Dear student,
As we continue to respond to the current Covid-19 pandemic, we regret to inform you that all our face-to-face programmes for summer 2020 will be suspended. This is a very tough decision to make as we were looking forward to meeting you in person at HKU! But as your health and safety remains our highest priority, we have decided to cancel all on-campus programmes and offer some of these courses online.
Please refer to the following list for the most updated online programmes available for summer 2020:

To show our appreciation and to support your studies during this difficult time, we are offering a Special 20% Discount on most programme fees. The price will be automatically updated in the system when you accept and pay for your programmes with early bird and/or partner discount applied, where applicable.
All online programmes will be conducted primarily via Zoom as the virtual classroom platform. Please ensure that Zoom is accessible in your area before deciding to join our online summer programmes. Details of the User Guide and Policy will be available in due course, after you have been accepted to the programme.
If you would like to join any of the above online programmes but have not yet started the application process, please apply here.
If you submitted your application before March 31, 2020 and your chosen programme has been converted online, you will receive an offer beginning May 4, 2020. You will have the option to accept or decline our offer.
If you submitted your application before March 31, 2020 but would like to change your selection to any of the above online programmes, please feel free to email us at ugsummer@hku.hk (for undergraduate programmes) or hssummer@hku.hk (for secondary school programmes) on or before May 7, 2020. Don’t forget to quote your application number.
We’d like to remind you that there is a quota for each class, so please apply as early as you can. Please also be reminded that the application fee is non-refundable and non-transferable.
