Taiwan Scholarships in 2023: Admissions Open in Taiwan Universities
List of Scholarships in Taiwan - Taiwan Government and University Scholarships
Today’s academic news is the application window opening for Taiwanese Government Scholarships for the batch of 2023 in 2023 for all students of all subjects. Taiwan Scholarship admissions do not require IELTS or application fees; so it is very simple and inexpensive to apply for Taiwanese Scholarships.
With China offering world-class higher education and Chinese Scholarships, one may not think of studying in Taiwan, a country, which is also a part of the People’s Republic of China. This country’s official language is also Mandarin, but at higher education levels, a number of programs are offered in the English language to cater to the needs of international applicants.
Education in Taiwan is provided in a large variety of subject areas and there are generous scholarships available as well. The tuition fee is relatively low despite the fact that the education system is parallel to the United States of America.
English Language Requirement for Scholarship Admissions in Taiwan
At the higher educational institutes of Taiwan, the degree programs are available in Mandarin and English. The students applying for English language programs have to prove their English language proficiency via IELTS, PTE, DET, and TOEFL iBT.
Applicants may also provide English Language Proficiency test as an alternative to IELTS. However, this requirement can be waived if they are native speakers of the English language or if the language of instruction in their last degree was English.
Taiwan Student Visa and Work Permit:
Fortunately, you can work while being on a study visa in Taiwan. But, for that, you will have to apply for a Taiwanese work permit. A work permit is granted after getting a permission letter from the student’s school stating that the student needs the job to meet his/her day-to-day expenses or that the job will assist the student in their course work.
Cost of Living in Taiwan:
The cost of living in Taiwan is pretty high. A single person can expect to spend more than 52,000 NTD on living expenses. A family of four can survive on more than 110,000 NTD. Still, as compared to the US this cost of living is low.
Taiwan Scholarships in Top Taiwanese Universities:
There are a number of higher educational institutions in Taiwan, a number of which are also in the QS World University Ranking. The top five most competent universities are National Taiwan University, National Tsing Hua University, National Chiao Tung University, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, and National Cheng Kung University.
