Entry requirements

A bachelor’s degree is required; undergraduate majors may be in any field. Meet the international-admission nationality or full-overseas-education category. The Spring 2027 guide requires graduation and receipt of the prior diploma and degree by January, at least two months before entry. Submit valid TOEFL, IELTS, TOEIC or NEW TEPS results unless a stated exemption applies; there is no minimum admission score. Sole-English-medium graduates need an official university letter. Test validity and the guide’s two-year reference date require checking against your report. Submit the essay (maximum two pages), academic records, nationality and family-relationship evidence and required translations/authentication. Chinese applicants need both Hukou and a family-relationship certificate; graduates of universities in China also need the stated CHSI degree-verification report. One recommendation letter is optional; no more than one may be submitted. Recommendations must arrive during the application period and follow the sealed-mail or direct institutional-email rules. The applicant must complete the portal personally. Accepted-student originals, financial proof and tuition payment are later CoA requirements, separate from admission application uploads.

Course fees

The Spring 2027 international-admission guide lists an application fee of KRW 90,000 OR USD 90, or an equivalent amount. These are alternative payment amounts, not charges to add together. Transfer charges are paid by the applicant; the guide states that the application fee is non-refundable. Complete payment by the application deadline and allow the recommended two-day transfer margin. Tuition, other charges and payment dates require separate confirmation; bank-balance evidence is not a fee.

Intake

Spring 2027: online applications and required scans are due during 20–30 October 2026. The portal opens at 10:00 KST on 20 October; an exact closing hour and closing timezone are not stated. English-language interviews are scheduled for 28 November, with an online option for applicants outside Korea. Classes begin on 2 March 2027. Admission and available places require university confirmation. Accepted students have a separate originals deadline, to be announced with final results.
