Hong Kong Students in Other Countries

EDUCATION

English-speaking countries other than Britain continued to attract Hong Kong students. Of the 3,909 students who went to Canada in 1975, the majority entered secondary schools in preparation for college or university. Most of the 2,601 students issued with visas for study in the United States entered post-secondary establish- ments. The number of students who went to Australia in 1975 was only 139, mostly for post-secondary courses.

The overseas students and scholarships section of the Education Department advises students wishing to go overseas for study and supplies information on educa- tional institutions in Britain and elsewhere.
