First, the Korean study visa materials
1, application for admission
Each school has its own format, but the content is similar, which is nothing more than filling in some basic personal information, making a simple written introduction and its own study plan.
2. Copy of personal passport and 4 passport photos (white background).
3. A copy of the student ID card (some schools also need a copy of the parent ID card).
4. Copy of high school or technical secondary school graduation certificate.
5. Academic certificate (English).
Ordinary high school graduates can pass Xuexin.com certification, while technical secondary school graduates are relatively complicated and need dual certification, namely notarization certification and consular certification.
6. Copies of the household registration books of parents and students themselves.
The household registration book should be copied from the first page to the last page. If students and parents are not in the same household registration book, it is necessary to prove their kinship or notarization, and parents also need authentication in case of divorce.
7.TOPIK (Korean Proficiency Test) Level 3 Certificate (Art and Physical Education Level 2)
This certificate can be obtained by studying Korean in China, or by studying Korean in the Language Institute of Korea University for a period of time before entering the undergraduate course, and then conducting research.
8. Edge
Proof of deposit of $65,438+08,000 in four major domestic banks in the name of the applicant for studying abroad (each school may be different, please refer to the school standards for details), and the deposit must be valid for more than 6 months.
Second, the types of Korean visas.
D-2 student visa
If you want to do academic study or research in a college or university in Korea, you will apply for a D-2 student visa, including undergraduates, masters or doctoral students. D-2 visa can be extended for one year at a time in Korea.
C-3 language study visa
C-3 visa refers to a short-term study visa within 90 days. If students are going to study in Korean language education institutions for one semester, they can apply for a study visa with a residence period of three months. Applicants can apply at the embassies and consulates in China and South Korea where their household registration is located, and they can obtain such visas directly.
C-3 visa holders cannot stay in Korea for more than 90 days. If they need to extend their stay, they should apply for a D-4 or D-2 visa at the Korea Exit-Entry Administration. According to the relevant regulations of Korea, the attendance rate of students applying for visa renewal must reach over 80% during their studies at school.
D-4 language visa
If you want to study in Korean language education institutions for more than one semester, you must apply for a D-4 visa that can be extended in Korea.
Students with D-4 visas will be automatically cancelled if they are absent for more than two weeks during class. D-4 visa is an anti-visa. Only after obtaining the "Visa Issuance Permit" document from the Korean Ministry of Justice can you apply for a visa in the embassies and consulates of China and South Korea. The processing cycle is long, and applicants need to go through such procedures at least 3-4 months in advance.
Three. Matters needing attention in visa processing
Application material
The materials for applying for a study visa in Korea must be true, and no false materials can be provided. If the visa is refused because the materials are untrue, it is difficult to have a chance to apply again.
Graduation time limit
It is generally required to apply within 2-3 years after graduation. It is best for high school graduates to apply within one year after graduation and provide their study status, work certificate or study certificate during graduation.
Education certificate
When reviewing the materials, the Korean Ministry of Justice will review the authenticity of the materials by telephone, and pay attention to answering calls from parents, banks and schools.
Fourth, the reasons for the refusal of Korean visas
1) The first application for a D-2 or D-4 visa was rejected.
(1) has been to Korea before and has a bad record (criminal record, illegal detention record, etc.).
(2) Have never been to Korea, but have a bad record in China (those with criminal records).
③ The purpose of going to Korea is unclear, or there is a suspected tendency of illegal detention (the economic guarantee materials do not meet the requirements).
(4) their own conditions do not meet the requirements of visa application categories (academic qualifications do not meet, age and blank period, etc.). ).
2) After arriving in Korea with a visa, he refused to re-enter the country and was prohibited from entering the country.
(1) acts improperly, which makes the personnel of the legal department (visa officer) suspicious.
(2) Lack of materials required for initial employment.
(3) Carry-on and consignment items contain prohibited items.
3) The application for extension of D-2 or D-4 visa was rejected.
(1) Poor performance in school (poor grades, behavior violating relevant laws and regulations).
(2) Being expelled from school due to academic warning and other reasons.
Finally, the matters needing attention after the start of school. Don't think that you can sit back and relax when you go to college. This is the first step of the Long March. Attendance is a very important assessment content. Sometimes, because of the low attendance, the course fails, which affects the performance and makes it impossible to renew the contract. Even D-2-3 and D-2-4 can only be renewed for two years at a time, and the research plan and professor's approval must be provided.
