Li Po Chun Charitable Trust Fund Undergraduate Scholarship

On the Donor

In 1962, the late Mr Li Po Chun donated a sum of money for an indefinite period for the award of a number of scholarships.

The number and value of the scholarships, which shall be awarded to 1st year undergraduates in any discipline, are determined by the Li Po Chun Charitable Trust Fund Committee each year. 

Purpose and Scope

The scholarships shall be awarded to selected undergraduates beginning the first year of a degree course in any Faculty and may be renewed subject to satisfactory academic progress.

The scholarships shall be awarded on the basis of academic merit as shown in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination and the first semester examination results in the first year of study where appropriate; financial need will be taken into account.

Note:

• Applications are usually accepted in Semester One of each academic year.
• Applications for the 2024-25 Scholarship will open in late August 2024 and close in late September 2024. Results are expected to be available around June/July 2025.
