Through the generous donations that we have received from numerous donors, the University offers scholarships, prizes, and other academic awards to provide due recognition to students of the University who have demonstrated academic excellence and outstanding performance in other areas; as well as different types of bursaries and loans to help eligible students who are in genuine needs. In 2006-2007 academic year, over 2,700 individual scholarships and prizes were awarded through the University and its constituent colleges, to students in various disciplines of study, with the total combined value amounting to approximately over HK$60 million. A list of related schemes offered in last year can be found from The Chinese University of Hong Kong Calendar:
