thank you for this!! it´s really helpful and making me want to move there :)
you look like dahyun from twice! anyway thank you for this video!
OMG thank you!!!!!
I was going to say the same
Thank you, this video is pretty thorough and will definitely help me plan my semester in Taiwan.
Glad to hear it!!
Thanks for the insights. Appreciate it!
No worries!!
Thank you very much for this video, I am moving to Taiwan this August, on MOFA scholarship, so really excited to get to know the country and the culture!
Greetings from Honduras!!
Hello!!! Congratulations on receiving the scholarship:) Wish you have a great school year in Taiwan~~
Thanks for this valuable information... I've watched videos about that because I'll move to Taiwan to study my Master this year!!
Good video, cleared some things up. I'm 35 and not in school anymore, so the housing would be more expensive, but my GF and I would be splitting the costs. We currently earn around 25,000 NT from ecommerce platforms, so there is some money to play around with.
Thank you for another interesting video :) Like it!
Thanks a lot!!👍🏻😆
Omg thank you so much this video is great :) I definitely want to try and study abroad there
Glad that it helped you!! You should give it a try:)
Hi Janet!
I remember I lived in Taiwan within 300NTD per day.
And I often cooked my meal at the kitchen of our dorm.
頂好 has a lot of fresh and cheap ingredient like meat, vegetable, rice, etc
Soooooo helpful! Thank you :) new follower!!
Thanks too!! Welcome:)
ohhh thanks this is gon help me a lot I'm just a student too and I'll be living in taiwan soon to be with my parents and I don't know alotta stuff about taiwan. again thanks for sharing😊
Wish you move to Taiwan well!!!
Please upload more ! Love the videos 💖💖
OH how sweet of you:) We will!!
It's really cheap! Here in Mexico city 14k NT is barely enough to get a decent department. Really hope to visit Taipei next year.
Hahahahahahaha I choked on my food at how you said you “also spend some money on myself” it sounded so guilty!! Lol. But going back, the basic/necessary costs, excluding tuition, for living in Taiwan is surprisingly not expensive, I think? And yeah tuition is probably the same for any good university in the region 🙂
Right!! I think living and studying in Taiwan really is relatively cheap:)
Thanks for the information
Wow this is really good, love the plushie!!
Ths👍🏻👍🏻🤭
Very well explained
Thanks for sharing.
Very comprehensive sweet potato 🥔;)

Hi, thank you for your video. I do enjoy watching it.
This video comes to me that maybe you can make an episode on how to make a living here in Taiwan if you think it is interesting to you.
Sure!!
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 Can students who do not have a Taiwan passport work legally in Taiwan or loan the tuition fees in Taiwan?
Nice video !
It should be cool if u convert the money to American Dollars next time tho, cause I didn't undertood how much a NT is
Greetings From Argentina 🇦🇷
Yah right! I was thinking of doing that but was too tired.. Next time I will!!
This video is sooo helpful ! Normally I was supposed to study in Taiwan (CCU) this month (September) but because of this virus I can’t, hopefully they won’t cancel in February once again 😖 Are you planning to do some vlog in Taiwan ? That would be soooo nice!
I'm already back in my country.. But my friends will take vlogs for me haha And I don't think schools in Taiwan will cancel once more! Wishing that this pandemic will be over soon:)
Sweet Potato Island Taiwan Oh niiiice ! Well I hope so, it also depends on the European borders ´cause I live in Belgium 😅 So it will depend on the borders but also our government, we will seeeee, I really hope I’ll be able to study in Taiwan 🙏🏼
@@LDroe-xf7lz Wish you luck!!

Hello, How much for a laptop in Taiwan? There are all the marks such as Dell, HP, Lenovo?
Informative!
Thank you!!! What a nice compliment:)
Would you recommend completing a masters degree in taiwan? I'm debating between Taiwan, Taipei more than likely, or mainland China. I'm also considering Canada but honestly would rather head to a mandarin speaking country to help with my language learning and just get out of my comfort zone!
