FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I study in Korea without knowing Korean?
Yes. Students can start with the D-4-1 Korean language programme to reach the required TOPIK level and then move on to college or university, or choose an English-taught programme. SHI will advise a pathway that fits your current level.
How much financial proof is needed?
It varies by school, region and the consulate’s rules at the time. SHI will guide each applicant on the exact amount and format.
Can students work part-time?
D-2 students (and D-4-1 students after the required period of study) may work part-time with permission from the immigration office, for limited hours depending on their level of study and Korean ability. Part-time work does not replace the family’s financial plan.
Does SHI guarantee visa approval?
Visa decisions belong to the Korean authorities. SHI commits to honest advice and a complete, correct application.
