Please review the following information if you are writing a thesis.

3. For International Students not currently in Korea,

- Certain situations may prevent you from directly submitting your thesis to the Academic Affairs Office. In these cases, students are encouraged to consult with their thesis supervisor. If possible, it may be best to ask your supervisor to sign and submit the recommendation form to Academic Affairs on your behalf.

- If it is impossible for you to submit 3 hardcopies of the thesis, send me an e-mail and attach the thesis. I will make the 3 copies.
