The University has entered into articulation agreements with two universities in Hong Kong, China — The Chinese University of Hong Kong in Shatin and Lingnan University in FuTei, Tuen Mun.

Students graduating with an associate degree from the Community College at Lingnan University with an average grade point ratio of at least 2.50 will be accepted into Fairleigh Dickinson to complete their bachelor’s degrees. Community College offers a total of 14 full-time associate degree programs in the arts, business, social sciences and visual arts.

Lingnan University aspires to be an internationally recognized university and seeks to provide its students with an education in the liberal arts traditions from both East and West. It takes a whole-person approach to education that enables its students to think, judge, care and, ultimately, act responsibly in the changing circumstances of Hong Kong, the region and the world.

The agreement with the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has established a joint- degree program for the bachelor of arts in communication. The academic sequence of courses for the first two years of study will be at CUHK’s School of Continuing Education, and the degree completion will take place at the Metropolitan Campus. The School of Continuing Education offers master’s, bachelor’s, diploma and certification programs.

CUHK’s mission is to assist in the preservation, creation, application and dissemination of knowledge by teaching, research and public service in a wide range of disciplines, thereby serving the needs and enhancing the well-being of the citizens of Hong Kong, China as a whole and the wider world community.
