Taipei’s university centers commonly organize courses by term, while private providers may offer different intake patterns. Check the placement process and application window early, especially if your travel dates are fixed.
NTNU’s regular format combines language and supplementary hours; its intensive format allocates more time to language classes. NTU CLD states 50-minute class periods. Advertised weekly hours are not automatically comparable.
Traditional characters are explicitly described by some programs, including Tamkang and TCA. Confirm the writing system, phonetic system and textbook edition for the particular class you select.
