The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong

We have not yet researched this university's admission pages, so we will not guess its deadlines or fees. The general process for Hong Kong — exams, application platform, visa and costs — is in the Hong Kong guide.

Indian students go to Hong Kong for its English-medium, internationally ranked universities and proximity/connectivity to mainland China and the region. Hong Kong's Immigration Arrangements for Non-local Graduates (IANG) give graduates of local full-time accredited programmes a notably open post-study stay-and-work route, without needing a job offer at the point of first application.

After graduating

Under the Immigration Arrangements for Non-local Graduates (IANG): graduates of a full-time, locally-accredited undergraduate-or-higher programme (bachelor's/master's/doctoral of at least 1 academic year, or a QF Level 5+ programme with 120+ QF credits) who apply within 6 months of their graduation date ('recent graduates') can get an initial 24-month stay with NO job offer required. 'Non-recent graduates' (applying after 6 months) need a job offer at graduate level and market-rate pay. Extensions follow a 3-3 year pattern (job offer required, market-level pay). IANG holders on 'time limitation only' status may take up and change employment freely without prior Immigration Department approval. After 2 years on IANG with assessable income of at least HKD 2 million in the prior tax year, a 'top-tier' extension of 6 years without other conditions is available. Processing: about 2 weeks for recent-graduate applications, 4 weeks for non-recent (longer June-August). Right of abode can be applied for after 7 continuous years of ordinary residence.
