Exchange Student Information Collection

I will enter university and spend hectic days, but if the advantage of college freshmen was campus life, I think the beauty of my second year of college is an exchange student. The joy of becoming an adult is that when you are in college for a while, you often go abroad to study for a challenge that is not a new challenge. However, it can be difficult to choose because studying abroad itself has to be both a cost problem and a long-term overseas life. If we use the exchange student system that we can reasonably choose at this time, I think we can create a pleasant college life for college students.

# Meaning of an exchange student

 

교환학생 신청 교환학생 정보

An exchange student literally means exchanging students. In other words, schools are exchanged overseas for cultural exchange of each country. If there is an overseas university connected to the university you are currently attending, you can apply as an exchange student for a certain period of time. Studying abroad itself is a system in which exchange students return to their school after a certain period of time, so the cost is low, but the graduation semester may be delayed because they have to return to school and take credits.

In the case of exchange students, they can receive much more support and receive scholarships. And certainly, as you experience overseas school club activities or communities, you can have more opportunities to treat foreigners. Lastly, since I am an exchange student, I can go abroad safely and easily as work is carried out through school.

 - Application for an exchange student

First, you have to decide which country and which university to go to, and at this time, you have to check whether the university you are attending has an agreement with the university you want. And since we are recruiting exchange students one semester in advance, it is better to check the application period. When applying, you must have an authorized language score such as RESUME, TOEFL, or IELTS, and you may have an interview when submitting documents. In addition, the conditions for applying for exchange students may vary depending on the university and department you want to go to. In the case of Yonsei University, the grade must be 3.6/4.3 or higher and the TOEFL score must be 94-100 points. Hanyang University will be selected through a document process without an interview, and Inha University can be selected if the TOEIC score is 700 to 800 points or higher. 

 

 - After getting accepted as an exchange student

If you pass the exchange student document and interview, you will be admitted to a foreign school. After getting a visa, you will go to an overseas school to receive an exchange student orientation, which will guide you to your student ID, driver's license, and residence report, and if you finish all your schedules, you will have to bring your grades from overseas universities to Korea.

# Exchange student expenses

There are two kinds of expenses for exchange students: tuition at our school or tuition at overseas universities. In addition, students have to pay for housing and living expenses, so they should consider the financial part. Although it may vary slightly from school to school, housing costs usually range from 2 million won to 4.7 million won, and living costs should be expected to range from 3 to 4 million won. Please consider that there may be other expenses such as visas.
