As in many other universities in the country, the academic calendar at SMU is divided into two semesters. But for convenience, tuition fees are calculated per year. Tuition fees at SMU are different for locals and foreigners. South Korea citizens pay 5 USD per year, while international students pay a minimum of 7,500 USD. With the help of financial support programs, students can partially or fully cover the cost of education. On the official website of the university, you will find all the relevant information about tuition fees and scholarships.
Also, be prepared for additional expenses: accommodation, transportation, study materials, meals and personal expenses.

SMU campus
The campus of SMU is located in Cheonan. This is a fairly large city that opens up many opportunities for students: from cafes, restaurants and other entertainment to internships at large companies. But an urban campus can also be a disadvantage, because big city life distracts some students from their studies. There is a library on the grounds of the university. There are collected scientific works of graduates and teachers of the university, as well as fiction. SMU regularly accepts students for international exchange programs, providing both local and international students with the opportunity to come into contact with different cultures and gain unique experience.
In order to stay in South Korea for another 6 months after graduation, you can apply for a job seeker visa. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
