Admissions details
Application period
[2026 Fall Semester Foreign Freshman/Transfer admissions guideline] Application & Document Submission: 2026.05.18(Mon)~06.05(Fri) 17:00 / Korean Language Proficiency Assessment (for applicants without a TOPIK score): 2026.06.19(Fri) / Interview: 2026.06.25(Thu) / Results Announcement: 2026.06.30(Tue) / Tuition Payment: 2026.07.06(Mon)~07.10(Fri) / Certificate of Admission Issuance: 2026.07.13(Mon)~07.17(Fri) / Arrival & Housing Assignment: 2026.08.26(Wed)~08.28(Fri) / Start of Class: 2026.09.01(Tue). ※ A later ‘Admission Results & Tuition Payment’ table in the same guideline lists a different results date, 2026.07.30(Tue), and a different tuition-payment window, 2026.07.19(Mon)~08.21(Fri) — the two schedules conflict within the source document (unverified). [Separately, a ‘2027 Overseas-Korean and Foreign Student Special Admission’ PDF posted at ipsi.dju.ac.kr] gives: 1st-round application 2026.07.07(Tue)~07.10(Fri) 17:00, 2nd-round application 2026.12.21(Mon)~12.23(Wed) 16:00 / document submission 2026.12.24~12.30 22:00 / initial registration 2027.02.10(Wed)~02.12(Fri) 16:00 — this appears to be a separate track run by the Admissions Office (ipsi.dju.ac.kr), possibly distinct from the Institute of International Affairs’ ‘International Student Admission’ guideline above (unverified; relationship between the two tracks not confirmed).
