LU Non-local Entrance Scholarship
"I am truly honored and deeply grateful for the opportunity to receive the prestigious full scholarship at Lingnan University.
On behalf of my parents and myself, I would like to sincerely thank Lingnan University for this priceless and generous support. This scholarship has not only eased the financial burden of my education but has also made it possible for me to pursue my dream of studying Health and Social Sciences. Without this opportunity, I would have been uncertain of where life might have taken me.
The moment I received the offer, I felt proud to stand on my own without relying on my parents. Since Bhutan, my home country is in great need of professionals in my field, I also feel proud to represent my country and to learn in such an inspiring environment at Lingnan University, where community and society are truly valued.
Since joining, I have been able to settle in comfortably, meet wonderful friends from around the world, and be inspired by my professors and host family. This experience has already helped me grow and adapt quickly. Therefore, this scholarship has not only made my dream come true but has also motivated me to work harder, excel in my studies, and strive to become the best version.
I am deeply thankful to Lingnan University, and I promise to work hard and make the most of this opportunity, ensuring that you will never regret placing your trust in me."
Mr CHEN Chak Hoi (HSSM, 2025 Intake)
Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (HKDSE) Via JUPAS
"The entrance scholarship offered by the Sociology and Social Policy Department has helped me a lot as a freshman. I was really worried about the financial burden at first. But it turns out , I realized this is my turning point where I can explore lots of things : participating in or even holding activities in the community , which I can have enough assets to serve my hometown ; joining amazing university activities or projects by different societies or faculty.
Receiving a scholarship doesn't mean to achieve the greatest, but to have opportunities to build up yourself so as to achieve the greatest. So, don't think "scholarship" is an untouchable thing, perhaps you can be the next person and do your best, 加油!"
Ms FAN Yatong Amy (HSSM, 2023 Intake)
International Qualification Holders: Advanced Placement (AP) Exam
"I am profoundly honoured to have received the HKSAR Government Scholarship for Outstanding Performance. This award not only recognises my contributions, but also the collective efforts of every community I have been honoured to serve.
At Lingnan University, I would like to express my deep gratitude to my professors and mentors for their expert guidance and unwavering belief in my potential. Their insights have been instrumental in shaping my academic path. I am also grateful for the diverse range of activities and programmes organised by the university through academic seminars, field visits, and local community services. Both the theoretical frameworks and empirical research methods provide the essential tools to critically engage with and address systemic barriers faced by marginalised communities. This foundation has not only greatly enhanced my academic horizons but has also broadened my practical understanding through direct engagement with real-world contexts, ultimately helping me secure support from the Hong Kong Government Scholarships Fund.
Moving forward, I remain committed to integrating service into my academic and professional journey by maximising this scholarship and creating more sustainable, impactful changes."
