Admission review process

• Applicants will be considered for admission on their high school transcript (including mid-year Grade 12) and predicted HKDSE results or, if already completed, on final HKDSE results and the graduation statement.

  The minimum requirements are the four core subjects (Chinese Language, English, Mathematics and Liberal Studies), as well as two or three elective subjects from category A (academic subject) or category C (foreign languages). Subjects from category B (applied learning subjects) cannot be used for admission.