Depends on what your goal is!! If you want to improve your language and experience different culture, Taiwan is a perfect place to do your masters degree. NTU's masters program is great!!
Thank you for your fruitful information.
But how about cost life of scholarship students; please
It depends on the scholarship. Some scholarships offer tuition+monthly stipend of 5000NT. And some others offer much more than that.
Hey! I'll arrive in Taipei in August for a 2 years master's degree at NTU. I have questions regarding working in Taiwan as a student. My first question is how to get a working permit. I've read somewhere that I'll have to wait 6 months and then ask for a permission letter from the school in order to apply for the permit, is that accurate? Secondly, is it easy to get a job? ^^
If you have all the documents ready, you can get the work permit anytime. You'll need copy of your student ID, ARC and certificate of enrollment. It takes around 10 days until work permit is issued. Getting a job depends on what kind of job you want to get. You can look for jobs at a webpage called '104 Taiwan'!
Nice informative video which would help foreigners interested about the average cost of living in Taiwan and I hope it is not late to appreciate with my comments. I am new to this channel and wondering what's the name of the person in the video :)
Hello and thank you😊This is Janet
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 oh I see. Thank you Janet 😊
Good friend
I use to get lunchboxes for 70 and sometimes could find them at 60 in Taipei.
60-70ntd lunch boxes are very nice too!! Cost effective and delicious:)
i'm wondering that the unit of total "living cost plus tuition" in the end of this video. Is it per month or per semester?
It's per semester!
How many hours does a ming chuan student spend in school every week
Hi! Can you give a rough estimate about the costs of:
-entrance prices at clubs
-using the gym on campus
-wifi cost
-airconditioning costs
Also I was wondering, whether clothes are cheap to buy in Taipei?
Thx your videos help a lot :)
1. Entrance fee is around 500 to 700NT
2. NTU gym has many options for the membership. Full year: 1350NT Half a year: 750NT Montly: 200NT Daily: 50NT
3. Wifi fee is included in the tuition(not sure about exchange students), To use the Internet in room, you can buy the internet cord which is around 100NT
4. No need to pay for the air conditioning separately. The amount of electricity that the AC spent will be deducted from your electricity card. Which means if you turn the AC on often and for a long time,, money in your electricity card will run out faster.
5. I personally think clothes in Taiwan is expensive. ZARA, H&M, UNIQLO etc.. are comparably expensive, unless it's on sale.
Hope it helped:）
Thanks for the help, I’m moving to Taiwan soon :)
@@WorldlyNomadic Wishing you good luck!
You have a great voice 😁
Ohh thank you!!!
Looking to do cooperative education in Taiwan. Is it easy to get internships in Taiwan if you are a foreigner.
It's not that hard to get an internship! Both Ashley and I(Janet) did an internship in Taiwan.
Thank you
👍🏻👍🏻
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 Can you give tell me about any Indian students who is currently studying in NTHU? I need some help about NTHU
I want to know about international student expenses in NTHU?
Nice detailed listing of cost of living, but one thing that stuck out for me is: why don't you cook yourself?
Well it's hard to cook in Shuiyuan BOT dorm because we don't have a kitchen. So we buy our own induction cooker and cook in room. But it's the best choice because the room is not big enough to cook things😥
Your entire cost of living is less than my rent in Los Angeles. Can’t wait to move there!
Awesome right?!?!?!
Yeah and you also make a lot less money in Taiwan.
Is that about $3,300 US dollars / semester ? Are you allow not to live in the dorm as a student ? Looking to save some money there.
Around 3,800USD! Actually it costs much more to live outside. You can save more by living in the dorm.
Thanks ever so much for such a detailed video. I am actually looking to apply for one of the post grad programmes at NTU and I was wondering how the allocation of dormitory works? Is it guaranteed? Do you get to choose between the single or twin rooms? I feel this would make a huge difference as renting a place near the campus seems quite expensive based on my research...
