ISU Scholarship for International Students: Scholarship types and amounts are classified as follows: (1) The scholarship amount for new international enrollees is NT$40,000~180,000 per person. The scholarship will be divided by two and awarded in two semesters after being approved by the Scholarship Committee for International Students. (2) The scholarship amount for continuing international students (excluding those granted with or continuing to receive the scholarship for new international enrollees) is NT$30,000~90,000 per person. The scholarship will be awarded in the semester of approval after being approved by the Scholarship Committee for International Students. (3) Scholarship recipients are under an obligation to do service-learning under the supervision of the Office of International and Cross-Strait Affairs. The Office will evaluate the recipients’ performance on service-learning at the end of every semester, and the evaluation results will be an important reference for the Scholarship Committee for International Students to consideration of applications for (continuing to receive) the scholarship. (4) Scholarship recipients should report to the Office of International and Cross-Strait Affairs and complete registration on the first day of school. The Office will deduct the tuition, other required fees and dormitory fees from the scholarship, and then return the balance to the recipients. If the scholarship amount, however, is less than the total fees payable, recipients have to pay for the difference. (5) If a new international enrollee who is also a scholarship recipient will not live on campus during the first year of study for special reasons, he/she should not request ISU to give him/her the scholarship amount used to offset dormitory fees as mentioned above. (6) A scholarship recipient will not receive the scholarship if he/she 1) does not complete the registration procedure for the semester when the scholarship is awarded, 2) retains the student status, or 3) transfers to another school. The recipient will be asked to return the full amount of the scholarship awarded if he/she suspends the schooling or withdraws from ISU while ISU is in session. In addition, a scholarship recipient will be disqualified from continuing to receive the scholarship if he/she returns to ISU after suspension of schooling, has obtained a personal conduct score of below 80 for the previous semester, or has had a record of minor demerits or even severer punishment. 29 (7) The Scholarship Committee for International Students will review scholarship applications.
