Important notices

Hanyang University opened new website for inbound students. Please explore new website for in-depth
program details and information● Link: https://site.hanyang.ac.kr/web/exchangein/homeStudent VISA(D-2-6) is necessary before entering Korea
All foreign exchange students need to obtain D-2-6 visa for their studies at Hanyang before entering Korea.
D-2-6 visa is a single-entry visa and it will be valid only for 90 days after student’s arrival in Korea.
Therefore, students should apply for an "Alien Registration Card (ARC)" to extend their stay to complete theprogram and to allow themselves to travel to other countries if needed.
• Before student arrives in Korea: Need to apply for D-2-6 VISA
• After student arrives in Korea: Need to apply for an Alien Registration Card with the proper VISA.
- MUST be registered within 90 days after arrival- Until you receive your FRC, you CANNOT leave Korea- Leaving Korea during application will result in CANCELLATION of VISA and the student exchange program- Study in Korea without FRC is illegal

Enrollment of Graduate Students (Seoul Campus ONLY)
Hanyang University is accepting exchange students only to the Undergraduate program and is not accepting

students to the Graduate program. Graduate students are still welcome to join the Undergraduate program if
the home university permits and will have same eligibility. (Please note that Hanyang University offers larger
number of English courses in undergraduate program).
* This change will not be applied to the universities directly partnered with our Graduate Schools

Cumulative GPA Confirmation
To consider and respect as much as our partners’ diverse grading system and to meet the qualification of theHanyang University exchange program, we would like to request a confirmation from the student’s home
university for the cumulative GPA. There will be a part in the nomination system to confirm that the student’s
cumulative GPA is over 60% based on home university grading system, and it should be confirmed by the home
university coordinator in order for the student to be qualified to apply for the Hanyang exchange program.

On-Campus Dormitory
On-campus dormitory will not be available until further notice. Instead, we will share useful information thatstudents can refer to when arranging accommodation through newsletter.
* This policy will be implemented also for partners with reciprocal agreement regarding the dormitory. We will
be sending a separate email for further information.

National Health Insurance
The Korean government is mandating all long-term sojourn foreigners to be registered for the National Health
Insurance. Exchange students will be subject to the registration after applying for the Foreign Registration Card.
Please note that the individual health insurance will be still required, as the national health insurance will not bevalid until the Foreign Registration Card(FRC) is issued, and it may not cover some unexpected matters related tointernational students, such as hospitalization and etc.

Korean Language Course (Not a regular course in Hanyang)
Korean Language Course will not be included in the student exchange program. Students who wish to take a
Korean Language Course should contact the IIE(Institute of International Education) that manages the courseand register for the fee-paying Korean course individually.

are allowed to take courses from different departments upon availability. The most up-to-date course list
becomes available a month prior to the beginning of semester. Until then, student should refer to the previous
year’s course list. (e.g. 2024 Fall semester applicant should refer to 2023 Fall semester course list)

while maximum credits are 20. Exchange students should take at least one regular course to maintain their D-2visa. (Korean Language Course from Hanyang IIE is not a regular course offered by HYU.)
