University Application Deadlines in South Korea (2027)

South Korea admits international students into a mostly Korean-taught higher education system built around two intakes, Spring in March and a smaller Fall in September, alongside a growing number of English-taught programmes. National universities such as Seoul National University and KAIST charge international students the same tuition as Korean students, while private universities generally set a separate, higher schedule; POSTECH funds every admitted freshman's first-semester tuition in full. International students hold a D-2 student visa, can work part time with prior permission, and a graduate of a Korean institution can generally move to a D-10 job-seeking visa for up to two years after finishing.
