Q: Guidelines for Credit Transfer (Including TOCFL for International Students)
According to the "National Tsing Hua University Credit Transfer Regulations for Students of the International Master’s/Doctoral Program (IPHD/IMS)":
Credits applied for transfer must be from "Master's or Doctoral level courses not counted toward the graduation requirements of the original university" and with a "grade of 70 or above." (A certificate from the original university proving that the credits were not counted toward graduation is required).
Non-program and non-NTHU courses: A maximum of 6 credits may be transferred.
Program courses (limited to course codes IPhD/IMS): Limited to courses taken within 5 years prior to admission; a maximum of 4 courses or 12 credits may be transferred.
The total number of transferred credits is capped at 12 credits.
Reminder: You may still submit a credit transfer application even if you apply for suspension this semester; the two do not conflict.
*A certificate from the original university proving the credits were "not counted toward graduation" is required. *One year of overseas Mandarin internship (Master’s program) can be transferred for credit. (For inquiries regarding Mandarin internships, please contact Mr. Hsieh).
