Study Abroad at HUFS

HUFS offers a wide range of academic courses to attract increasing numbers of international students from Asia, the Middle East, Europe, the Americas, New Zealand/Australia and Africa.

The Visiting Student Program allows students from other countries to attend HUFS to take advantage of our excellent faculty and courses on a temporary basis.

Students from non-partner universities can apply to spend one semester or one academic year at HUFS. Visiting students are limited to a maximum of one year of enrollment at HUFS. 

If your home university does not have a formal academic agreement with Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, you may apply for the Visiting Student Program.

As a visiting student at HUFS, you:

- study at HUFS for one or two semesters

- pay the tuition fee to Hankuk University of Foreign Studies

- are responsible for inquiring to your study abroad adviser as to whether you can earn credits for the studies you will undertake at HUFS

- may apply directly for the Visiting Student Program with a recommendation letter from one faculty member from your home university 

Students should have completed at least one semester at their home university by the time of participation in this program. In order to gain admission, students are required to provide evidence of their GPA's at over 2.5 out of 4.0 or grades equivalent to a B average.

※ Korean/English Language Proficiency Requirements

Language proficiency requirements have been established to ensure that all students registered in HUFS undergraduate programs are able to adequately participate in and benefit from instructional activities, which are mostly provided in Korean and English.
