Admissions policy for the department of music
Our department accepts students who major in piano, electone, voice, violin, viola, cello, double bass, flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, saxophone, trumpet, French horn, trombone, euphonium, tuba, percussion, composition, music therapy, and conducting (master's program only). Applicants must have a sufficient aptitude in Mandarin Chinese to study, and should have solid musical training in their major instrument and music theory.
Undergraduate students are normally admitted to Tunghai University’s Music Department either by applying directly to the school (https://exam2.thu.edu.tw/EXAM/indextt.jsp) or through the government sponsored Joint Entrance Examination system. Undergraduate students who meet the necessary requirements may apply to the department as transfer students from other institutions and take an entrance examination given in July of each year.
For students applying to the master’s degree program, application is made directly to the school. The examination usually takes place in either March or April for the coming academic year which begins in September.
Non-Taiwanese students must apply through Taiwan’s University Entrance Committee for Overseas Chinese Students (http://www.overseas.ncnu.edu.tw/) or apply directly to the school.
