KyrianNational Yang Ming Chiao Tung University → NYCU · Primavera 2025“The Guangfu campus (the Hsinchu's one) is the best regarding NYCU'S campus.
It's big and has a lot of beautiful green space and even a small lake.
The Taipei one (yangming campus), from what I've heard, is pretty small and even a bit far from the interesting points.
Someone in my school joined the Boai campus and was very disappointed in how there was nothing to do in this specific campus.
I've never been to both, but I can still say Guangfu is a big campus and probably the best one amongst the others.
Now, registering for the school wasn't difficult since it has a partnership with my school, but choosing the classes was a nightmare.
There's 2 website, the one where you can view all the classes and prepare some kind of potential schedule, and the actual website where you choose your classes.
I hated the 2nd website. If you found classes on the 1st, you had to look through a lot of different tags to finally find them again on the real website, only to see maybe you can't access the course, or maybe it's conflicting with another course.
That was a lot of stress, but the administration answered quickly all my questions so I was able to sort it out in the end. It also helped in how there were 3 periods in which you could choose your classes, not just one. So if you weren't able to choose your classes on the 1st, you still had 2 other chances.
If I had to go to Taïwan for an exchange again, I would like to try something new, but apart from that, I would definitely pick NYCU again.”
📍 In the Guangfu campus, directly above a Family Mart, 7/11, and in front of the building where I had most of my classes. The others classes were just a few minutes away.
