Not necessarily. Many universities — particularly at postgraduate level — offer fully English-taught programmes, especially in engineering, business, and IT. However, learning basic Korean will significantly enrich your day-to-day life, improve your social integration, and strengthen your job prospects after graduation. EVEC can guide you to the right English-medium programme for your level.
The Global Korea Scholarship (GKS) is a fully-funded scholarship program sponsored by the South Korean government through NIIED (National Institute for International Education). It covers 100% of tuition fees, provides a monthly living allowance of KRW 900,000–1,000,000 (approx. USD 675–750), round-trip airfare, a one-year Korean language training course, and comprehensive health insurance. It is highly competitive — EVEC has a dedicated GKS preparation team to help you craft a winning application.
After receiving your university admission letter, you apply at the Korean Embassy in Maharajgunj, Kathmandu. Required documents include: completed D-2 visa application form, valid passport, admission letter from a Korean university, financial proof (minimum USD 5,000 in a bank account, or scholarship award letter), medical health certificate from an approved clinic, and recent passport-size photographs. EVEC handles the full documentation and provides embassy briefing sessions. Processing typically takes 5–10 business days.
Yes. International students on a D-2 visa are permitted to work up to 20 hours per week during the academic semester. During university vacation periods, there is no weekly hour restriction. This allows students to earn approximately KRW 200,000–400,000 per month (part-time), significantly helping to offset living costs. Note: you must obtain a work permit endorsement from your university and the relevant immigration office before starting work.
The D-10 (Job Seeker) visa is available to graduates of Korean universities. It allows you to remain in South Korea for up to 2 years after graduation while actively seeking employment. This is a significant advantage — it gives you direct access to careers at South Korea's major corporations including Samsung, LG, Hyundai, SK Group, POSCO, Kakao, and Naver, as well as the country's growing startup ecosystem. EVEC provides post-graduation career guidance as part of its full-cycle service.
Living costs are very manageable compared to other popular study destinations. Students living in university dormitories typically spend KRW 600,000–1,000,000 per month (approximately USD 450–750), including accommodation, food, transport, and personal expenses. Students living off-campus may spend KRW 800,000–1,200,000 (USD 600–900). South Korea also has an extensive, affordable public transport network including metro, bus, and KTX train connections between major cities.
