National/private status: 대학알리미 (Higher Education in Korea). Programmes: each university's international-admission guide. Scholarships: the university's own guide or international office, where published (7 universities). International students and dormitory places: 공공데이터포털 (KEDI) figures for 2025; dormitory is the share of degree-seeking international students housed on campus.
Application deadlines are not in this table because they change every year. As a rule of thumb, March intake applications usually open around September–November of the year before, and September intake around March–May — always check the university's guide for the exact dates.
Average tuition (Korean students): average annual tuition per undergraduate at that campus, 2026, from 한국장학재단 (Korea Student Aid Foundation), based on the April 대학알리미 disclosure — one figure across all programmes. It is not what international students pay: at the universities we checked, international tuition was 10–40% higher.
International tuition: per-semester range across fields, from each university's own international admission guide or tuition page (17 universities so far, those with the most international students). The first-semester bill is often a little higher (entrance and admin fees). For every other university, check its guide.
