Official figures from the source page on the date checked. Estimates are Waegook's. Unknown is shown as not published, never as zero.
A scholarship below can remove the tuition line.
What can I study?
- Korean Language Education (Korean Linguistics, Korean Language Education), History, Library and Information Science, Culture Contents
- English Language and Literature: no intake this round
- Korean Language Education, History, Library and Information Science, Culture Contents
- English Language and Literature: English Edu-Tech only
Published by Hansung University. Which of these a scholarship covers is decided by the school.
What do I need?
- Application form (with your own bank account and one mobile messenger ID) and an uploaded photo; self-introduction in Korean (English only if unavoidable) and a pledge, both on school forms
- University graduation (or expected) certificate and transcript: originals within 2 months of the application start, or notarised within 6 months; apostille or consular confirmation (China: apostille of both certificates)
- PhD applicants add the master's certificate and transcript. Passport or ID copies of you and both parents; alien registration card copy if in Korea
- Notarised family relation certificate within 1 year (Mongolia: 45 days); TOPIK 3 or higher, unexpired; English score (English track only); financial papers; optional recommendation letter and document list
- Foreign degrees also need proof of accreditation (China: CHSI and English degree certificate; USA: CHEA printout; others: see the guide), a record check consent and a printout of your university's contact page
THE BANK BALANCE IS 20,000,000 WON OR MORE. In Korea: a Korean bank certificate in your own name, kept until a date each guide sets (Fall 2026: 31 August 2026). Abroad: your or a parent's certificate in USD worth 20,000,000 won or more.
Bank papers are issued within 30 days of the application start. After admission an overseas remittance confirmation is compulsory.
Study funds should come from abroad by bank transfer, and the balance less living costs must stay in the account for 6 months. Cash deposits may have to be explained; a refused visa cancels the admission.
Expected-graduation certificates from foreign universities are not accepted, except a provisional or temporary certificate from countries with delayed diplomas, within 1 year of graduation.
The countries the guide names for that exception: Vietnam, Myanmar, Nepal, India, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Israel and others.
Application fee 85,000 won for the international track (master's and PhD), not refundable unless the school cancels the exam. No tuition, entrance fee or dormitory figure is printed in the graduate guides or registration pages.
An older undated page gives other figures (a higher bank balance, an English-taught trade master's, fixed scholarship cuts); the dated 2026 guide is used here.

- The guide asks international applicants to get counselling from the Graduate School Academic Affairs Office (+82-2-760-4271, hsgrad@hansung.ac.kr) before applying online; the Fall 2026 notices said it is optional if your papers are complete
- Special graduate schools (evening master's in business, public administration, arts, consulting and real estate) also take the international track; they are not listed here. Immigration asks evening students for stricter money proof
