Who is this program for?
School leavers interested in business, entrepreneurship, marketing, finance or organisational leadership who prefer a broad degree before committing to a narrow professional field.
Career directions
Possible starting directions include business operations, marketing support, human resources, customer and market research, international-business coordination or enterprise development. With experience or further study, graduates may work towards consulting, financial analysis or management responsibilities.
A business degree is a foundation for professional development, not automatic certification as an accountant or financial adviser. Professional recognition and seniority depend on further qualifications, experience and the relevant jurisdiction.
Admission and language requirements
- Completed secondary education or an accepted equivalent qualification for undergraduate entry.
- Academic transcripts, graduation documents, passport and nationality or family documents as required for your application.
- English-language guidance for the international route generally uses IELTS 6.0, with different guidance for some applicant groups. Ask us to check the applicable benchmark and accepted alternatives.
- Suitable language evidence and any additional material requested by the university.
- Financial and document-verification requirements must be checked for your applicant profile.
Plan before you submit. Asia Pathway can review your background, identify missing documents and explain the next steps. Meeting a minimum requirement does not guarantee admission; the university makes the final decision.
Tuition and scholarships
Budget per semester. Tuition is charged by semester, not as one all-inclusive degree package. Ask Asia Pathway for the current standard semester fee for your exact major and entry route, together with any approved scholarship calculation. USD figures are indicative conversions; the university’s final invoice and payment-currency requirements take priority.
Undergraduate scholarship opportunities: Entry awards and continuing-student tuition reductions may be available. Continuing awards can depend on Korean-language attainment and other university conditions. We will check your eligibility and distinguish the first-semester award from later-semester support; a maximum award is not guaranteed to every student.
Other costs: Plan separately for admission or application charges, accommodation, meals, insurance, textbooks or materials, travel, visa-related expenses and personal living costs. Scholarship coverage should never be assumed to include these items.
Life and learning in Gangneung
Make Gangneung part of your learning experience. CKU offers a university setting on Korea’s east coast, giving you the opportunity to build everyday independence and explore a different side of the country from the capital. Korean-language development can make daily life more rewarding and support your longer-term professional plans.
University housing provides an option for students who want to begin with a campus-based living arrangement. Room availability, room type, meal arrangements and the residence period must be checked separately from tuition.
