Studying in South Korea
Indian students go to Korea for comparatively low tuition versus the US/UK/Australia, strong engineering/technology programmes, and a growing number of English-taught tracks, alongside interest driven by Korean culture. A Standard Admission Letter from the university precedes the D-2 student visa application, and long-term study is on the D-2 visa (D-4 is for non-degree language/general training).
- Visa
- D-2 student visa (degree programmes); D-4 for non-degree training/language courses — USD 60 · about ₹5,747
