Before coming on Study (D-2) or Language Training (D-4) — the Standard Admission Letter
This page is machine translated from Ieumi's guide written in Korean. If the meaning is confusing, please look at the Korean original text. View original text (Korean)
A degree-course study visa is applied for with a 「표준입학허가서」(Standard Admission Letter) issued by the school. The school screens your ability to study and your finances, and puts the result in the letter. For language training, you submit documents showing admission or enrollment and financial documents.
📞 Contact
The international student office of the school you will enter · the Korean mission in the country where you live
⚠️ Things to watch out for
How much you must show for financial ability can change, so ask the international office of the school you will enter or the Korean mission where you will apply. The Ministry of Justice announced in October 2026 that it will change the student visa system. If you want to work part-time after coming to Korea, get permission first before you work.
