New Student Orientation

Orientation Programme

To help new students get acquainted with the CityUHK community as soon as possible, the Global Engagement Office will organise a series of induction programmes exclusively for non-local students before the semester starts. The Orientation Programme comprises two parts, 1) Pre-arrival Orientation sessions (online/physical) and 2) In-person Orientation Programme activities.

Pre-arrival Orientation Sessions

Our Pre-arrival Orientation sessions will help you understand more about our local culture and get well-prepared for your study at CityUHK before you travel to Hong Kong. Schedule of the Pre-arrival Orientation sessions will be available soon.

*For online sessions, Zoom links will be sent to new students via email. Stay tuned!

In-person Orientation Programme [26 – 30 August 2024]

Participation in the University Orientation Programme is strongly encouraged. The Orientation Programme of Semester A, 2024-25 begins from 26 August 2024. It is very important that you attend orientation activities to get yourself familiarised with the people and campus resources at CityUHK. Please plan to arrive in Hong Kong on 26 August 2024 (Monday) and attend the Orientation Programme. Details and schedule of the Orientation Programme will be available in early August.

Airport Pickup Services

Free shuttle bus service will be provided for students to get to CityUHK campus or student residence from the Hong Kong International Airport during Orientation Week. Due to limited capacity, each student may reserve up to three seats only (including two guest seats). Spots will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.

Registration will be open in early August.
