How can I apply for a scholarship?

We assist students who wish to apply for a ROC Ministry of Education scholarship. Tests are given twice a year (in September and March) for students applying for the scholarship. Students will be given more information on application and test times in those months. Additionally various governmental agencies in Taiwan (including the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Taipei City Government) offer over 200 scholarships to students studying at the MTC from countries with and without diplomatic relations with Taiwan for the purpose of further enhancing cultural exchanges. The MTC also offers scholarships to 40 students with excellent academic performance each year.

Applicants must meet the following conditions:

1. Be students of the MTC.
2. Applicants must not be overseas Chinese currently studying in a university in Taiwan, not hold an ROC passport, and not have ROC citizenship (including dual citizenship).
3. Have been enrolled at least 10 hours per week at the MTC during the previous three month quarter.
4. Plan to enroll in at least a ten-hour class at the MTC for another 6 months.
5. Obtain a monthly grade no lower than 85%, not have studied at the MTC more than 3 years or not have studied the same course material for three terms.
6. Applying for a second 6-month, students may not be enrolled in a class studying the same materials he/she was studying when the first 6-month scholarship was awarded.
7. Must be a dedicated student of upright character without a negative record.

If you have received this scholarship twice before, you may not apply again. If you currently have a scholarship (1-year/half year/three months), please do not apply.

These regulations are subject to amendment. In the event of any discrepancies, the latest version of these regulations shall take precedence.

Financial Aid and Scholarships
The MTC does not offer financial aid for students. However, twice a year students in good standing may apply for a 6 month scholarship offered by the Ministry of Education. Information about these scholarships is given during orientation. For additional scholarship information, applicants should contact the nearest ROC embassy, consulate or representative office.

Applicants who have been awarded scholarships by the Ministry of Education in their home country should note that funds are not disbursed at the beginning of the term but at the end of the first month and at the end of every subsequent month. Students should therefore ensure that they have adequate funds available to pay school fees (if not covered by the scholarship) and for their first month in Taiwan. A minimum of US$1,500 or the equivalent is recommended. These students are also reminded to send their MTC application materials to the cultural division of the nearest ROC embassy, consulate, or representative office.

Students applying for bank loans, loan deferments and the like should bear in mind that the MTC is an extra-curricular, non-diploma granting program and, as an extension of university, does not qualify as an institute offering benefits requiring full-time student status.
