Founded in 1956, United College is one of the three constituent Colleges of The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Guided by the College motto, “Ming De Xin Min” (meaning “Make One’s Virtues Shine and Renew the People”), the College is committed to fostering non-formal education, allowing our students to have an all-rounded development on top of their academic studies. 

Campus Facilities

United College is situated on a beautiful campus with well-equipped facilities, including a library, gymnasium, tennis courts, physical fitness room, Choi Koon Sum Learning Plus (L+), Tien Chi Digital Creative Space and Creative Media Studio, etc. In September 2025, the fifth student hostel will be inaugurated. Together with the existing four student hostels, a total of 1,538 places will be available, allowing more students to experience the enriching hostel life. The College also has two non-residential halls, providing comfortable space for rest and activities for our non-resident students.

Scholarships and Financial Aid

United College provides a diverse array of resources to support students’ whole-person development. In 2024-2025, the total amount of scholarships, awards, and financial aid reached near HK$12 million, with 2,000 awards were granted to our students. Among these, admission scholarships are offered to new students who have achieved excellent results in public examinations or demonstrate outstanding performance in sports, cultural arts, and community service. Furthermore, the College offers admission scholarships for the first-year students from Belt and Road countries, encouraging more outstanding students to pursue their studies in Hong Kong. 

Non-local Exchange Opportunities

Our renowned College’s Globe-oriented Active Learning (GOAL) Programme offers extensive opportunities for students to engage in overseas exchange programmes and non-local service-learning activities. These experiences are further supported by the College’s scholarships and financial aid initiatives, ensuring students can broaden their horizons and gain valuable global perspectives.
