United Christian College (Kowloon East) is a Christian secondary school established in 2003. The school is located in Shun Lee, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The school aims to provide quality holistic education to every student based on God's love and Biblical principles. The school believes that every child has the potential to succeed if given proper guidance and nurture. The school trusts that through the Christian dedication and professionalism of teachers inside and the involvement of parents, students will be able to obtain a balanced development, formulate life direction and goals, build a positive life view, strengthen lifelong learning, lay a solid foundation for further education, acquire a sense of social responsibility, and live a life according to God's will.

English is used as the medium of instruction.

The school also provides church life to students and parents. United Christian Community Church (UCCC) [基督教匯基堂] was established by the school chaplain and the school principal in October 2004 for the purpose. About 100 adults and 60 teenagers attended the church in August 2006.

The school building is adjacent to Shun Lee Disciplined Services Quarters and Saint Too Canaan College near New Clear Water Bay Road. The construction of a new dormitory would start from October 2007 to provide a hostel to students from distant districts and the Mainland China. At the same time, a new chapel for United Christian Community Church (UCCC) would be built as a sign of school-church integration.
