    Student Financial Assistance and Medical Scheme  
Student Financial Aid Scheme
We have established the Student Financial Aid Scheme (the Scheme) under a revolving fund since 1995 to provide our full-time students with loans to alleviate their financial difficulties in their course of studies. Eligible students can apply for a maximum of two loans throughout a three-year course and the maximum amount of each loan is half of a term's tuition fee.

In order to motivate our students to pursue academic excellence, a number of scholarships are awarded to them under the Scheme.

 
Grant from Diocesan Lenten Collection Allocation Committee
In the spirit of Lent, grants have been approved by the Diocesan Lenten Collection Allocation Committee to assist full-time and part-time students experiencing financial difficulties. The approval is subject to a means test and assistance is given to students with genuine financial needs. Grants are awarded to successful applicants by means of partial payment of the tuition fees.
 
Non-means Tested Loan Scheme
Students can apply for Government Loans under the Non-means Tested Loan Scheme (NLS). The NLS provides financial assistance in the form of loans to eligible students to meet tuition fees operated on a full-cost-recovery basis.
 
Financial Assistance Scheme for Post-secondary Students
The Financial Assistance Scheme for Post-secondary Students (FASP), under the Student Financial Assistance Agency of the HKSAR Government, provides means-tested financial assistance to needy full-time students pursuing accredited, self-financing post-secondary education programmes, leading to a qualification at or above the levels of higher diploma, associate degree and/or professional diploma. Under the FASP, financial assistance is in the form of a grant or a loan.  
 
Overseas Studies Sponsorship
Sponsorship in the form of tuition fee remission will be provided to our full-time students who have successfully been admitted to those overseas universities/institutes having formal links with the Service.  
 
Learning Passport Scheme
To encourage adult learners to strive for continuing learning opportunities, we established the Learning Passport Scheme in 1997. Holders of the Learning Passport can document their record of studies and claim learning coupons which can be used as cash upon presentation for future course registration.
 
Student Medical Scheme
Under the Student Medical Scheme, all full-time students can enjoy out-patient and dental care services offered by the Caritas Medical Service at a discounted rate.
