We look for students who have excellent academic credentials, an excellent command of English, a strong analytical mind with a broad vision as well as outstanding communication and presentation skills. A positive record of extra-curricular activities, demonstration of global leadership and commitment to serving the community are definite pluses.
Admissions
- What is your target intake?
The number of student intake is around 30 to 35 in a year. This number includes local (JUPAS / non-JUPAS) students and non-local (international and Mainland) students.
Local students who take the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (HKDSE) should apply through the Joint University Programmes Admissions System (JUPAS).
Local students of international qualifications other than HKDSE and non-local students of qualifications other than the Mainland NJCEE (Gaokao) should apply through the International/Non-JUPAS Admissions Scheme.
Mainland NJCEE (Gaokao) students should apply through the Mainland Admissions Scheme. - What is the distribution for local (JUPAS / non-JUPAS) and non-local (international) students?
We have maintained a good balance of students in different categories over the years. It should be noted that the composition of students may vary according to the performance of students in the year. - Are there any past admission statistics available for my reference?
Past admission statistics can be found here - What are the admission scores requirements?
JUPAS scores requirement can be found here
Admission standards and language requirements for other international qualifications can be found here
It should be noted that admission is competitive in nature which will be dependent on the number and quality of candidates in the cohort, and therefore satisfying the minimum requirements or the expected admissions standards does not necessarily guarantee admission to the programme. - Are there any interviews?
We conduct interview on a selective basis. Shortlisted students based on their demonstrated competencies would be invited to join our programme interview and reception. It is worthy to note that prioritization of BBA(IBGM) as your first choice reflects your commitment and passion for the programme. - When will the interviews be held?
JUPAS
Interviews will usually be held in May/June and July.
Other International Qualifications
Interviews will be conducted on a rolling basis. You are highly encouraged to submit your application to us as early as possible.

Applications submitted after the main round will be considered on a rolling basis subject to programme availability. - What will be the interview format?
For JUPAS candidates, group interviews at our university will be arranged. Normally there are two rounds of interviews (one is School-based and the other one is programme-specific). All selected candidates will have to go through the two rounds of interviews which will usually be arranged on the same day.
For candidates of other international qualifications, face-to-face interviews will be arranged whenever possible, or else, online interviews will be conducted. - Where could I obtain further information on admission?

Fees & Expenditure
- What are some others fees I should be aware of?
Other than the university composition fee, students will have to at bare their expenditure for the one-semester exchange and part of that for the field trip. The exchange destination is subjected to personal choice while that of the field trip is decided during the summer by the IBGM Student committee. The exact expenditure varies from country to country. - Are there any financial support for overseas exchange, international field trips and enrichment activities?
Scholarships will be awarded to students with good academic performance on a case-to-case basis. All students will receive substantial sponsorship and subsidy for international field trips and other global enrichment opportunities. - What funding resources, prizes, and scholarships are available?
In addition to the IBGM-specific financial support (e.g. for the Leadership Boot Camp, the Asia-Pacific Study Tour, the International Field Trip, and the Sponsorship Scheme), there are various financial resources available at HKU Business School, CEDARS, and HKU. - What if I have further enquiries about the programme?
