Being a student athlete is never easy, as it takes immense effort to juggle academic and sporting commitments. We are committed to supporting student athletes who wish to develop their full sporting potential without sacrificing their academic studies.
Through the Student Athletes Admissions Scheme (SAAS) and its associated Sports Scholarship, elite student athletes can pursue their sporting dreams while still receiving a high-quality education.
- HKUST recognizes students who display talent in sports and contribute to sports development
- Up to 'Full tuition plus living allowance of HKD60,000' per academic year per award (renewable)
- Special consideration for admissions
