The User ID is your NTU student ID number with the first letter in lowercase.
The default password is an “a” plus your date of birth. (For example, if you were born on January 22, your password would be a0122.)
Resident Visa and Alien Resident Certificate (ARC)
Resident Visa
Visa is a required document for entering Taiwan. We recommend you to apply for Resident Visa because it is also a required document when you apply for Alien Resident Certificate (ARC) later on. Even you are from a visa-free country, we still recommend you to apply for Resident Visa in advance. Otherwise, you may need to leave the country or go through other formalities to apply for ARC.
For more information： Resident Visa
Alien Resident Certificate (ARC)
The Alien Resident Certificate (ARC) serves as the ID card that proves your resident status in Taiwan. It is a very important document and we advise you to take good care of it and pay attention to its expiration time.
For more information： Alien Resident Certificate (ARC)

If you have had already applied for one, we hope you have a good time with your volunteer; if you have not and you are willing to get one, please refer to Ms. Lily Hsu at lilyhsup87@ntu.edu.tw.
NTU International Students Facebook Group
In order to provide a more effective service, we created a Facebook group, NTU International Students.
The Facebook group welcome all international students including degree students, exchange students, and visiting students at NTU. Please send a request to our group so we can add you.
In this group, OIA will post useful information about activities on campus as well as any relevant announcements that you may need to know. The group also functions as a community for international students to interact, share, and chat with one another.
We hope that you will find the group useful!
