First, the advantages of studying abroad
The entry threshold is relatively low.
Graduate schools in South Korea do not have high requirements for the admission of international students. You only need to have a bachelor's degree in China and pass a simple entrance examination and interview. Moreover, for international students, if they have prescribed English scores, they can replace Korean scores as language scores for admission.
High education level
South Korea has a high level of education and a wide range of school majors. Students are free to choose their own major. Moreover, Korea has world-renowned institutions of higher learning with a wide range of majors. It is famous for paying attention to applied disciplines, such as semiconductors, shipbuilding, textiles, household appliances and automobile manufacturing. Computer applications, economics and business disciplines are absolutely first-class in Asia.
Language advantages of ethnic minorities
Although the official language of Korea is Korean, English is widely used in Korea, especially in various professional fields. Students not only don't have to give up learning English, but also can learn a new small language, which increases their advantages for future employment.
The deposit is low and the application procedure is fast.
Applying for studying in Korea has low security, simple materials and quick procedures. Students can go to Korea to study in a short time, without worrying about delaying time.
Broad employment prospects
With the increasing investment of Korean enterprises in China, a large number of China students who are familiar with China's national conditions, understand Korean culture and master Korean are needed.
Second, time.
When applying for graduate and undergraduate studies in Korea, studying abroad and studying in Korea, many students can't grasp the time when applying for schools. Teacher Zhang will analyze why now is the best time to apply.
In China, September is the new term; in South Korea, it is March and September. You can also apply for admission to the new semester. Students can choose their own suitable time to enter school. If you want to know about Korean education in advance, you can apply for admission in March, especially for freshmen. First, because of the so-called "do as the Romans do", you can better feel the life of studying in Korean universities.
Just like applying for a specialized course, applying for a specialized course should be prepared in advance, but it is much earlier than applying for a specialized course. Registration and application usually start 7-8 months in advance. In other words, if you want to apply for admission in March, you need to apply in June-August of the previous year (the specific time varies from school to school every year). This time period has basically entered the deadline, so the application materials should be prepared earlier, at least before August.
When enrolling students for specialized courses in Korean universities, well-known schools generally have an earlier deadline. Students should pay attention to the time of the school they want to apply for and the relevant information release section as soon as possible when registering and applying. In addition, to be on the safe side, it is recommended to prepare one or two sets of materials. First, one or two schools can be enrolled at the same time. In addition, in case the applicant school is not accepted, the materials will not be returned, so as not to delay the application of other schools. Therefore, it is most important to grasp the time when applying for a university. You must avoid the kind of time you want to come. I don't know if the school is full, not necessarily according to the deadline.
Third, the interview
Korean universities pay more attention to the following issues: First, language issues, including Korean and English. How is your Korean performance? You will be asked to introduce yourself in Korean. Then, English scores are required for majors in individual universities, but you don't have to have hard TOEFL or IELTS scores. The professor will ask you questions about English, and then he will talk to you in English, or find an English article for you to read, and judge your English level by your performance. Whether it is a graduate interview or an undergraduate interview, the requirements for Korean are very high. Relatively speaking, under the same conditions, students who have passed CET-4, CET-6 or CET-5 have a very high admission probability.
Second is the family situation. It can be said that Korean universities pay special attention to family situation, parents' work and income when enrolling undergraduate students. Because in the impression of Koreans, students with excellent family conditions are more conducive to study, and the quality of their parents is relatively high. Relatively speaking, students' personal quality will be higher. This tendency is particularly evident in interviews at Korean universities.
Learning planning. Interviewing professors usually ask you what major you want to study, how much you know about this major, and how you plan to learn it well in the future. Even some professors will ask, why did you choose this university instead of other universities for the same major? It depends on your own adaptability. This is especially important for students who apply for Korean graduate students, and they need to be fully prepared.
I will talk about the interview of Korean art students in particular. If you have a suit, please dress formally, such as a suit, which represents your respect for professors and exams.

Educational requirements:
Domestic high school students, including technical secondary school and vocational high school students with the same academic qualifications, apply for studying in Korea in the same process. They all apply for language colleges first, and then choose undergraduate colleges and majors after learning the language to a certain extent. To apply for an undergraduate course, you must provide a diploma.
Language requirements:
One advantage of studying in Korea is that you don't need to have a foundation in Korean. Every university has its own language school. Students do not need to provide Korean scores when applying. They can start from a zero-based language school. General language schools have 4-6 semesters a year, and students have 4 admission opportunities.
At present, students who have completed the college entrance examination still have the opportunity to apply for admission in September. Some language colleges have not yet closed their applications and can continue to submit materials.
Application materials:
1. Passport
2.2-inch photo with blue letters on white background.
3. High school diploma certification
4. Bank deposit certificate
5. Copy of household registration book

1. How much is the most suitable certificate for studying abroad in Korea?
Over the years, many Korean universities have required students to submit a deposit of 1 10,000 US dollars or 654.38+10,000 RMB as capital guarantee.
There are many formal higher education institutions accredited by China government, among which there are many top 100 in the world, and private universities with better education level than national universities abound.
Second, the Korean visa
Korean universities issue admission permits through internal audit, but it doesn't mean that issuing admission permits equals 65,438+000% visas, but only through the audit of Korean consulates or exit-entry offices can they finally get visas.
Three, "zero" language students how to stay in South Korea
Korean universities don't need any language scores, because Korean universities have Korean schools. Even if you don't have a foundation in Korean, you can study language courses in Korean Language School for one year, then pass the final language exam, and then upgrade to undergraduate course through interview and submission of application materials.
Fourth, how to grasp the relationship between the final education and the application time limit.
Generally, Korean universities require international students to apply for no more than two years from the final degree graduation, and the longest graduation time for undergraduates is no more than three years. In particular, Korean universities will raise the entry threshold in the future, and it is recommended that students with high school education apply to study in Korea within one year after graduation.
How do students from five or three schools study in Korea?
The so-called three-school students, that is, students from secondary schools, vocational high schools and technical schools, basically tend to accept only students with general education since 2006. Very few institutions that accept three-school students have high economic requirements for students, or visas cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore, in view of this situation, it is suggested that students from three schools should apply for directly attending a three-year junior college when studying in Korea, and then directly attend the third grade in Korean undergraduate colleges after obtaining a junior college degree.
Six, the nature of the school has nothing to do with the quality of teaching.
South Korea's education development is dominated by private universities, which is completely different from China's. 98% universities in South Korea are private universities established by consortia, and they are official higher education institutions certified by the governments of South Korea and China. Many universities are among the top 100 universities in the world, and their education level is better than that of national universities.
