Entry requirements
The D-4 checklist for countries other than China includes the Institute's application form, two photos, passport copy, notarised final-school certificate and bank evidence of at least KRW 10 million. Vietnam has a separate note requiring a locally issued study-funds deposit or bank-balance certificate, at least KRW 10 million and held for at least three months; confirm the acceptable issuing institution with the Institute. China has its own checklist and financial-proof rules, including a fixed deposit held for at least six months; do not use the non-China checklist for Chinese applicants. For overseas applicants who need D-4 support, the page generally requires registration for two semesters (six months), with a different four-semester rule for Mongolia; applicants who already hold a valid visa may apply for one semester. Confirm the current checklist for your nationality and visa situation.
