The American Institute in Taiwan will sponsor an EducationUSA booth at the 2008 AIEF Spring American Education Fair in Taipei, Kaohsiung and Taichung. EducationUSA Advisors will be available to meet with potential students and parents about opportunities for study in the USA.

EducationUSA is global network of educational advising centers which actively promote United States higher education by offering accurate, comprehensive, objective and timely information about educational opportunities in the United States.

In Taiwan, there are two EducationUSA centers which provide Taiwan students and their parents with information on how to make a study plan, choose a U.S. school, find financial aid, apply for admission, obtain a U.S. student visa, and prepare for departure.  Thousands of students interested in studying in the U.S. got started on this path at one of Taiwan's EducationUSA Advising Centers.  For more information about EducationUSA Advising Centers, programs and free group sessions, please log on to http://www.EducationUSA.org.tw.

Nicholas Papp, Director of AIT's American Cultural Center, oversees the EducationUSA program in Taiwan "We look forward to seeing and talking with Taiwan students at the American Education Fair," Papp said.  "The U.S. remains the top choice for overseas study in Taiwan. Our doors are open, and we warmly welcome you to join the nearly 30,000 Taiwan students who are realizing their dreams by studying in the USA."

Advisors from Taiwan's EducationUSA centers will be available to meet students at the 2008 AIEF Spring American Education Fair events in Taipei on March 23 and 24 at the Howard Plaza Hotel; in Kaohsiung on March 25 at the Grand Hi-Lai Hotel; and in Taichung on March 26 at the Evergreen Laurel Hotel.
