I was wondering if anyone has heard or knows about this university? It's located in Seoul, Korea I believe and I may be studying abroad at that school so I just want to know if anyone knows if it's a good school and how are the people etc.... I found their website online and I"ve heard that they're a good school but I just wondering...for more personal opinions! =] Thanks!

it's like yale for US..
it's really good school.
ranking 2nd in korea...well
in korea..
it's seoul national, yonsei, and korea university.
and many of friends i know went there for studying abroad/exchange programs~
also, i have two friends who's attending there...

i'm actually trying to go there for studying abroady thingy..^^;;
when are you planning to go?

^ took the words right out of my mouth^^
my friend from spain went there to study these past 8/9 months and she had a great time^^
i'm also planning to study for a year there next year because my school is connected with Yondeh..
it's an awesome school with a great campus because, after all, it's a private school, and like 'sarangie' stated above, it's ranked 2nd in korea after Seoul National^^

-PEACE-

YEAH... as above its really good.... but like less geeky if u know what i mean...

if you would liken it to US uni... itd be like ivy league but a party ivy league.... u got me?? probably not... but i tried...

so yeah... be prepared to have fun a fair bit... its not like seoul where everyone is like killing themselves with like 30 seconds of sleep everynight

Check out the Yonsei International Division webpage for some info.


i studied there for a year...had a great time, met tons of people, pretty easy classes, learned a lot about korea etc.

the intl program is like a party school ... and you dont learn anything~
except money being deducted from you or your parent's wallet

if you want to have a "good time", you should go

I just started to look some universities in Korea, but never see this one...oops...

I was thinking about Pusan or Cheju university....but somehow I don't find much information I want...

Yonsei seems nice though...

anyone here wants to share your story about the schools there..? I really want study in Korea...but not familiar to the system there...

wow...er...i was actually considering doing my higher edu in Seoul National. I knew it was a good school but didn't know it was THAT good.. hmmm... gotta try harder than my hard i guess... Yonsei doesn't sound so bad either..

hahahahahahahhahahahaha

exactly.

Yonsei is a VERY good school, but the international program is a joke.
I heard from my roomate that just came back from the internation program that the regular students don't really like international students because they party to much and leave not learning anything but drinking habits, and the especially dislike korean americans because they are the ones to go all out. haha

you can compare yonsei with the US's IVY league-
it's usually referred to as the "SKY" league, if you will

seoul nat'l univ.
korea univ.
yonsei univ.

i'm a student at snu -____- so hahaha i'd say-
if you're seeing to study abroad in korea,
try snu-
we have a lot of foreign students here-
and the program is very well organized

i've never actually studied at yonsei-
or met any of the foreign students there
so i can't give you a detailed and accurate rating-
but from what i've heard-
it's like what most other people in this thread have said-
they party a lot and the program doesn't have a very good image-

if you do decide to study in korea-
try considering snu ^____^

thanks for all the great replies! I would try another university but this is the one my school is affiliated with.

Hmm well ti's good for me..because i'm not a huge party person...I just wanna meet some friends, learn some stuff...then I'm good haha.

[little mixed girl]

not to be mean, but ppl have asked about yonsei 17billion times.
