Miss Ma Ming Yan (Carissa), a year 4 student from CW Chu College, has been awarded The Esther Yewpick Lee Millennium Scholarship 2016.

The Esther Yewpick Lee Millennium Scholarship is granted annually to a candidate who demonstrates outstanding academic capability, has a high respect for humanity, possesses a curious mind, moral integrity and a spirit of adventure, and demonstrates the potential to contribute to the well-being of the community. The Selection Committee found Carissa an ideal candidate.

The Esther Yewpick Lee Millennium Scholarship, tenable at the University of Oxford, was established with funds from the estate of the late Dr Esther Yewpick Lee, whose family has had strong connections with and affection for both CUHK and Oxford. The award fully sponsors the scholar for studying a postgraduate programme, covering the University and College fees at Oxford, return economy class air fare, and an annual personal allowance which is expected to take care of board and lodging and other maintenance costs, for a maximum period of 3 years.

The College extends our hearty congratulations to Carissa!
