Starting in 2018, following the ratification of MoE schooling assistance measures and subsidies, we had developed a sound schooling assistance mechanism to support economically disadvantaged students. In 2022, this mechanism was expanded to encompass eight major dimensions to boost the learning capacity of economically disadvantaged students.
We offer our students various grants and scholarships to encourage diversified learning and foster professional competence and an international outlook. The CSU Financial Aid & Subsidy Implementation Guidelines for Underprivileged Students have been amended in accordance with the MoE University/College Financial Aid Program for Underprivileged Students. Subsidies for student groups include grants, living stipends, emergency relief grants, and accommodation discounts. In addition, we autonomously appropriate work-study grants to enable enrolled students to combine pursuit of their studies with part-time employment in a worry-free manner.

With a view to enabling disabled students to pursue their studies in a worry-free manner, we established a CSU Resource Classroom in 2000, which was renamed to CSU Concern & Guidance Center in 2015 with “A Home Away from Home” as the core imagery. The goal is to enable disabled students with the help of CSU students and faculty members to engage in joyful learning, develop an autonomous and independent spirit, and make valuable contributions to society after graduation.
In 2021, the center organized an Experimental Dream Workshop to create an exclusive learning platform for special education students. This workshop features a space for the sale of snacks such as grilled toasts, waffles, and egg waffles jointly managed by the students. In this process, they learn how to manufacture products and engage in interpersonal interactions and community exchanges, which boosts their self-confidence. The proceeds from these sales are donated to underprivileged groups. In 2022, the center held a Presentation of Achievements of the “Make Dreams Come True” Program. Five special disabled students were commended to visit 4 economically disadvantaged families and 30 elderly individuals living alone in the Niaosong District and handing over a donation of NT$ 32,000 under the guidance of CSU instructors.
In academic year 2016, we established an Indigenous Student Resource Center with the goal of enhancing basic learning capacities, stabilizing students’ pursuit of their studies, and boosting individual and group development by embracing the three principles of respect, diversity, and sharing.
