School Nominations Direct Admission Scheme (SNDAS)
School Nominations Direct Admission Scheme (SNDAS)
The objective of School Nominations Direct Admission Scheme (SNDAS) is to give due recognition to applicants who have contributed to social services or made outstanding achievements in non-academic areas or who have demonstrated leadership abilities. The University would exercise greater flexibility under the existing mechanism in admitting students who demonstrate talents and competencies which could not be fully assessed by the HKDSE Examination. SNDAS is a “programme-student matching exercise” in essence in recognition of special talents. For 2022 entry, the following UGC-funded undergraduate programmes will be participating in the SNDAS:
