A scholarship below can remove the tuition line.

What can I study?

Published by Daegu Catholic University. Which of these a scholarship covers is decided by the school.

What do I need?

• Application, study plan, academic record check consent, personal data consent, private insurance pledge and translator confirmation on the school forms
• High school diploma (notarised translation; China: CHSI report or apostille; elsewhere apostille) and the full transcript; transfers add the university certificate and full transcript
• Passport copy; nationality proof of you and both parents; family relation certificate (China: hukou plus kinship certificate; elsewhere a government certificate with notarised translation)
• Financial guarantor's bank balance certificate plus the guarantor's employment and income certificates
• If you have them: alien registration cards (you and parents), entry and exit record, language score, department head's ability verification; the application-fee transfer receipt

THE BANK BALANCE IS 16,000,000 WON OR MORE from your financial guarantor, deposited for at least a month, filed WITH the application (the English guide prints "more than US $18,000"; the Korean guide governs). DCU institute trainees file their own Korean-bank certificate of 8,000,000 or more.

Application fee 100,000 won by transfer to the university's iM Bank account (holder 대구가톨릭대학교); unpaid in the window means the application is cancelled.

Dormitory: four-person room in the International Building, 550,000 won management fee a semester (107 days), shared bathroom, meals separate; round-1 applicants get priority.

Refunds: five sixths within 45 days of the semester start, two thirds to 60 days, half to 90 days, nothing after.

From the official guide. The school decides what it accepts, not Waegook.

All requirements

• You and BOTH parents are foreign nationals with no Korean nationality

• Selection is 100% on documents (an interview for applicants schooled entirely abroad, or where the English track or a department head must verify ability); no quota
• Medicine, Nursing and Pharmacy are not open; undeclared (Francisco College) students cannot later move to those, Theology, Education, Design, Pet Health, Radiology or Physiotherapy. Confirm your major with the admissions officer
• Transfers: year 2 after one year at a four-year university; year 3 with a junior college degree or two years; year 4 for three-year college graduates. Two LEI semesters admit freshmen to the undeclared school only
• TOPIK 4 or the LEI online Korean course is needed to graduate; health insurance is compulsory; a visa refusal cancels the admission
