How to Register

Overview

Please read the following for more information and instructions on how to enroll for courses at HUFS.

Kindly note that course enrollment in Korea is HIGHLY COMPETITIVE so it is strongly recommended that students bring a backup plan when joining our program in the likelihood of not being able to enroll for first choice courses.

course availability 

There are two rounds of course registration at HUFS. Registering for courses is very competitive and preference is given to seniors and juniors, as well to students who are majoring in a given subject. Each day of enrollment, a new number of slots for each course will become available for students. Exchange and Visiting students will be able to enroll in courses every single day (except for restricted courses).

Please note that the list of course listed above may change prior to course enrollment.

Important Notes

It is ideal to secure your courses before you come to Korea, but if you do not get the courses you want during the first round of registration, please do not worry! You will have another chance to register during Round 2. 

Many courses are restricted during the 1st round to ensure that local HUFS students get the courses they need for their majors (especially business courses). Please see the FAQ section about professor email addresses (see the video below as well) and search for your professor's contact information to get a head start.
