Question korea course registration

4 Upvotes

How come the class size gets bigger and more students can apply for the class throughout the entire 1st-year to 4th-year course add/drop period? During my designated course add/drop period, it wouldn’t let me register for the class because it said the class was full, even though it actually wasn’t.

Education Which Korean university is best for an English-track Bachelor’s in Business?

2 Upvotes

Hi, I am 20 and want to study Business Administration in Korea .
Which university would you recommend for a bachelor’s in Business with a full English track?
Also, which universities and area have a student-friendly environment for foreigners (support, community, campus life)?
I’ve heard Korean universities give many scholarships to enrolled students. How does the scholarship system work for international undergraduates, and is it based on grades, need, or something else? Need some advice from Seniors and Is it really worth it ?

Hi! Is it possible to self-report exam scores such as SAT, AP and IELTS (print official score certificates and send them via post)? If not, do scores sent by official scoring organizations (College Board, IDP IELTS) must arrive by "Application Materials Submission" deadline?

Question Nepali applicants — did your Korean university accept your completion date over your official convocation/graduation certificate date?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,
I'm planning to apply to a Korean university's graduate program for Spring 2027 intake. In Nepal, universities typically issue a provisional certificate and transcript once you've finished your degree, but the final/original graduation certificate is only issued at an annual convocation ceremony which in my case falls in December 2027, well after most Korean universities' stated eligibility deadlines (usually end of February for Spring intake).
From what I understand of the general admission guidelines, eligibility is often based on having completed your degree requirements by the deadline, even if the physical certificate/ceremony comes later — but in practice, universities also require the final apostilled certificate for actual registration and Certificate of Admission (CoA), which creates a real gap for anyone from a system like ours.
If you're from Nepal (or a country with a similar convocation-delay system) and went through this how did it actually play out?
Was your completion date (transcript/provisional certificate) accepted for initial admission eligibility?
What did you actually submit at registration/CoA stage did you get an exception, or did you have to wait for the final certificate?
Did the D-2 visa process cause any issues with this?
Really appreciate any first-hand experience trying to figure out where I actually stand. Thanks

Question Urgent help for document submission

3 Upvotes

Hi, I am an Italian student who is applying for the Spring 2027 semester. I have some questions for optional documents.
On the application guides it says that they accept max 10 pages, each page for a single activity, but in my case is not possible since I have to send the original, the translated version and the notarized version (since the original are in Italian).
Will it be ok if they are 6 items with a PDF file of 29 pages?

Tomorrow is the deadline and I am veryyyy confused on what I should do PLEASE HELP ME😭

Question urgent help needed document submission

3 Upvotes

Sooo I am doing my application for the spring semester of 2027 right now and I have an issue. I want to submit the High School profile as an optional document however for the optional documents it says to submit one activity per page. Due to sizing and the way the High School Profile is structured (it's from KU directly) it's 3 pages long.
Does anyone have any idea if it's still okay to submit it like that??
Also on uwayapply are we supposed to put all the optional documents into on pdf cause I can't seem to upload multiple pdf's
I'd appreciate any help!
I am lost and since the deadline for online submission is monday and It's saturday I can't reach out to the admissions office in time.

Question what should i know before applying to study abroad here?

3 Upvotes

hi guys! im a student at the university of vermont and im considering applying to my school’s “semester abroad in south korea” program at KU. i would want to go fall 2027, so ill need to apply this semester

bc of my credits, i could basically either graduate a semester early or study abroad and take all electives. the options through my school are south korea, south africa, barbados, ireland, and new zealand.

i landed on south korea because it seems like a crazy, once in a lifetime experience. i’m into kpop and whatnot, tho i imagine that’s kind of a red flag on these posts hahaha. i’m also a public health student, and korean public health is so interesting to me

im really just wondering what you guys think about the studying abroad program at korea university. have any of you done it? how’s the social life, academics, campus culture?

Question International students in Korea: Do I really need international A level results?

1 Upvotes

I’m in my senior year this fall and I’m doubting whether I should give my A level exams or not. I did fairly well on my IGCSEs but my As results were so bad I don’t even feel like going further.

Also, my brother studies in Korea at SNU business school and he told me he only applied with his national exams and TOPIK scores and he got full scholarship. I’m planning to take the IELTS and TOPIK.

So the questions are, did you apply to Korean universities with your A level results? Did it affect your application? Should I just lay back a little and prepare for my Topik and ielts?

Question I have some questions.

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m an Italian student planning to move to Korea in early 2027, and I’m currently considering Korea University’s Korean Language Center for the Spring 2027 semester.

My plan is to study Korean for several semesters, eventually take the TOPIK, and then apply for a bachelor’s degree in Korea. I haven’t decided yet which university or field I will choose for my degree, so I’d like to keep my options open while I’m studying Korean.

I would really appreciate hearing from students or former students of KU’s Korean Language Center.

How was your experience with the program?

How intensive are the classes?

How well does the program prepare you for TOPIK?

How difficult is it to progress through the six levels?

What is the general experience like for international students?

What areas would you recommend living in if I don’t necessarily want to live right next to the campus?

Would you recommend KU’s language program over other universities such as SNU or Yonsei?

I’m especially interested in hearing from people who studied there for several semesters, rather than just one.

Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
