Estimated total cost to plan around before scholarship.

Tuition-covered only; no living allowance baked in.

Submission posture
Selective submission copy

Prepared for a more selective review where fit, evidence, and packet quality all matter.

I prepared this one-page sheet as the front document for a HKUST application packet. It keeps my verified Vinschool record, the clearest external competition signals in my file, and my current 1Matrix internship in one fast-read document.

Positioning Statement
Emphasize engineering energy, product-building interest, and why scholarship conversion is the gate that makes this lane real. My file is strongest when it reads as a serious, disciplined fit for this programme rather than as a prestige-first application.
