Rationale
College Dining is an integral part of students’ college life at CW Chu College alongside with full residence. It aims to
- enhance interaction among students and with teachers
- enable students to benefit from the wisdom and experience of speakers from various walks of life
There are two types of College Dinning, namely Communal Dinners (CD) and High Table Dinners (HTD). All CWC students who are enjoying the hostel residence for the first four years must join the meal plan as part of the non-credit bearing College General Education (CGE) Programme (through pre-assignment of the courses GECW 1000/ 2000/ 3000/ 4000).
Assessment Methods for GECW1000/ 2000/ 3000/ 4000 (2025–26)
Special Note: In 2025–26, attendance at CD and HTD will NOT be counted for the non-credit bearing College General Education courses: GECW1000/ 2000/ 3000/ 4000. Since hostel accommodation and College Dining are bundled, there is no reduction or refund of both hostel fee and meal charge. Please refer to the pages on Assessment Methods for GECW1000/ 2000/ 3000/ 4000 and Dining Arrangements for details.
New requirement for obtaining a PP grade for the above CGE courses are as follows:
| Regular meal plan participates
(Year 1) |
|
| Regular meal plan participates
(Year 2, 3 & 4) |
|
| Students granted CD exemption for the full duration of Term 1/ Term 2/ whole year |
|
Participation in College Organized Activities/ Cultural Activities:
To fulfill the requirement of 5 or 8 activities, any physical or virtual activities chosen from the following list are considered acceptable:
| Category | Description | Attendance Record |
| (i) | Any activities organized by the official student bodies of CWC (e.g. Student Honour Code Committee) and/or new student clubs recognized by the College. Activity organization also counts.*
* Note: As a matter of principle, service should be completely voluntary without any other motives. Therefore, activities organized by the CWC Service Team (whether joining as Service Team Members or general participants) to serve the community will not be counted.
|
Students’ attendance under categories (i), (ii) and (iii) are recorded by our electronic attendance taking machines/ hard copy signing sheets/ Zoom records, so there is NO need for participants to provide attendance proof. The College Office will upload the attendance record of all these activities to the Registration and Attendance System (RAS) within two weeks upon completion of each activity.
CWC students may login to RAS for checking your own attendance record.
|
| (ii) | Any planned or upcoming activities organized by the College Office and Resident Tutors (RTs) formally announced via the College mass email and other promotional channels.
|
|
| (iii) | Any sports activities arranged by the College or jointly organized with other official units.
|
|
| (iv) | Activities not organized by the College:
Participation, as an audience/ performer/ participant etc., in face-to-face or virtual cultural activities (broadly defined) organized by any other units within or outside the University (including other CUHK units/ Faculties/ Departments/ Programmes/ outside organizations). These activities include but not limited to concerts, plays, dramas, films, operas, cultural tours, art fairs, museum tours, talks, workshops, conferences etc.
In meeting the attendance requirement, the College is also pleased to introduce the “Self and The Significant Others” Scheme which is an alternative of participating in standard College activities. This Scheme has been introduced since the academic year 2023–24, strives to promote communication and cultural exchange among our students and their important companions. Students engaging in this programme and submitting the online form by the deadline, will have their attendance records doubled (i.e., 1 activity = 2 attendance records) after review.
|
Submission Deadline: 29 November 2025 (Saturday, 23:59)
Students are required to complete the relevant online form(s) to document their participation, event details, proof of participation (including a copy of the ticket/ email confirmation alongside with a photo of the student and his/ her ‘significant others’ taken at the venue on the event day), and any financial requirements (only for Self and The Significant Others Scheme). These submissions will undergo review by the Dean of Students (DoS) before being included in your attendance record. For virtual events, the event duration must be a minimum of 45 minutes. In the case of very brief videos, students may combine multiple presentations to constitute one activity (e.g., three 15-minute videos can count as one activity).

These applications must be submitted alongside a request for exemption from hostel accommodation, and will only be considered on exceptional grounds (e.g. clinical placement for medical students, family duties/ emergencies, serious health reason) by the Student Affairs Committee.
