Pre-Arrival Timeline

Overview

You can expect the follow events to occur as generally outline below. If you haven't received a confirmation or certain piece of information, please contact us at exchange@hufs.ac.kr to confirm.

May 2022 - JULY 2023

- HUFS will send your exchange coordinator an admission packet by DHL if hard copies are required by the local Korean Embassy/Consulate. Otherwise, we will ONLY send a PDF if scans are acceptable. This is increasinly common at most of the Korean Embassies (thankfully!).
- We will send you an email with a copy as well as tracking information if applicable.
- Contact the local Korean Embassy/Consulate to see if they require additional documents that you must provide in addition to the ones that HUFS provides you (such as bank statements - these are not requirements of HUFS, however).
- Take the admission packet and any other documents requested to the nearest Korean embassy and apply for a D-2-6 visa.
- Search for and/or purchase flights.
- Join the HUFS Facebook group for exchange and visiting students.

July 2023 - August 2023

- Check previous semester course listings and prepare for early-bird course registration.
- Discuss and create a study plan with your home coordinator.
- HUFS Scholarship Committee will finalize GKS and GES winners and contact them by email (no application required).
