You will be asked to provide such things as, but not limited to:
-
Certificates of deposit of 18,000 USD
-
Proof of intent to return to the home country.
If you have questions about the D-2 visa process please contact your local Korean Embassy for assistance.
If you have already received D-2 visa, check the International Student Visa Regulation.
Upon being accepted into a Namseoul IGS Program and receiving your D-2 visa, your continued enrollment in the Namseoul IGS Program will depend on complying with the D2 Visa rules and regulations while living in South Korea. This includes, but is not limited to, registering your place of employment, providing a current address and phone number, attending classes, and maintaining your GPA.
If you are an International Student who already lives and works in South Korea on a legal visa, you may attend university Namseoul Univerity without changing visas. The choice is yours.
