Space is at a premium in Hong Kong, which means accommodation is often small and expensive. The cost of living on campus in Hong Kong is reasonable, especially in comparison to regular rental prices in the city. Most campus rooms, particularly at the undergraduate level, involve sharing with another student. Up-to-date hall fees and estimates of living expenses can be obtained from the individual institutions.
Food outlets with a choice of Chinese and western food are usually available on campus, and within Hong Kong itself cuisine from around the world is easily found.
Hong Kong campuses have excellent IT facilities and internet access, and telecommunications in the city are state-of-the-art.
Moving to and from campuses is straightforward. Transportation in Hong Kong is cheap, plentiful and efficient compared with the UK, though the location of some universities may require longer travelling time into central areas than others. There is bilingual signage and Hong Kong’s size generally makes it easy to get around.
Non-local students must obtain student visas before travelling to Hong Kong and, while studying in Hong Kong, are not allowed to work either full-time or part-time. However, the Hong Kong government has announced restrictions on work are to be reviewed in order to encourage more students to come to Hong Kong.
