When you hear about TOP 1 universities, you immediately think that these are the best elite Korean universities, or when you hear about TOP 3 schools, you think that these are not good schools, right? But in reality it is not like that. Next, let's study abroad at Kim's to learn about the concept of each type of school and list the schools of each type!
Every year, the Department of Justice will rely on the school's admission applications submitted to the department to review applications and classify schools, so this list will be updated annually. It was announced in February and will apply starting from the June, September, December and March flight periods of next year. The Department has a lot of spending decisions to make on this arrangement, but it will be based on two main factors
- Percentage of illegal international students
- Ability to manage and care for international students
Therefore, elite schools, also known as Korean Universities TOP 1% (TOP 1) means schools with illegal international students under 1%. This means that school classification does not affect the quality of training and reputation of the school.
For example, Seoul National University is always the leading school in terms of training quality and reputation in Korea. However, in terms of the Department of Justice's List, the school is almost always in the TOP 2.
Depending on which group the school belongs to, the form of student visa issuance will be different.
