1. How do college students apply for Korean undergraduate courses?
Applicants for undergraduate admission in Korea should be well aware of the need to submit Korean scores, so if they don't have a foundation in Korean, they can go to the Korean Language Institute to study Korean first. According to your personal situation, within one year to one and a half years, you can apply for undergraduate admission with Grade 4 or above. If you have Korean scores, you can directly apply for sophomore placement, but not all Korean universities have sophomores. At present, the schools that can accept the placement of sophomores are Central University, Hony University in dongguk university, Renhe University, National University and Tankou University. It should be noted that if applying for sophomore placement, domestic undergraduate colleges need to complete formal courses for more than two semesters (1 year) and obtain the minimum graduation credit of 1/4 (four-year system).
If you don't have a foundation in Korean and don't want to go to a Korean college, there is another way. You can continue to learn Korean when you are a sophomore in China, so that you can apply for placement in junior year if you get Korean scores after sophomore year. Although there are not many schools that accept placement in sophomore year, most Korean schools (except Seoul National University) can accept placement in junior year. In the third year of transfer, you need to complete more than 4 semesters (2 years) of formal courses and get 1/2(4-year system) with the lowest graduation credit. No matter whether you are a sophomore or a junior, you need to convert credits. It is more difficult to apply for interdisciplinary application, but the conversion of professional credits is not dominant. O (╥ ╥) o If you want to praise the students who have applied for cross-majors, senior sister advises you to think twice, because cross-majors are not necessarily better in Korea than in China. It is also a good choice to apply for Korean graduate students after graduation.
Second, the application time for undergraduate study in Korea
11~ 65438+February: Start preparing basic materials.
It takes about 2 weeks to prepare basic materials, including personal education, family account book, kinship, property certificate, etc.
65438+ 10 ~ February: Spring Festival holiday
The situation in China is different from that in South Korea. China has a long annual holiday. During this period, both official business and materials will stagnate, so students who enter school in September must start preparing early ~
March ~ April: Start to prepare complete materials.
Individual schools have completed their applications, and most schools have applied for and started to prepare notarized authentication materials, paperwork and interview preparation. All qualifications for studying in Korea must be certified by the education department or notarized by the consul before they can be submitted, which takes about 1 month.
March to May: Online application and application time of different schools are different, so the cycle is longer. However, when each school starts to apply, it will probably leave 1~2 weeks for students to apply for registration, download school forms and notarized documents and materials, and send them to the China Admissions Office of Korea University by mail or in person.
May ~ June: Get the admission notice, start paying tuition fees, and apply for a dormitory.
After college admission, there are many subsequent things, including paying tuition fees, applying for dormitory, applying for student number, applying for courses, applying for admission permission, making up language scores/diplomas/degree certificates, etc. So Korean universities will start applying so early because they have to reserve a lot of time for students to apply ~
July ~ August: get the standard admission permit, apply for a visa, and go!
Korea is a little different from other countries. After receiving the OFFER from Korean University, you have to pay the tuition fee first, and then the school will issue a standard admission permit and submit a visa to the consulate with the admission permit and other materials. It will take about 6~8 working days to get the visa, so you can start ~ students should hurry up and make plans for studying abroad. Students with Korean topik3 or above should take the time to prepare materials and apply for 202 1.3 undergraduate course. Submit the materials before 2020. 10. 15. Students who have no basic knowledge of Korean should take the time to apply for the language institute in 2020, 12, 10, and then apply for the undergraduate course in 202 19.
Third, the advantages of studying in South Korea
1, it is easier to enroll in a prestigious school.
Take Korea University as an example. Korea University, ranked 83rd among QS world universities in 2020, and Fudan University is the same university in China. Needless to say, everyone in China can understand the difficulty of enrollment in Fudan University. However, in Korea, as long as you pass the exam and prove your high school grades, you can apply for the Korean Academy. If you have TOPIK scores, you can apply for the corresponding major in Korea in the third grade.
2. Compared with other countries, the cost is lower.
The undergraduate tuition in Korea is 30,000-50,000 yuan per year, and the living expenses are still relatively low compared with those in Europe and America. Normal tuition and living expenses add up to about 6.5438+0.2 million yuan. Cost-effective, generous scholarship ~
3. Get close to China and adapt to life quickly.
Studying at a university in China, my hometown may be farther away from the city where I study than from South Korea. South Korea is an Asian, so it won't feel strange. Its habits are similar to those of China, and it adapts quickly, not to mention the time difference.
4. The security in Korea is very good.
Public places in Korea are all non-smoking places. If you have smokers, you should find it really troublesome to find smoking areas in public places. Convenience stores will not sell alcohol and tobacco to minors, and the clerk will ask you for relevant documents. Minors are not allowed in and out of the club!
