No more Mr. Nice Guy for “Overseas Compatriots”.
[quote]The Ministry of Education has canceled the one-year grace period allowing “overseas compatriot students” to stay in the country for a year after graduation, the ministry’s Overseas Compatriot Educational Committee said yesterday.
Overseas compatriot students refer to people of Chinese ethnicity who were born and lived overseas, or to Taiwanese nationals who had resided overseas for more than six consecutive years until their return to Taiwan for studies.
…
The amendment also states that these students cannot apply for residency in Taiwan unless they have worked in their country of residence for at least two years.
The changes, however, now allow overseas compatriot students to apply directly for graduate studies in Taiwan after finishing college, dropping the requirement that they have to leave Taiwan for at least two years.
The amendment also bans overseas compatriots from applying for study in Taiwan’s cram schools, open universities or any other programs that are only taught on weekends or holidays.
