Tuition Waiver Scheme for Local Research Postgraduate (RPg) Students

The University Grants Committee (UGC) has announced a ‘Tuition Waiver Scheme’ (‘The Scheme’) for all local students enrolled in full-time UGC-funded Research Postgraduate (RPg) programmes in local institutions, to cover their composition fees with effect from the academic year 2018-19 (i.e. from July 1, 2018).   

This Tuition Waiver Scheme provides non-means-tested funding to all current and new local students from all disciplines of study enrolled in full-time UGC-funded RPg programmes. Eligible students do not need to apply for the Scheme.
