The EdUHK Undergraduate Programme Nominations Scheme (UPNS) aims to attract young talents who aspire to develop their potential to the full and serve our school community. Our UPNS is different from the School Principal’s Nominations (SPN) Scheme under JUPAS which is specially designed for schools to nominate students who have contributed to social services, or made outstanding achievements in non-academic areas such as sports, music, social services, other cultural activities, or who have demonstrated leadership abilities. It is a deep collaboration with our school partners aimed at selecting students with the potential to become outstanding educators and future professionals.
