undergraduate degree in Vietnam; 
(b) Good academic performance in undergraduate study; 
(c) Interview performance; and 
(d) Career track record as applicable.

strong credentials, they may be awarded with an additional amount (on top of the component to 
cover the entire programme tuition fees) of up to HK$240,000, to be disbursed on a quarterly
