Taiwanese students tended to congregate near China's coastal regions, around Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Fujian, and Guangdong. The most popular area of study was traditional Chinese medicine, followed by law and politics, trade, and management. Fields like humanities, religion, and traditional arts were at the bottom of the list.
台生多集中在北京、天津、江蘇、福建及廣東等沿海地區；所學以中醫藥最多，其次為法政、貿易及管理等領域，最後才是文史哲、宗教、傳統藝術等領域。
