ACADEMICS

All master's degree students can participate in any of the existing exchange programs after completing two terms by the time of application or three terms by the time of departure. Credits earned from the exchange program can be transferred to the KDI School after consultation with the Office of Academic and Student Affairs. Students participating in the exchange program will pay tuition only to the KDI School, not to the host institution.

Remarks

Students who satisfy the KDI School’s internal requirements will be eligible to apply to the exchange partner school. Once students receive admission from the exchange partner school, they will be considered as exchange students for the upcoming semester. All relevant information is subject to change, including study period and number of applicants. If you change your decision after the final selection, you will be limited in your opportunities for future international program.
