What is the situation of universities in Hong Kong like?

How good is Hong Kong’s international education?

Hong Kong has not only absorbed advanced educational concepts from European and American countries, but is also rooted in Chinese culture.

Not only does it mutually recognize higher education diplomas with the mainland, it is also internationally recognized and credits mutually recognized with European and American schools. The combination of Chinese and Western education is a unique advantage of Hong Kong education. It is the only place in the world besides Singapore that combines traditional Chinese culture with advanced Western culture.

In fact, there are many high-quality schools in mainland China such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Why do you choose schools in Hong Kong?

Some people say that the smog in major mainland cities is really overwhelming for many parents, who have to worry about their children's health and future. The health of their children is indeed the basic point of consideration, but more parents will make a firm choice because of the uniqueness and quality of Hong Kong education itself. International schools in Hong Kong are attracting more and more parents to apply because of their international curriculum, small class education, and entertaining education.
