International Students

<p>@DYHAHA</p>

<p>I don’t know the exact number but there are quite a lot of Koreans at HKUST. Amongst all international admissions, they take up the largest portion. </p>

<p>Personally, I don’t think HK universities care much about extra-curricular activities. The grades are much more important and the ultimate determining factor. But , you should buff up your application with a maximum of 3 activities that showcase the different skills you possess.</p>

<p>@unlucky06: Oh no…I am getting nervous now. Can you show the email? Thanks!!</p>

4263

<p>Both my preferences have been listed as unsuccessful. Goodluck others . Guess Hku is not my cup of tea :D</p>

4264

<p>@Unlucky06 do you mind sharing your score?:)</p>

4265

<p>do hku/hkust accept ACT scores ( they havent mentioned it on their site ) just wondering :S</p>

4266

<p>UnLucky06, Maybe an email to <a href=“mailto:intl@hku.hk”>intl@hku.hk</a>? They deal with international admission inquiries…</p>

4267

<p>Is it possible to receive late offer Eventhough the online status is unsuccessful now ?</p>

4268

<p>@scrumptious</p>

<p>What examination pattern did you take? Are you still waiting for your examination results? If yes, then it is possible to receive an offer if your results are better than your predicted results. </p>

<p>If your application status changed because of the actual examination results, then it won’t be possible to get an offer.</p>

4269

<p>Okay thanks for your info :wink: I will pray for the best then</p>

4270

<p>I would like to ask if a student receives an offer from HKU, will HKU first update the application status online or will they email the student first? Thanks in advance:)</p>

4271

<p>through email :)) status updates r slower than email for the offers but faster for the rejection
tats from what i saw from ppl i know but yeah mayb there r different cases</p>

<p>Hey guys.

Gpa: 3.87
SAT: 2050
SAT 2: biology m: 730
Chinese with listening 760
History: 720
Toefl ibt: 112/120</p>

<p>IB diploma: 36/45</p>

4275

<p>ughhh sorry i mean i know i have no chance for IBGM and Global Business, so I want normal BBA.</p>

<p>@whysosarcastic</p>

<p>That’s a decent IB score. But then again, I joined in September 2010 and admission at HKU/HKUST has been getting more competitive every year. It’s best to ask someone who has gotten in to HKU/HKUST this year and ask them what they got for IB. </p>

<p>Perhaps you could find someone to help you at this facebook group: <a href=“https://www.facebook.com/groups/379487995249/[/url]”>https://www.facebook.com/groups/379487995249/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>@whysosarcastic</p>

<p>Oh and also note that HK universities don’t really care about TOK/EE. So try getting a high predicted grade without relying on those bonus points.</p>
