Tuition Fees for Government-funded Programmes
International / Other Qualifications

The following tuition fee is charged for full-time government-funded Bachelor's Degree programmes in the 2025/26 academic year:

  • HK$175,000 (approximately US$22,436) per academic year payable in two equal instalments before the start of the first and second semesters of the academic year.

 

All new students in government-funded full-time Bachelor's Degree programmes are required to pay an initial fee of HK$15,000 to secure a place of study at our University. All offer recipients have to pay the initial fee once they accept our admission offer to undergraduate programmes regardless of whether they are scholarship recipients or not.

 

Applicants are strongly advised to settle the initial fee by Visa, Master, UnionPay card, WeChat Pay or Alipay (China wallet). If you arrange payment from overseas via telegraphic transfer, please add HK$240Note 1 to your transfer amount to cover the service fee charged by the beneficiary bank in Hong Kong. The initial fee, which is non-refundable and non-transferable, will be converted to form part of the first semester tuition fee upon admission. The remainder must then be paid on or before the payment deadline specified on the debit note.

 

Tuition fee is non-refundable, except in the case of programme cancellation. However, if a new student has submitted application for withdrawal or has been approved for deferment of study by the relevant department before the start of the first semester, then the tuition fee paid for the semester, after deducting the initial fee, will be refunded to the student.

 

Applicants from the least-developed countries identified by the United Nations (https://unctad.org/topic/least-developed-countries/recognition) can apply for waiver of application fees. For details, please contact us at ar.intl@polyu.edu.hk.

 

Note 1: Handling fee is neither refundable nor transferable. In case additional handling fee does not suffice for the actual bank charge, student shall be responsible for the deficit.
