Students can join in two ways. Students can apply directly via the Individual Application. Alternatively, students can request a School Nomination.
If students are applying via the individual application, students submit their applications online without any involvement from the school.
If students want to request a school nomination, students need to submit their applications online, and then print a copy of their acknowledgement email, a copy of their latest school report and a copy of any other documentation submitted during the online application, and give these to Ms. Hitchings in the Y12-13 Office before the end of school on Monday 22nd September 2025. After reviewing these and collecting feedback from your teachers, Ms. Hitchings will then submit the school nomination directly to HKUST if appropriate.
Late applications will not be accepted as there will not be enough time to collect feedback from your teachers and complete the school nomination procedures. Students who have missed the KGV deadline may still be able to apply via the individual application if that deadline has not yet passed. Please see their website for details.
