(Please note that international students cannot return to their home country to participate in the exchange program.)
Partner universities have their own admissions requirements for exchange students, including language proficiency and academic performance standards. A student applying for an exchange program must meet the standards of and be accepted by the evaluation committees at both NTUST and the partner institution. Acceptance by NTUST alone does not guarantee participation in the exchange program.
Once students are accepted by partner universities, they will need to apply for a visa to the host country by themselves and find information about the details of visa application for students from their home country (which may be different from that for applications from Taiwan citizens). Students may apply for a visa at an embassy or representative office of the host country in their home country or in Taiwan.
If the host country does not have an embassy or representative office in Taiwan, or if the office in Taiwan accepts visa applications only from Taiwan citizens, the student may need to travel to a nearby country that has an embassy or representative office or return to their home country in order to apply for a visa.
If you are interested in applying for the Student Exchange Program, we suggest that you arrange to take one of the official tests of English language proficiency indicated above (as well as proficiency tests in any of the other languages required by the partner university that you are interested in).
