Non-local Applicants

Non-local students are defined as persons entering Hong Kong for purpose of education with a student visa or entry permit issued by the Immigration Department of the HKSAR Government.

Generally speaking, it is very difficult for non-local students applying for short courses (including both credit-bearing and non credit-bearing courses) to be approved for student visas. Neither are they entitled to any financial assistance.

For details, please contact the Immigration Department of the HKSAR Government (Tel: 2824 6111 Website: http://www.info.gov.hk/immd/).
