Konkuk University

University · Seoul

A large private university in eastern Seoul with about 2,500 foreign students, strong in engineering, business, real estate and veterinary medicine, plus a GLOCAL campus in Chungju with its own cheaper admissions. Seoul entry needs TOPIK 3 or the school's own test; an International College teaches Computer Software fully in English. TOPIK 6 pays nothing in the first semester.
