Masters program

Hi there, I wanna continue mah master program here in taiwan but idk if i am eligible as international student to apply for master program or not. Because i am married to taiwanese guy and I think i have household registration that says I can’t apply as international student. I am still confused, i am still learning 中文 但是 I don’t think it’s enough. I would appreciate any help or 可以給我any website that i can contact for this problem. 謝謝。thank you

Iiuc, you can apply as a non local student, even if you did naturalization and you are a Taiwanese citizen now. I think schools international students office, or admission office may help you.

If you have not done naturalization yet and just your marriage is registered into your spouse’s household registration, you are still a foreigner, so there may be no complication to apply as an international student.

Wait Post what?

Your degree.

if you have or can get your degree from your school, you can send it to TECO by snail mail (post office) with fee and returning envelope, to get it authenticated. You could call to TECO for details.

Calling TECO is the first thing to do. The procedure is probably country specific. It’s a long time since I had to do something similar, but I think I had to send the document to the authentication stamping place in London who then forwarded it through to TECO.

Ideally, if the OP has friends/family in her home country it would be better to send the degree to them and get them to have it stamped.
