Hong Kong Unison has administered the Scholarships Schemes for Ethnic Minority Students since 2008. The Tertiary Scholarship Scheme for Ethnic Minority Students has been giving financial assistance to students from underprivileged families. The scholarship is awarded based on criteria such as excellence in academic performance, financial needs, social stewardship, leadership skills as well as commitment to contributing to society. With the generous support of various donors, we are able to financially support ethnic minority students in their pursuit of post-secondary education.
