8.Class Placement
KLI will place you into the most suitable class based on your past Korean studies through our placement test. We offer a placement test for all new students for all of our programs. Students take placement tests to determine their Korean level. They are tested in different areas (listening, speaking, reading, writing, and grammar) and placed according to their needs and abilities. If you feel that you are a beginner and that you belong in Level 1, then you do not have to take the placement test.
Each class has around 13 students. For level 1, the sections will be divided by their nationality and gender, and from level 2, the class will be divided by their Korean ability. Please note that students can not switch the program to another program after program starts.
9.Attendance
* Class attendance is mandatory and critical in language programs. Students are required to attend at least 160 hours of the total 200 class hours in order to learn the most from their programs and receive credit for each term. Students who miss more than 40 hours a term will fail and consequently not receive a grade.
10.Visa
Students who have been accepted into the KLI Program can apply for either a General Short-Term Visa (C-3) or a General Student Visa (D-4). It is essential for foreign nationals to have an appropriate visa for their study.
>General Short-Term Visa (C-3)
This visa is generally called a tourist visa or a visiting visa. Students who are planning to study at KLI for only one term (7 weeks) may apply for the C-3 visa. This visa is good for 3 months (90 days) and can be issued immediately upon application at either a Korean Embassy or a Consulate office. The carrier of this visa should coordinate his/her length of study in Korea within the effective days of the visa to avoid risking visa expiration during the course of study. Please note that we will not issue a letter of admission for a General Short-Term Visa (C-3).
>General Student Visa (D-4)
Students who are planning to study for more than one term should apply for the D-4 visa. This visa is generally good for 6 months at a time and can be renewed in Korea. Since this visa takes approximately 1 month to process upon application at either a Korean Embassy or Consulate office, it is recommended that students should apply for this visa at least 2 months before leaving for Korea.
>Korean Sponsorship Letter or Financial Statement
Students who would like to obtain a student visa should prepare a sponsorship letter from one Korean sponsor. A sponsor can be any Korean adult employed and currently residing in Korea. It is the responsibility of the student to find a sponsor. If you do not have a sponsorship letter, you can include a bank statement or certificate of remittance or exchange showing more than $5,000 and apply for the D-4 visa.
