For all Exchange Programmes:

1. New Asia College students
2. Good academic and disciplinary standing

Remarks
- CUHK full-time students are ONLY allowed to go on exchange for a maximum of one academic year (ie. two regular terms plus one u-wide summer exchange)
- Final year students (whose expected graduation period is 2nd Term 2021/22) are NOT eligible to apply for 2nd term and 1 year exchange.
- If students’ expected graduation term is the first term of the current academic year (i.e. 2021-22, Term 1), they are INELIGIBLE to apply for the exchange programmes.
- Priority would be given to senior students who have neither been on term-time nor summer-term exchange.
- All first year students cannot request for exemption for interview. The College reserves the final right to require a student to attend an interview.
- According to the General Regulations Governing Full-time Undergraduate Studies, CUHK undergraduates who have satisfied all graduation requirements shall graduate (Regulation 12.1). Students are strongly recommended to have good planning of their academic studies to avoid extension of study period after fulfilment of all graduation requirements, particularly course unit requirement, to participate in an exchange programme.

For Japan Programmes only:

1. Japanese proficiency (“New Practical Japanese I” or above, or equivalent level acquired from other educational institutions)
2. Knowledge or interest in Japanese culture preferred.
3. Interview must be required.

For all other non-English language requirements of various host institutions, please refer to the Admission Requirements.
