The School offers a fee remission scheme for needy students (including those from families receiving the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance (CSSA) and students receiving financial assistance provided by the Student Financial Office (SFO)). Subject to the availability of funds in the fee remission/scholarship scheme, the School will offer fee remission to needy students.
Applications are normally made before the commencement of a school year, but exceptional circumstances (such as a family member contracting chronic illness which requires high medical expenses, sudden and drastic changes to the family’s financial situation, etc) would warrant special consideration and suitable arrangements.
Needy students should apply for fee remission through their parents or legal guardians, and depending on the gross annual income of the students’ family, different levels of fee remission, capped at full fee cut (100%), can be provided.

(Reference will be made to the SFO’s definitions, standards and requirements for the interpretation of the terms used)
The School will make reference to the applicant family’s Gross Annual Income and the number of family members when considering the fee remission application. Please refer to Table 1: “Level of Fee Remission” attached which shows the different ranges of Gross Annual Income and the corresponding fee remission levels.

Application forms will be distributed to ALL students who are offered a school place. Parents or legal guardians of students who wish to apply for fee remission should fill in the application forms according to the guidelines given and submit the supporting documents requested.together with the completed application forms on or before the application deadline stated on the form.

The School will receive applications after the applicant has accepted the School’s offer of a school place.

The School will notify the applicants of the results by mail within 30 days from the application deadline provided that all required information and documentary evidence have been received by the School.

Example: In a family of 4 with 2 daugthers attending Heep Yunn School, in determining the eligibility of Daughter A for fee remission, the applicant should refer to the row of 4 family members; while for Daugther B, the member of family members would be adjusted to 4+1, hence the applicant should refer to the row of 5 family members for Daugther B.
