Pre-Arrival Preparations
Before you arrive, start your adventure by exploring essential pre-arrival resources. Complete the Pre-Arrival Survey and Degree Verification, and prepare for your journey to Taiwan by selecting your courses, applying for credit transfer, and connecting with student volunteers who can assist you during your transition. Once you arrive at NTU, you’ll need to navigate several important procedures, including health exams, registration, and orientation activities. Be sure to secure your Alien Resident Certificate (ARC), arrange your insurance, and complete your Chinese and English proficiency tests.
Academic Success at NTU
Academically, NTU provides a rich environment to help you succeed. Stay informed by keeping track of the university calendar, take advantage of opportunities to learn Chinese, and access academic counseling when needed. You’ll also want to familiarize yourself with transfer options and the school-leaving procedures as you progress through your program. Campus life is equally important, offering a wide range of activities and resources. You can explore local resources, apply for your visa or ARC, make use of campus facilities, and find housing. NTU encourages students to join clubs, participate in events, and become fully immersed in its lively community.
Prioritizing Well-being and Financial Management
Your well-being is a top priority at NTU, with comprehensive insurance and health counseling services available. You can also enhance your experience through programs like the Second Mentor Project and by connecting with a host family. Managing your finances is made easier with detailed information on tuition fees, the cost of living, scholarships, and access to banking services.
Work and Career Development
NTU also offers various work opportunities, from obtaining a work permit and pursuing part-time jobs to securing internships and exploring post-graduation career options.
