6. I understand that the RGC will only process applications nominated by the eight UGC-funded universities to compete for the HKPFS award. In the event that I have been nominated by two universities, the RGC will only process the nomination tendered by the university for which I have indicated priority (i.e. Choice 1) and subsequent award of fellowship by the RGC will also be according to the indicated priority (i.e. Choice 1) of me. If I select two different programmes within the same university and is nominated subsequently, the university shall have the discretion to decide on which programme it supports the nomination.

9. I understand that the RGC will not consider any claim for cost incurred by me in relation to this application for the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme and for the PhD programme admission to the universities funded by the University Grants Committee of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
