F. Points to Note
1. You are advised to submit your form by the deadline to ensure early disbursement of awards. Applications received after the deadline will only be accepted with good justification.
2. Any supporting documents that are not available at the time of application should be stated clearly in the application form, and the said documents should be submitted to SFO once available. You have to take the initiative to provide them once available. Otherwise, this could be treated as omission which may lead to rejection of your application.
3. For students reading a self-financing 2nd degree of a double degree programme offered by HKU, they can apply for the Financial Assistance Scheme for Post-secondary Students (FASP) or Non-means-tested Loan Scheme for Post-secondary Students (NLSPS). Online Application will be open from 8 May 2023 at https://ess.wfsfaa.gov.hk
