📖Introduction

As a university with the longest established tradition among institutions of higher education in Hong Kong, the history of Lingnan University can be traced back to 1888 when the Christian College was founded in Guangzhou. In 1967, Lingnan University (Lingnan College then) was re-established in Hong Kong. Lingnan University is funded by UGC, and well-known for its small-but-excellent liberal art education that offers undergraduate, taught and research postgraduate programmes in the fields of humanities, business, and social sciences, as well as comprehensive curriculum covering diverse general education and interdisciplinary courses, to provide students with firm knowledge foundation across different areas.

🏠 Accommodation

The ten blocks of student hostels in Lingnan University provide around 2,600 hostel places for Lingnan students. MEA Hall to JCF Hall provided 1,500 places for students since 1997. In each hostel, there are a common room floor, seven residential floors, and quarters for wardens and senior tutors on the top floor.

The hostel fee for each resident covers one residential year. A deposit of $500 is required to be paid when a student settles the hostel fee. The deposit paid will be refunded at the end of the residential year after the deduction of the air-conditioning charges and any fees to cover damage to furniture/ facilities. The hostel fee is payable in two installments, normally in August and December. In 2017-18, the installment payable per academic term for newly admitted is $5,465 (MEA Hall to JCF Hall double room); HK$6,035 (WHC, WJY, JCNG and JCNH double room); and HK$4,455 (WHC and WJY triple room).