I would say dorms are guaranteed to international students. But since two years ago, all freshmen are first assigned to on-campus dorms(small dorm with 4 people in one room). You can still apply for off-campus dorms for single, double or triple rooms.
**Dorms are 100% random. So you never know what you'll get.
so cute!Hope I can meet u in NTU~
Maybe you can run into me on campus:)
Thanks for the video. Can we talk?
Do they use Mandarin in Taiwan? And traditional Chinese?
Yes!! Mandarin and traditional characters

How much scholarship on average paid in NTU? Can you help me in short out it? Because I'm looking to get enrolled in a PhD position in Geophysics at NTU. I want to know how much I can save after all expenses. Thank you in advance.
If you receive the scholarship offered by NTU OIA, it covers your tuition. And also offers stipend 6000NTD per month.
*But this scholarship isn't offered to many people. There's this one scholarship for international students in NTU.
**This is what I got when i was an undergraduate student. So the scholarship for phd might be a little different.
You can also look for MOFA or MOE scholarship.
Please inquire NTU OIA for more accurate information:)
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 So nice of you. Thank you for reply. I already got a PhD position in Poland but in NTU, this project is better than what in Poland. But I'm worrying about money that will I receive.
Very helpful video ma'am. Thanks alot for your information. Can you just clarify me that this whole estimated price is per month or per semester?
As I have been admitted into Graduate institute for my master's this year.
Waiting eagerly to join NTU
This whole thing is per semester! But if you're doing the master's degree, then the estimate might go up a bit, because the tuition is more expensive.
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 Could you tell me how long a semester is?
I have an offer for a job over there at 34k NTD. What do you think about that salary?
What kind of job is it??
Nice video.i just wanna ask a question that.
How often do people speak English.because your english is great
Thank you! It's hard to say how often, but there are many people who can speak English well:) I speak English quite often in Taiwan
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 thanks
Hi i just had a doubt......how many semesters will be there for engineering in computer science....it will be really nice if you could answer my query😊
For undergraduate? It's 4 years, 8 semesters for every student!
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 thankyou so much sis ......it means a lot 😊✨
Can the international student work in Taiwan ?
Yes you can. But you need to have the work permit first!
Hi. She pretty. Nice I mean good looking
we have to write the expenditure of money per month in a notebook, otherwise it will exceed what we predicted right 😁
Oops not per month but per day 😂
@@jimmyyang2085 hahahahaha yah the number was too big
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 😂😂😂
How come you are so pretty huh?🥰
Is University offer a hostel for living
There are dorms. But you need to pay for it
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 if students has received fully funded scholarship form University, will the hostel to pay the fees?
@@narayanimate2796 I think scholarship only offers you monthly stipend and tuition. You can pay your dorm with monthly stipend
Is Taiwan good for mbbs?
@@narayanimate2796 Probably! But unfortunately NTU doesn't accept any international students for medical school.(There are some other schools that do accpet foreigners like Taipei Medical University) Also international students who want to study medicine in Taiwan need to be good at Mandarin because classes will be in that language.
So cute. Are you from the U.S. I've been thinking of where I want to spend my retirement.
Hello!! This is such a late reply haha I'm not from the US!
100,000 per year right?
That's only the tuition. Only the tuition is around 10,000-12,000 for a year
@@sweetpotatoislandtaiwan7411 In total all of them are 100.000 per year right?
hi girls... how are you
Indians has soft corner for Taiwan....but when I heard about Racist response from Taiwan for 1.5 billion Indian people then I think we are wrong about them 😡😡
delicious pientang
Right!! They are so good
that’s some expensive food you’re eating
hahaha sometimes I do! But not always
Don't forget it's in NTD, not ametican dollars
Are all taiwanese girls as pretty as like you....and do they date with foreigner
1:48 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,$300 to $700? fuck that...
This is all in Taiwan's local currency, New Taiwan Dollars. $300 NTD is $10.71 USD, and $700 NTD is $25.02 USD.
