SDG 11.4.5 Affordable housing for students

1. There are seven dormitory buildings on campus that can accommodate up to 3,300 students. All buildings are access-controlled to maintain a safe living environment—students have to tap their cards to enter.

(1) A total of 79% of the rooms are economical three- to four-person shared rooms; 21% are two- or four-person single rooms. Rooms range from 16–29 square meters, with windows for ventilation. Each building includes a lounge and a reading room equipped with internet, air-conditioning, washing machines, dryers, vending machines, etc.

(2) Each building has nighttime dormitory counselors and self-governing student cadres to help students handle their issues.

(3) The fee per semester is NTD$5,930–9,230 for a shared room; NTD$15,000 for a four-person suite (including rooms for students with disabilities); and NTD$30,000 for a two-person suite. The cost of a shared room on campus is approximately 50% lower than that in the local market, while the fee for suites is determined based on the local market price, as shown in Table 1.

5. Off-Campus Housing Subsidy

(1) To further assist financially disadvantaged students, it is ensured that government and school subsidies are provided to students from families with household income in the lower 40% or who qualify as low-income or low-middle-income households, as well as financially disadvantaged students. Each eligible student may receive a subsidy ranging from NTD$2,400 to NTD$3,600 per month, depending on the location of their rented residence. The subsidy also covers the rental of six months per semester; specifically, August to the next January for the first semester and February to July for the second semester. In 2023, a total of 77 students received the subsidy, amounting to NTD$1,078,520. The Comparison of Off-campus Housing Rental Subsidies for 2022 and 2023 is shown in Figure 4.
