Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. ''Do not place your signature in any article.   - Jameson L. Tai   talk ♦  contribs '' 06:22, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Hong Kong U Study Abroad section
This is the original Study Abroad section you were working on. Unfortunately, this section is disproportionally longer than any other section in the article. Since HKU's Study Abroad program is not the focus of this article, I will be scaling back, summarizing, and removing some of the extraneous parts in order to conform to existing Wikipedia policies and guidelines.

Study Abroad Program


In 2007, the Times Higher Education Supplement ranked the University of Hong Kong as the 18th best university in the world. Student welfare is served by several units, including the Centre of Development and Resources for Students (CEDARS), which provides guidance for most areas of student life; and University Health Service, which provides health care, referrals and preventive services. This student run organization offers more than 100 clubs and associations catering to the diverse interest of the student population.

Study abroad students will be assigned to a local student who they can correspond with prior to departure for Hong Kong. A buddy would meet you upon arrival at the airport, assist you with settling into student residence and offer advice and support to you during your stay.

Students can come study abroad at HKU in two ways; if you have an exchange agreement between your university and HKU where you apply as an Exchange student you will usually continue to pay home tuition with no additonal tuition fees for HKU OR if not, you many apply as a Visiting Student and have to pay overseas tuition fees to HKU.
