Student Exchange
FAQs
| (a) | Do I need to pay the tuition fee to the host institution?
No, you pay tuition to HKBU. You will receive the sponsorship from HKBU once you are accepted for admission by the host institution. |
| (b) | What is the minimum GPA for successful application?
You should possess a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA at the time of application and at the conclusion of the semester prior to the beginning of an exchange. In addition to the GPA requirement, your application must be supported by your major department. |
| (c) | Do I need to be fluent in a third language if I choose
to exchange to countries like France and Sweden? No. The host institutions offer a wide variety of courses taught in English. However, knowing the language of the host country is always advantageous. |
| (d) | Can I transfer the credits obtained at the host
institution? Do I need to delay my graduation? Although the host institution will make every effort in accommodating your wish as much as possible, there is no guarantee that you will be able to enrol in the courses that you plan to take and the credits you obtain at the host institution will be recognised towards your studies at HKBU. Hence, your graduation might be delayed. Consult your department or the Academic Registry about academic requirements and the full implications of your participation in this programme. |
