備註：
- This fund was expanded from the "Book Fund of the Graduate Institute of English Language and Literature." Established by a group of dedicated alumni, it aimed to help graduate students complete their MA theses. A graduate student working on his/her thesis can apply for the book budget provided by the school library to purchase books which cannot be found in the libraries on campus. The Book Fund helped cover the purchase expenses in case the book budget was insufficient.
When the quota for the MOE MA scholarship is only one (1), the top-ranked student in both the first and second year are eligible to submit a statement of needs to the Scholarship Committee, which will decide which of the two students will receive the MOE scholarship. The other student will be awarded the NT$10,000 Department Scholarship. (Passed by the 2nd Faculty Meeting, Spring 2006. Minutes needed to confirm.)
NT$10,000 each will be awarded to financially needy volunteers participating in the English Teaching Project for Chang Fu Elementary School every academic year. Qualified students must file an application when the scholarship is announced each year. Quota and recipient(s) will be decided by the Scholarship Committee after reviewing the application materials. (Passed by the 1st Faculty Meeting, Fall 2006)
