| Substitution for AS Chinese Language and Culture |

| Those without a Chinese Language qualification at HKCEE level (substituted by an alternative language other than Chinese and English) must have an additional AL/AS subject to substitute for AS Chinese Language and Culture. |

|
| On an exceptional basis, students who have pursued a school curriculum (locally or overseas) that does not include formal Chinese language studies, yet who are conversant in spoken Chinese, may be admitted to certain programmes of study in which written Chinese is not an essential element. For such students, the language requirement for Chinese is substituted by an alternative language (other than Chinese or English). |
