It is the student’s responsibility to obtain the correct type of visa to participate in Hanyang International Winter School. As each country has different policies in visa management, please consult the Korean Embassy or Korean Consulate Office in your country for the proper visa type.

In general, students from a country or region where Korea has a visa-waiver agreement may participate in Hanyang International Winter School with the K-ETA (Korea Electronic Travel Authorization). You may check your eligibility by visiting the K-ETA website.

Students from countries that are excluded from the visa-waiver agreement program must apply for a short-term study Visa (D-2-8) at the Korean Embassy or Korean Consulate Office in the country you are currently studying at. Obtaining a Visa may be time-consuming and therefore we encourage students to start preparing for it as early as possible.
