The academic calendar at CUHK is divided into two semesters, as in many other universities in Hong Kong. For convenience, tuition fees are calculated per year. One year of studying at CUHK will cost local citizens a minimum of 5,428 USD. For foreigners, the tuition fee is different — from 18,696 USD per year. The university provides tuition assistance to some students through financial aid programs. They are available to both locals and foreigners. Check the university website for up-to-date information on prices and available scholarships.
In addition to the cost of education, it is necessary to pay attention to additional costs: accommodation, transportation, study materials, meals and personal expenses.

Before applying, you need to pass the IELTS or TOEFL exam.
When considering candidates for master's programs, the admission committee of the university pays attention to the student's academic performance during the undergraduate program. It is impossible to enter CUHK for a master's program without confirming knowledge of the English language. You can do this by passing IELTS or TOEFL.
The campus of the educational institution is suburban. The advantages of such a location include the ability to quickly get to the city, access to various types of recreation (in nature and in the city) and a close-knit student community. Students have access to the extensive scientific library of the university. The collection of scientific papers helps them in conducting research. CUHK regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs. For locals, this is a unique opportunity to get in touch with the cultures of other countries, meet representatives of different nationalities and make friends around the world.

After graduation, you can stay in Hong Kong for 1 year. This time is enough to find a job and change your student visa to a work one. Graduates of CUHK find jobs without difficulty. One of the reasons is the good reputation of the university among employers, according to the results of the QS ranking. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
