PolyU JUPAS Admissions Q&A 2026 to be held in early May, featuring on-campus and online activities to provide up-to-date programme information
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) will hold the PolyU JUPAS Admissions Q&A 2026 in early May. Designed specifically for current JUPAS applicants, the event will provide latest programme information and hands-on advice, in person and online, enabling students to re-evaluate and refine their programme choices before the mid-to-late July modification deadline.
The event will feature a rich array of on-campus and online activities, as well as the Whiz Team—a dynamic group comprising staff from the PolyU Academic Registry, professors, programme representatives and student representatives—who will provide participants with practical, wide-ranging advice. On 9 May (Saturday), the PolyU campus will come alive with nearly 40 diverse sessions, including an admission talk organised by the Academic Registry which will cover the latest admission updates, flexible admissions arrangements and JUPAS strategies, as well as programme seminars and consultations hosted by various faculties and departments, during which prospective applicants can seek advice directly from professors and programme representatives. In addition, a group of student representatives will be on hand to share interview tips and first-hand experience of campus life, while guided tours will be arranged so that applicants can get a taste of the PolyU learning environment. From 11 to 13 May, individual faculties and departments will further offer online talks and consultation sessions, allowing applicants to access programme information conveniently.
PolyU has adopted a flexible undergraduate admissions strategy to offer students a greater variety of programme options, while launching programmes across various emerging fields to better meet society’s talent needs. The University allows students to tailor their study paths to better suit their personal interests: those with clear academic goals can choose their preferred departmental schemes or programmes directly, while others wishing to further explore their options can enrol on one of the bachelor’s degree schemes to gain a better understanding of the different majors within a faculty or school before making their choice of study path. For the 2026/27 academic year, the Faculty of Engineering will launch the BSc (Hons) in Sports Science and Technology, and the Faculty of Humanities will offer the BSc (Hons) in Language Science and Technology. Meanwhile, the University will continue to offer the Bachelor’s Degree Scheme in Interdisciplinary Studies. Students admitted to this scheme will be able to explore programmes from different faculties and schools before deciding on their majors, allowing for more self-directed and flexible learning.
To foster students’ global perspectives, PolyU will continue to offer an additional HK$30,000 overseas exchange funding to all undergraduate students who receive an academic Entry Scholarship, supporting their participation in student exchange programmes. The University’s goal is for all undergraduates graduating in the 2027/28 academic year and thereafter to engage in at least one non-local learning experience before graduation.
