Entrance Requirements of University Grants Committee-funded Institutions on Mathematics

Students applying for the 4-year undergraduate programmes offered by the UGC-funded institutions have to attain Level 2 for Mathematics in HKDSE (Please visit the website http://334.edb.hkedcity.net/new/en/multiplepathway.php for general entrance requirements of individual institutions). Institutions may set additional faculty/programme requirements in consideration of the specific nature and needs of the programmes, as well as students’ abilities required to benefit from their studies. The additional requirements or selection criteria on the Compulsory Part (CP) and the Extended Part (EP), which is comprised of Module 1 (M1) and Module 2 (M2), of Mathematics are as follows*:

Admission score calculation (2022 Entry)

 Individual schemes / programmes select either 5 or 6 HKDSE subjects for calculation of admission scores starting from the 2017-18 admissions exercise. Admission score calculation mechanisms adopted by schemes / programmes looking for 5 subjects are either “Any Best 5 Subjects” or "Chinese & English Languages + Any Best 3 Subjects" while those looking for 6 subjects are either "Any Best 6 Subjects" or "4 Core + Best 2 Elective Subjects”. After all, individual schemes / programmes adopt only one of the mechanisms mentioned for calculating the admission score for initial prioritization of applicants.

 Extended Modules of Mathematics (M1 / M2) will be treated as a single subject in calculating the admission scores.
