HSUHK students receive AIA scholarship awards

AIA pledged US$100 million in October 2020 to help 100 undergraduates every year over the next several decades attend Hong Kong universities. AIA Scholarships is run by the AIA Foundation in collaboration with 10 partner universities in Hong Kong.

In the 2022-23 academic year, five HSUHK students received AIA Scholarships and each scholar will receive HK$50,000 every year throughout their undergraduate studies. The AIA Scholarships 2022-23 Awards Ceremony was held on 11 September 2023.

The students were selected based on their track records 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, dialogues with AIA senior leaders, and opportunities to serve the community to further expand their horizons.

The new AIA Scholarships admission cycle will start in November 2023. Please visit the Student Affairs Office (SAO) website for further details.
