This study explores the possibility of encouraging the expansion of private colleges and universities in Taiwan to relieve the excess demand for higher education. Related issues are also examined: quality of students after expansion, quality assurance of higher education institutions, tuition policy, fundraising policy, and the role of the Ministry of Education (MOE) in tertiary education.

520 $a This study explores the possibility of encouraging the expansion of private colleges and universities in Taiwan to relieve the excess demand for higher education. Related issues are also examined: quality of students after expansion, quality assurance of higher education institutions, tuition policy, fundraising policy, and the role of the Ministry of Education (MOE) in tertiary education.
520 $a As in many Confucian societies, the Taiwanese people highly appreciate the value of a college diploma. Higher education has thus been in great demand, which becomes particularly difficult for policymakers to ignore after the country's unprecedented political and economic liberalization in the mid-1980s. Since then, Taiwan has experienced a phenomenal growth in 4-year colleges and universities. Some problems such as insufficient public funding, however, soon followed the expansion.
520 $a The possibility of expanding private higher education subsequently emerged. The private sector, nevertheless, has its own problems: insufficient revenues; lack of academic autonomy to realize unique educational philosophy; inability to freely recruit students; rigid controls of the MOE, etc. These problems have put private colleges and universities in a position of inferior status in relation to their public counterparts.
520 $a The purposes of this study are the following: (1) Explore the feasibility of encouraging private tertiary education expansion in response to the high social demand. (2) Examine the impact of the government's regulated mechanism for tertiary education on 4-year colleges and universities, particularly for the private sector. (3) Search for ways of enhancing the quality of higher education, especially for the private sector. (4) Analyze the effect of the current financing policies on tertiary education, particularly the private sector. (5) Make policy recommendations based on the analysis of the study.
520 $a The methodology of qualitative analysis has been adopted in this study. In-depth interviews with 58 elite college administrators (presidents and deans of academic affairs, general affairs, and student affairs) in Taiwan were conducted to acquire insights regarding policies and practices in the country's higher education system. Findings and policy implications in respect of the development of Taiwanese higher education are presented. Policy recommendations are made for the MOE and college administrators, respectively.
