In response to the sub-replacement fertility and derived admissions problem, national universities which located in Central Taiwan proposed the establishment of "National University System of Taiwan" (NUST), in order to integrate academic resources, achieving higher competitiveness for each school. The NUST plans joint enrollment in future, like University System of Taiwan (UST) and Taiwan Comprehensive University System (TCUS), meanwhile allowed students inter-collegiate course taking, only if registration on one of the member school. [ 5]
All eleven NUST schools achieved high registration rate in 2021 academic year, nearly equivalent to approved quota by MOE.
