Olidan Felixander Kai Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Web and Multimedia Development Stream, 2014-16)

HKU SPACE CC opened my eyes to take up opportunities and to grow while having fun along the study life’s journey. Among the students from my class, most did their best during their examinations for university. However, I think I stand out as I didn’t take my public exam seriously like what others have done. I’ve been a playful student during my secondary school days with a mindset “I’ll never get in to university anyway, why try?” and the worst, “Only locals get to universities, I always have my home country to go back to and study there instead anyway”. I expected to simply work, take up Foundation Diploma or go back to where I’m from. With that said, I still think I’m playful but with a change of mind. I applied to HKU SPACE CC in case I’d be taken. Being able to reach the minimum and from the passion I’ve shown for computers, I did. This opportunity opened my eyes. I realized that chances are not meant to be taken for granted. I have striven and studied harder than my days in secondary school, and it bore fruit as I’m now able to get to university. During my stay, I’ve met like-minded and hardworking people. I can say that I’ve definitely matured over these 2 years with these people. Taking up Higher Diploma, it tremendously enforced what I wanted to do in the future and my interests, as well as know the things that I don’t particularly like. It’s been great studying here! I’ve always believed that everything happens for a reason. That there is a big, overall plan to each and every person, whether you’ve tried your best in your public exam, or the opposite. Just keep your head up high, and continue taking steps forward. It may not be the direction you’ve originally planned, but treasuring and grabbing opportunities that arise while trying your best will definitely lead you to a fruitful future! Keep your options open. Tunnel focusing university may help, but don’t stress over it too much. Good luck and have fun! To the ethnic minorities applying: Don’t let the language barrier stop you. Don’t be intimidated. Reach out, and you’ll find cool and awesome people that will accept you, like what they have done to me! View Details

2 years in AHS programme was not a cakewalk for me, but it was worth it. All the courses, practicum were very intense as it provided various opportunities to equip students to step in nursing field. Nursing is not only about practicing skills, but also requiring your evidence based, professional knowledge. Apart from the theories and human physiology, practicum in different health care settings was also provided to every student. This valuable experience inspired and motivated us to be more proactive in learning and caring. Challenges, difficulties and frustrations are unavoidable, but it is blessed to have many supportive companions and lecturers along these 2 years.

Hui Yat Fung 2014-16 Associate of Business Administration, Year 2 (Applied Economics Theme)

我當初入讀HKU SPACE CC時，只抱着「過了這兩年，進大學便海闊天空」的心態，只視副學士為升讀大學的跳板，沒有想過校園生活會否愉快，也未想過在這裡會見識到甚麼，學到甚麼，得到甚麼，最重要是最後能進大學。我想，不少同學都和我有相似的想法。兩年過去，我的想法改變了。Offer固然重要，但個人成長也同樣重要。這是一個很好讓我好好磨練一番的機會，得到的可能比大學更多。在大學，可以選擇去玩、走堂、燃燒GPA；但在這裡，只能專注讀書，做好時間管理，應付各種挑戰。經過這兩年，我感覺到自己不再是一個聽從家長老師命令和容易受人影響的小孩，而是有自己想法和價值觀，懂時間分配，能夠自己處理問題的成年人。 View Details
