English & Chinese Language Requirements
Students whose entry qualification in HKDSE Chinese Language/English Language is below Level 4 are required to take the following additional language courses:
(i) LC0200A English for Academic Purposes 1* and LC0200B English for Academic Purposes 2 (6 credit units#)
(ii) CHIN1001 University Chinese I (3 credit units#)
Early Exit Arrangement
Bachelor's degree students successfully completing LC0200A and LC0200B for a total of 6 credits will be considered to have achieved the minimum standard required for proceeding to the GE English courses. Students who have achieved a grade B or above in their overall course results for LC0200A will be permitted to exit the programme at this point. They will achieve 3 credits and also be considered to have satisfied the pre-requistie for entry to the GE English courses.
# The credits earned from taking LC0200A (3 credits) and/or LC0200B (3 credits)/CHIN1001 will not be counted towards the minimum credit units required for graduation and will not be included in the calculation of cumulative grade point average (CGPA). However, they will be counted towards the maximum credit units permitted.
For students whose entry qualifications in Chinese Language/English Language do not fall within those mentioned above:
(i) English Language Requirement: students who do not have Hong Kong public examinations results as specified above, the Chan Feng Men-ling Chan Shuk-lin Language Centre (LC) will invite them to sit for an English Placement Test to determine whether they need to take the courses LC0200A and LC0200B. Students may, instead of taking the Test, provide an alternative English proficiency qualification (e.g. TOFEL or IELTS) for consideration by the LC. A waiver from taking the LC0200A and LC0200B may be granted for students who have achieved the required English proficiency. For details, please visit the website of Chan Feng Men-ling Chan Shuk-lin Language Centre.
(ii) Chinese Language Requirement: students are not required to take additional Chinese course.
