Overview

The Financial Assistance Scheme for Designated Evening Adult Education Courses provides eligible students with financial assistance in the form of tuition fee reimbursement. Students who fulfill the prescribed criteria can obtain 30%, 50% or 100% reimbursement of the tuition fees paid after the end of each school term.

Level of Fee Reimbursement

  • Students must have attained the minimum attendance requirement as confirmed by the Approved Course Providers (ACPs) for reimbursement of 30% of the tuition fees paid in two instalments, upon the confirmation of eligibility by the Student Finance Office (SFO) based on the information provided by the ACPs.

  • The parent or legal guardian of needy FAEAEC students may submit “Household Application for Student Financial Assistance Schemes” to obtain “FULL” or “HALF” level of assistance. For the details of the means test and level of fee reimbursement, please visit this webpage.

  • The SFO will issue the Notification of Result to applicants in writing. Students eligible for "FULL" or "HALF" level of assistance will be issued with ECs and may apply for “FULL” or “HALF” fee reimbursement (FR). They should complete and return the ECs to the ACPs within one week from the commencement date of school or within two weeks from the date of issue of the EC (whichever is later) in accordance with the Guidance Notes issued with the EC for “FULL” or “HALF” level of FR applications.

Note: The EC for the 2024/25 school year will apply to the terms studied in the 2024/25 school year only.
