The Student Buddy Program is organized by the University’s International Pioneer Club, which matches international students with locals who can help them learn about Taiwanese culture and adapt to life in Taiwan. The program plays an important role in promoting cultural and language exchange and provides a unique opportunity for international and local students to make new friends and expand their horizons.

NCHU offers a wide range of programs for international students. Whether you are seeking a degree, joint degree, or just an exchange experience, we’ve got you covered. Just note that the application procedures and tuition will vary depending on students’ status. If you do not qualify for a tuition waiver, we provide many scholarships to support your learning journey here at NCHU. For more information, please visit the NCHU Office of International Affairs website.

The University has a collection of articles and videos shared by international students who previously studied at NCHU, through which you can learn about life on campus through the perspective of a fellow student. Some articles and videos are in English while others are in students’ native tongues. Contact us if you are interested in reading/watching these articles/videos.

The Office of International Affairs and the International Pioneer Club co-organize welcoming parties, cultural tours, University anniversary parades, commencement tea parties, International Cultural Week, and a wide range of other events and activities to help international students adapt to life on campus, enrich their experience in Taiwan, and foster their relationship with local faculty members and students.

NCHU has partner university agreements with multiple foreign institutions that provide NCHU students a wide range of short-term exchange opportunities, reciprocity programs, and scholarships.
