Gratitude Scholarship, The

On the Donor

In September 2019, The Tsangs pledged a sum donation in support of a scholarship for student enrichment. They hope that the Scholarship can support deserving and needy students to gain exposure to learning opportunities outside Hong Kong. The Tsang family’s close connection to the University is generational, as Mr Tsang is an Arts alumnus, his wife is a Social Sciences alumna, and their two sons are both law alumni. The Scholarship represents a way to show their gratitude to their alma mater, an encouragement for the next generation of students to thrive in their own way and if and when become affordable in the future they can be inspired to be grateful and contribute to the alma mater and society too likewise. 

Purpose and Scope

One scholarship shall be awarded every year to a local undergraduate student, who has sat the HKDSE examination, to take part in overseas learning activities (of a duration not less than two weeks, including but not limited to academic exchange, visiting studies) held by the University recognised universities located in Europe or North America. 
 
The Scholarship shall be awarded primarily on the basis of academic merit and financial need. A track record of community service or participation in student activities may also be taken into consideration.
