All applicants are required to pay a deposit upon acceptance of the offer of admission by the stipulated deadline.
The first instalment of composition fee is payable upon registration. Most students will receive a soft copy of the student invoice around mid-September 2023 in respect of the balance of the first instalment by way of an e-mail attachment to their “@connect.hku.hk” e-mail account from the Student Information System (SIS). Students who have provided their Hong Kong mobile phone numbers in the SIS will receive a SMS message in parallel. A soft copy of the student invoice is also available for download through the SIS system. Students are required to pay the invoice sum on or before the invoice due date.
You must take note of the following important points:
(a)
|
You should follow the instructions as given in the student invoice for making payment and must input the correct “Bill Type” and “Bill Account No.” as specified in the student invoice for payment. It is important to retain the transaction advice slip printed out by the bank machines (or to keep a hardcopy of the acknowledgement of bank payment reference number if using internet banking) as your proof of fees payment.
|
| (b) |
A student is liable to pay the annual composition fee even though if he/she withdraws from studies later in the academic year.
|
| (c) |
University fees, once paid, cannot be refunded.
|
| (d) |
If you are unable to pay fees by the due date, you have to contact the Centre of Development and Resources for Students (CEDARS) well before the due date to apply for permission to defer your payment. For details, please visit cedars.hku.hk/finance/defer.html.
|
| (e) |
A student who has failed to pay his/her fees within 30 days after the due date shall be de-registered and prohibited from using University facilities and services. For subsequent reinstatement of student status, the student will have to pay a surcharge of 10% of the outstanding fees, or $500, whichever is the lesser. In addition, the student may also be required to compensate the University for any loss of interest for any late payment or non-payment of fees. |
