Other Korean Cities

Study Beyond Seoul and Busan

Other Korean cities can offer a very different study experience.
Before choosing, compare not only the university, but also the city around it: campus location, housing, transport, language environment,
student life and daily travel time.
Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju and Incheon are useful cities to include in a first comparison.
The best choice depends on your programme, budget, preferred pace of life and the kind of campus environment you want.

What to compare

University and programme fit
Does the city have universities that match your academic goals?
Housing and daily costs
Look beyond tuition and compare rent, transport and everyday expenses.
Campus location and transport
A university may be in the city centre, on the outskirts or on a separate campus.
Student life and language environment
Consider how international the campus is and how much Korean you may use in daily life.
