Both are one-off awards
to be deducted from the
winners¡¦ academic fees
for the first year of
their study at the
University of Warwick.
A total of 42 complete
applications have been
received for the
scholarship. Members of
the screening panel met
on 3rd September 2011 to
short-list the

particular special
because this was the

participated in the

members of the panel
included WGAHK current &

committee members, and

partially sponsored by
two supportive alumni.

WGAHK as well as a
HK$500 book coupon as a
token of encouragement
to their achievement.
The 2 scholarship
winners each received a
big symbolic scholarship
cheque at the ceremony.
Their actual scholarship
money will be deposited
directly to their
accounts with Warwick
after they have
enrolled.
The WGAHK Scholarship
Fund was set up in 2001
and this year marks its
