(I) Accommodations
Our students need to arrange their accommodations outside the campus by themselves. (Due to the limited space in the dorm, the NTU dormitory is only offered to the NTU degree students and official exchange students.)

(II) Insurance
Foreigners are not able to join the National Health Insurance (NHI) in Taiwan until they satisfy certain requirements (NHI information comes below). If they see a doctor, they need to pay full fees; therefore, students are advised to take their own overseas insurance in their home country, which will cover their medical expenses in Taiwan.
Those who have been staying in Taiwan for consecutive 6 months after they receive the ARC can apply for the National Health Insurance (you may leave Taiwan once for less than 30 days; and after excluding the days you are out of Taiwan, the days you stay in Taiwan shall be exactly 6 months in total).
Go to the Bureau of National Health Insurance for the Insurance IC card with your ARC, insurance sheet and one photo (2 inches).
