Know a lab taking students?

Engineering, BS. Tell us the lab and its page. We check that the page says it takes students and that it welcomes foreigners before it goes up.

What you pay

Official figures from the source page on the date checked. Estimates are Waegook's. Unknown is shown as not published, never as zero.

What do I need?

• Application form, typed into the online system Apply
• Self-introduction and study plan, up to 4,000 bytes, about 800 English words
• A recommendation from a high school teacher, submitted online by the teacher
• Proof of Korean or English: a test score, a standardised exam with a Korean or English score, or official proof your whole high school course was taught in Korean or English
• High school transcripts for every year, up to the latest term
• High school graduation or expected-graduation certificate, with the date highlighted
• Copy of your unexpired passport
• A document showing your relationship to both parents, such as a birth certificate
• Optional: school-leaving or standardised exam results (A-Level, IB, SAT, Gaokao, Abitur), other language scores, a school profile, up to ten activities
• Copy of both parents' nationality documents
• Optional: a statement and supporting documents if you need to explain eligibility or other facts
• For art or music applicants only: portfolio and pledge

SCANS ONLY TO APPLY. After a preliminary offer the originals go by post, with an apostille or consular confirmation on your school documents.

The 70,000 fee cannot be waived or refunded.

One application per intake. Applying twice disqualifies you.

Admitted students SNU picks for its Korean test sit it in February, and the result can limit which courses you take.

Art and music applicants send a portfolio to their college directly.

Documents in any other language need a notarised translation.

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

All requirements

• You and both parents hold foreign nationality. If any of you was Korean, it had to be given up before 9 July 2026
• A GED, homeschooling or cyber study is NOT accepted
• Chosen on your documents alone: grades, aptitude for the subject, language and activities. SNU publishes no quota and no applicant numbers
• You finish high school by 28 February 2027
• Ask your college whether it teaches in English: SNU says to check with the college or department directly
• You and both parents must have become foreign nationals before starting Korean-equivalent high school study
• If you got foreign nationality through immigration or adoption, you must submit proof of it
• Your high school qualification must be officially approved by a government institution
• If you or a parent do not meet the nationality rule, a second track (Type II) is open to people who did all their schooling, from primary to high school, outside Korea. It can include a video interview
