ICLP Student Guide:

On behalf of National Taiwan University, the ICLP staff, and the people of Taiwan, "Welcome to Taipei!" The goal of this section is to provide students with information regarding living and studying in Taiwan. The ICLP staff does its best to ensure that every student enjoys a fruitful and fascinating learning experience at ICLP.   Although we aim to keep the content of this site complete and up to date, students often have questions or issues that are not addressed on this website. In an effort to continuously improve the content of the Student Guide and other areas of our website, ICLP welcomes student's comments and suggestions. Please email us and let us know how we are doing and how we can make this site even better in the future. Please include your full name and contact information in the content of the email.

Taiwan Guidebooks and Online Information:

ICLP recommends that students purchase a guidebook and keep it with them in Taiwan for reference. Students who take the time to browse through a guidebook or look over some on-line information regarding Taiwan before coming to ICLP often find that their move to Taipei and subsequent adjustment to life in Taiwan goes much more smoothly. Of course, the ICLP staff is also here to help with any questions or concerns that students may have.

The following is a list of some published titles and websites that students may find useful and interesting:

Lonely Planet and Rough Guide are two popular publishers of travel guidebooks. These are the links to their online web resources. The books themselves can also be purchased from these sites or from Amazon.com.

Lonely Planet Website: Taiwan

Rough Guide: Taiwan

Culture Shock: Taiwan-2 Titles

The following two websites are good resources for finding information before coming to Taiwan, as well as useful tools for students already attending ICLP:
