Frequently Asked Questions

The "list" of available courses only starts being ready around one month for the semester starts, right before early-bird course registration.  When you are filling out your online application, you are just adding classes that you are interested in taking (this is just a proposal for informational purposes). What you actually end up registering for will depend on what is offered, the amount of space in the class, how you can fit all of your classes into one schedule, etc.

Just let us know by email; it's a simple mistake.

The class slots open on the first day of the registration period are only for 4th-year students. You may find more slots available on the following 3rd-year student day and then again on Wednesday for 2nd-year students. We recommend checking every day to see if new slots open. Monday to Thursday the slots are LIMITED to give priority to these years. Friday is when it is full, open registration.

If a course says "0/0" (or null), this means an instructor has not been assigned to a course and no one can register for it yet. 

It can be difficult to register for classes when you need permission, and often you might miss a class that only meets once a week. You can contact professors in advance to begin asking for permission, even if you have to wait until the 2nd round of course registration. The easiest way to search for HUFS faculty is through E-Class or Google.

This is more complicated now, however, due to COVID-19 and face-to-face/online delivery. Please consult with the OIAM.

Login to HUFS Web Information System (WIS: https://wis.hufs.ac.kr/ )

After you are logged in, you can open the course syllabuses and see the email addresses of the instructors on our Google Site or Homepage. See the video on the "How to Register" page.

E-Class

You can log into E-Class (using your student ID and password) to get a professor's email address off the syllabus. After logging in, click on the "Edu Status" link on the left side of the page. You can search for your classes here, but some of the search parameters are only in Korean unfortunately.

Google

Yes, simply copy and paste the professor's name+HUFS in Google and you will often get a link directly to their department homepage which will have their email address (sometimes a lot faster than E-Class).

Ask Us

We can easily look up faculty contact using the Mobile Campus app - the ability to search for faculty contact information is unfortunately only allowed for employees at this time. Just be sure to give us their exact name.

You can find classes, which are taught in English, mostly in the following departments/majors:

• English for International Communication and Conferences (EICC)

• English Linguistics and Language Technology (ELLT)

• Division of International Studies (DIS)

• College of Business

• Department of International Economics and Law

Please keep in mind that most international students (i.e., degree-seeking students) at HUFS take classes taught in Korean.

Please see the English-Taught Courses page for more detailed information.

When the registration period opens, there are thousands of students trying to register for classes all at once. Because of the massive amounts of web traffic, the server will often crash or be unavailable. You have to keep trying to login throughout the day and register for classes.

The first week of the semester during the second round of course enrollment (assuming the department lets instructors override enrollment limitations on exchange students). You need to complete the Permission Form (see How to Register) and send us the requested information along with your proof-of-permission from the instructors (combine everything as a single PDF file). 

We will try to register you for those classes and let you know if we are able to or not. It is possible, of course, that even with permission, it is not possible to add you to a class for a number of reasons such as space limits, restrictions by the department, etc.
