South Korea's Ministry of Education has issued documents on the adjustment of enrollment policies to major universities in South Korea and made them public. Experts remind international students to pay attention to studying in Korea, and tuition fees can be reduced if Korean reaches the standard.

The adjustment of the New Deal's enrollment policy for international students is mainly reflected in the following aspects: by reviewing the applicant's materials, whether the applicant is qualified or not is determined according to the applicant's learning ability and economic ability; The requirements for Korean are reduced: in the autumn of 201/kloc-0, students who have passed at least TOPIK (Korean proficiency test) level 4 will submit TOPIK level 3 certificates when applying for admission, and passing TOPIK level 4 English scores before graduation will become an important review standard, with TOEFL scores of 550 (80 for new TOEFL scores) and IELTS scores of 5.5. In addition, the document also advocates that universities should formulate enrollment rules for foreign students in order to choose better foreign students. Moreover, if the applicant's TOPIK grade 3 is not above the basic requirements (TOPIK grade 3 or above), in this case, the applicant will not receive the tuition fee reduction scholarship. Finally, universities are prohibited from recruiting foreign students through informal network channels.

According to the above policies, overseas experts give the following suggestions to international students:

While paying attention to Korean learning, we should also strengthen English learning. First of all, it is undoubtedly great news for China students who have already studied Korean courses in Korea to lower their requirements for Korean scores. It can not only shorten the time of language learning, but also make it a reality to enter the ideal university as soon as possible and reduce the financial burden of their families. Similarly, students who already have the level of Korean in China can also apply directly to Korean universities or colleges in China by passing the TOPIK Test Level 3, which is not difficult. However, the adjustment of this policy follows the traditional style of the Korean Ministry of Education, that is, loose English, which requires strict English scores, has also been put on the agenda. But this is closely related to the teaching nature of Korean universities. In addition to GSIS courses, all courses in Korean universities or colleges are taught in Korean+English, and even students of individual majors are required to have a considerable English level.

To sum up, it can be seen from this policy that South Korea is making every effort to attract foreign students to study in South Korea. Compared with the previous policy adjustments in visa, service system for international students in Korea, medical insurance, part-time job, etc., we pay more attention to the adjustment of admission standards for international students. It is believed that there will be new actions to attract more foreign students this year and next, so as to realize the plan of reaching 65438+ million foreign students in 20 12.

The issue of granting scholarships at admission. According to the new policy, if the applicant obtains Grade 3 in the TOPIK exam and meets the minimum Korean standard for admission, but not higher than the minimum requirement, the tuition fee remission scholarship will not be awarded. This is really a big burden for most Korean students' families. However, according to the relevant teachers, the tuition fee remission scholarship did not exist all the time when students entered school, nor was it given after the first application failed. Scholarships are still linked to students' academic performance. For example, students who did not reach the TOPIK level 3 or above when applying for admission can also get tuition fee reduction scholarships through subsequent efforts. However, it will be a trend to get a scholarship after entering school and study in Korea later. Similarly, as mentioned above, shortening the time of language learning stage is also very cost-effective in terms of time and economic cost.
