Visiting
Program Overview
The Visiting Program is a fee-paying option accessible through either the Exchange Students Selection Process or direct application to the university. This program allows students to pursue studies at their preferred universities for one semester or an entire academic year as short-term/non-degree-seeking students. Visiting students share similar rights and responsibilities with exchange students, with the exception of tuition fees. Visiting students are required to cover both NTU and the host university’s tuition fees.
In addition to our partner universities, the Visiting Student Program has enabled some students to secure admission to prestigious institutions such as Harvard University and Stanford University, broadening the range of choices available to students.
