Cathay Pacific Education Abroad Scholarship

Students participating in the Education Abroad Programs between UBC and universities in Asia are eligible for this $7,950 scholarship. The award alternates between a student coming to UBC, with preference given to a student from Hong Kong, and a UBC Vancouver student exchanging with a visiting student. Recipients are designated Cathay Pacific Education Abroad Scholars.

There is no separate application. The award for the incoming student is made on the recommendation of an Alumni Committee in Hong Kong, and the award for the outgoing student is made on the nomination of the Education Abroad Advisory Committee.

The scholarship was endowed by Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd. and the Province of British Columbia.
