7 October 2024

In the 2023-24 academic year, four HSUHK students received AIA Scholarships, which provide them with HK$50,000 every year throughout their undergraduate studies (subject to the renewal requirements for academic performance and participation in community service). An awards presentation ceremony was held on 7 October 2024.

The awardees were Au Wing-yan (BBA in Professional Accountancy, Year 1), Ayman Kashan (BBA in Global Business Management, Year 1), Li Ho-yan (BBA in Human Resource Management, Year 1) and Hung Yu-kwan (BA in Chinese, Year 1). One of the HSUHK graduates, Jacky Wong, from the first cohort of the AIA Scholarships also attended the ceremony to express his sincere gratitude for the financial support he received during his study at HSUHK.

The awardees were selected based on their track record of academic excellence and community service, as well as their need for financial support to pursue higher education. In addition to granting AIA Scholarships, the AIA Foundation will engage with the scholars throughout their academic journeys, providing them with career planning workshops and opportunities to serve the community to further expand their horizons. 

AIA pledged US$100 million in October 2020 to help 100 undergraduates every year over the next several decades attend Hong Kong universities. The new AIA Scholarships admission cycle will start in November 2024. Please visit the Student Affairs Office (SAO) website for further details.
