It came from a fee survey rather than from the university's own table, and one university stood for the country.

학비연 ~$4.4–7.4k

Korean universities publish one tuition table and charge international students what they charge Koreans: the fee follows the faculty, not the passport, and Seoul National University's own registration page states a single undergraduate average of KRW 6,034,163 a year with no nationality clause. Three universities an international undergraduate realistically applies to, each read from its own 2026 schedule. Seoul National University's 등록금 일람표 runs from KRW 2,442,000 a semester (humanities, social science, business, law) to 4,481,000 (pharmacy), a median of 2,998,000. Yonsei's 학부 등록금 명세표 runs from 3,809,000 (humanities and social science) to 7,531,000 (advanced convergence engineering), a median of 5,021,000. Korea University's 등록금 일람표 runs from 3,846,000 to 5,278,000, a median of 4,587,500. Medicine, dentistry and veterinary are left out of all three. Recorded at the median of the three, KRW 4,587,500 a semester. The previous figure was Seoul National University alone, taken from a fee survey rather than from the university's table.

Pathoff judgement directed by evidence, not computed from it: the country’s position comes from the World Bank household consumption price level for 2024 (0.640 of the United States, CC BY 4.0 — the ICP benchmark carried forward annually by the World Bank’s own method); the US reference budget is ours. See the Pathoff method, section 12.

Pathoff education rubric (the Pathoff method, section 9-1), degree band "Internationally recognised": Accepted in most countries without explanation, with several institutions known by name in engineering and technology. At the foot of the band because outside those the median Korean university means little abroad and most teaching is in Korean.

Research impact 45th percentile globally — median of 62 ranked universities (CWTS Leiden Open Edition 2025). Research output, not teaching quality; it informs the band, it does not set the score.

졸업 후 취업A year to look for work, without the points test

Pathoff outcome rubric (the Pathoff method, section 10-2), degree outcome band "A post-study route you can rely on": A graduate who obtained an associate degree or higher at a Korean university and changes to job-seeker status for the first time is exempt from the points system and granted one year. Mid-band: the status is for seeking work rather than doing it, and converting it needs an employer and an occupation that matches the qualification.

여기는 어떤 곳인가

Korean national universities charge international students a few thousand dollars a year, the engineering and technology faculties are internationally serious, and a graduate of a Korean university gets a year on the job-seeking status without having to pass the points test that everyone else does. The obstacles are language for most programmes, and a labour market where the step from job-seeking to a work visa needs an employer and an occupation match.
