking how
4:08
much will I be spending there uh it's
4:10
Hong Kong it's quite expensive So we
4:13
have information about tuition fees and
4:15
living expenses here in this page So
4:18
basically the cost of living they kind
4:21
of
4:22
estimate is here like if you're living
4:25
in the residential halls on colleges or
4:27
of campus housing or or living expenses
4:31
So like all of this come to at most like
4:35
100,000 Hong Kong dollars So which is
4:41
about about what $12,000 So it'd be at
4:45
most $1,000 US every month Uh which is
4:50
expensive but not not too expensive
4:53
compared to compared to places like
4:55
United States or uh Europe And in turn
4:58
you'll be studying at a very very good
5:02
university So um we have the like
5:05
eligibility criteria here just incoming
5:07
international students with outstanding
5:09
grades Application procedure again no
5:13

5:15

5:17
We're done And we had a deadline here We
5:22
have a video about this Again if you

all of them You can click here to go to
5:42
the university page We're looking for
5:43
fully funded bachelors That's literally
5:46
what we are looking at right now This is
5:48
a fully funded scholarship for bachelors
5:50
in Hong Kong It covers tuition fees It
5:53
covers uh living stipens It covers
5:55
accommodation Accommodation is not
5:57
really all that often covered even by
5:59
very generous full funding
6:02
scholarships Not to mention in Hong Kong
6:05
which is a very famously expensive place
6:07
in terms of rent
6:10
Um so your rent might be about
6:15
like it yeah your rent would be about
6:19
like $500 $600 by their estimation So it
6:23
can be really expensive and this covers
6:26
everything basically So you there are
6:28
also other scholarships uh as well in
6:31
this university University of Hong Kong
6:33
Uh you can see them here They have a
6:35
they have an odd way of uh showing
6:39
they're showcasing their scholarships So
6:41
basically go to this page scholarship
6:43
page and then you choose whether you're
6:45
local or not Is there an application fee
6:48
to it um well you do not apply to the
6:52
univers to the scholarship You apply to
6:55
the university and I think there's a
6:59
there's an application fee for this
7:01
university I'm not sure how uh you can
7:03
see that by checking out our application
7:07
tutorial video here Um that's how much
7:11
it costs to apply to this university But
7:14
after you apply to the university uh
7:16
that's it You don't also separately
7:19
apply to the scholarship Uh let's choose
7:22
international qualifications here And
7:24
then let's choose any one of these right
7:26
faculty of engineering let's say So it's
7:28
here As you can see we have like 13
7:31
scholarships that are for um
7:35
international students with
7:36
international uh qualifications in a
7:39
faculty of engineering Uh these are all
7:41
that and this is the one we're talking
7:43
about HKU foundation scholarship for
7:46
president scholars It doesn't give you
7:50
specific information about how much it
7:52
gives you up to full tuition fees plus
7:54
accommodation and living allowances and
7:56
an enrichment scholarship So yeah that's
7:58
basically it Um okay we're going to come
8:02
back to that question
8:04
Sai but um okay so this is this is it
8:08
for the scholarship Aean uh what would
8:10
you like to say about this specific
8:12
scholarship it is a very uh generous
8:15
scholarship Um in Hong Kong we don't
8:18
usually have like we don't usually talk
8:19
about studying in Hong Kong So if you
8:22
have any um anything to say about
8:24
studying in Hong Kong as well um like
8:26
what would you say
8:30
um yeah the university obviously
8:34
Uh yeah Yeah of course Uh so Hong Kong
8:37
is uh one of those countries that are a
8:40
little under that just go under the
8:42
radar for many international students uh
8:46
even those who want to study in Asia
8:49
most of them just choose Japan or South
8:52
Korea um and to a lesser extent China
8:56
but they don't really aim to go for Hong
9:00
Kong um when it's a really great country
9:05
uh when it comes to education in general
9:09
and I think this university the
9:11
University of Hong Kong being
9:13
uh quite high in ranking is a testament
9:17
to
9:18
that Um yeah so in general this uh
9:23
scholarship is quite generous and very
9:27
straightforward There is no additional
9:30
application needed You just need to be
9:33
accepted uh by the university in order
9:36
to get this scholarship It's fully
9:39
funded I'm not sure what an enrichment
9:42
scholarship is I think there's something
9:45
that is lost in translation there Uh but
9:49
for the most part uh it covers full
9:51
tuition It covers
9:55
uh your living expenses accommodation So
9:59
it's just the full package Um of course
10:03
it's only for uh bachelor students but
10:06
there are other scholarships that are
10:08
for graduate students Um if anyone wants
10:12
to study uh in Hong Kong So overall I
10:17
don't think there is much to this
10:20
scholarship other than it being a great
10:23
opportunity So there is no catch
10:26
Uh it's it's just a good scholarship in
10:29
general The deadline for to apply to the
10:32
university is still far away It's in
10:34
August So for anyone who
10:38
uh wants to study in Asia and Hong Kong
10:41
in particular this is a good university
10:44
to apply to Um and the fact that most of
10:48
these universities just go under the
10:50
radar gives you higher chances of
10:53
getting admitted higher chances of
10:54
getting scholarships So I don't know
10:57
maybe if you're hearing about about it
10:59
here you you probably could be admitted
11:03
and get the scholarship So I would say
11:04
go for
Study Grants & Scholarships
Jobs & Education
Education
