• The value of each award shall be HK$2,500 per annum.

• If in any year no student is found to be of sufficient merit, the award will be withheld.
• It will be assumed that the scholarships shall be offered annually until further notice in writing by the donor is received before 1 July of each year.

Remark :
With an objective to nurture our students and to promote caring culture, the Community Relations Committee of the University Council has recommended that each award recipient is expected to make an annual donation of at least HK$200 to City University of Hong Kong for student support via CityU Alumni Club when they are in employment after graduation. This term has been incorporated into all scholarship/prize/award/bursary schemes, whether they are donated by external donors or contributed by University funding, with effect from February 2008.
