All students should arrive to Korea with a single-entry Student Visa (D-2) that has a period of three months. Students must obtain their Student Visa (D-2) at least one month before the semester begins. Without a proper Student Visa (D-2), students cannot study at CAU. 2. Please do not use your Student Visa (D-2) to travel to Korea before the semester starts and go back to your home country (or to a third country), since the Student Visa (D-2) is for single-entry. If you want to come earlier and travel with your Student Visa (D-2), you cannot leave Korea until you create your RC(Registration Card). 3. You should come to CAU using a Student Visa, not a Tourist Visa. You cannot change your Tourist Visa to a Student Visa (D-2) in Korea. 4. After arrival, students must create a RC(Registration Card). The RC is a legal permit, which allows students to live in Korea for their entire study period, as well as exit and enter the country freely. Students wishing to leave the country after arrival must book their RC appointment at the Immigration Office in advance of leaving the country so that they can gain re-entry permission. For your reference, the RC is created after the semester begins. 5. Students should leave Korea within 30 days of the semester-end date. Arrival dates may be subject to change due to the COVID-19 and dorm policies. Students who arrive earlier than the official move-in date of the on-campus dormitory will need to arrange their own accommodations until they can move-in. We will inform you of the exact move-in dates after you are accepted, via notices and emails. 3 Dormitory Application Application Period Spring Fall 19th-20th December TBD *The date is subject to change Off-Campus Housing All students who wish to live in the dormitory should apply through the online application page. We will send a link for the dormitory application to all students. The online application link will be sent in the middle of June. It is a first come, first serve basis. Make sure that you do not miss the application period and time since the dormitory application is very competitive. If a student wants to cancel their application for the dormitory, they need to give a notice at least three weeks before the beginning of the semester by emailing inbound@cau.ac.kr. If a student cancels their dormitory application after this time period, they may still need to the pay the dormitory fee (depending on the dormitory’s refund policy). A TB (tuberculosis) Test result in English, taken within 2 weeks before a student’s move-in date to the dormitory is also required. The test should include your name, hospital/clinic name, date of the test, and test results in English (if this is not possible, an English translation should be provided). The test can be conducted in the form of a skin test, blood test, or X-ray. Please bring the original test result to your dormitory move-in. If a student wishes to live off-campus, they are required to find and obtain an accommodation themselves before coming to Korea. It is the sole responsibility of the student to communicate with the landlord. For your reference, we provide some off-campus housing information as below: Company Name Link Ziptoss (집토스) https://ziptoss.com (Korean) https://ziptoss.com/en (English) https://ziptoss.com/zh (Chinese) Nestpick (네스트픽) https://www.nestpick.com/seoul/ (English) * CAU is not affiliated with the above companies, and we do not guarantee anything about those residences. * To find more information about off-campus housing check out this blog post: https://cauexchange.blog/2019/03/29/off-campus-living-101-tips/ Tuition and Dormitory Payment Courses Offered in English Course Registration Restrictions Fee paying students must pay the tuition in full to CAU by the second week of the semester. The dormitory fee must be paid in full during the first month of the semester. The exact deadlines will be released at a later date and students will be informed by email. Students should contact their home bank and make arrangements in advance for transfers or withdraw the necessary amount needed to complete their payment on time. Late payments are unacceptable. Please refer to the link below - a list of courses offered in English (from Fall 2021 to Spring 2022). https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UptowjQ5qrcyRklnsG3JqVEmnGVgxpi/view?usp=sharing *Please note this is only to be used as a reference. The final official list of courses will be available through the online course registration system (portal system) approximately 1 month before the beginning of lectures. Students may take courses from different departments and colleges with certain restrictions. The following are the restrictions students should be aware of regarding course enrollment: 1. During the first course registration period, all other majors CANNOT enroll in business courses and art courses. Business majors can enroll in courses all majors, except art courses. This is due to the high competition in the business department. 2. Only art majors can enroll in art courses during all three course registration periods. 3. Exchange students who would like to take courses in the School of Architecture and Building Science (College of Engineering): 1) Should be majoring in the similar major in their home universities 2) Should have taken the prerequisite courses if required by CAU 3) Their home university has to be accredited for Architecture / Architectural Engineering. * If you enroll into courses incorrectly, you will be notified by email within 1-2 business 4 National Health Insurance Service days. According to a change in national policy, all international students are subject to a mandatory subscription to the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS), which is operated by the Korean government. This means that students will be automatically subscribed to the NHIS, even if they do not apply, starting from the date of their entry into Korea. A bill will be sent to their Korean address after their Registration Card is made. This address would be the one they use when applying for their Registration Card. Students with NHIS will have the same benefits as Korean citizens, including dental and oriental medical treatment, health checkups, etc. There will be restrictions on health insurance benefits, visa extension, etc., if the fee is unpaid. In other words, students will not be able to extend their study period at CAU. Since the fee is relatively high (approximately 40 USD per month), students can choose to obtain other private insurance plans in their home countries before coming to Korea. However, this would mean they would be deliberately choosing to ignore Korea’s national policy, and they will face the disadvantages mentioned above. For all inquiries, students should visit the NHIS website, or contact the NHIS Customer Service (1577-1000, dial 7 for informational in foreign languages) or NHIS Foreign Language Consultation (033-811-2000) after arriving in Korea. *All exchange/visiting students are responsible for National Health Insurance Service payment for themselves. The OIA will not be able to financially support any student in case of accidents or injuries.
