When going on exchange for a term or a year, you will pay the regular CUHK tuition fee. Tuition fees at the host university will be waived for CUHK students who participate in an approved exchange programme.

Fees required for a typical exchange programme would include the following:

• CUHK tuition
• Accommodation (CUHK or host university / country)
• Health Insurance
• Meal Plan
• Airfare

Other costs which you will incur during your exchange period include:

• Books and stationery
• Personal expenses
• Cultural activities
• Transportation (local and inter-state)
• Warm clothing for some exchange destinations

When do I pay?

Before you depart for the exchange programme, you will need to pay the CUHK tuition fee. Failure to do so will disqualify you from the exchange programme. Other fees are payable either before or during the exchange depending on the programme and the nature of the fee.

Are scholarships or financial aids available?

There are a number of financial aid schemes or scholarships available at CUHK for students who would like to go on exchange to apply.

* Updated information will be provided in March/ April 2007. Office of Academic Links will email the nominees for the 2007-08 outgoing student exchange programmes when the information is available.
