TAIPEI, Taiwan -- Earlier this month, individual university application results were released, showing the largest ever gap between the number of openings and successful applicants. Toko University had offered admission to 118 applicants nationwide, but only secured 20 new recruits. One place was even left empty in the generally full National Taiwan University's medical department, which has never seen any vacancies in the past.
To quote Nicole Lee, head of the Ministry of Education's Department of Higher Education, the record-breaking statistics tell us one thing for sure — the impact of low birthrates has begun to hit higher education.
