FAQ

2322

/ MIRKA FOJTUComing to Hanyang as an exchange student was one of the best decisions of my life. I remember my family and friends saying, "Are you crazy? What are you going to do there (in Korea)?" I've lived here for almost a year! I fell in love with Seoul, where you can never be bored and where you can get anything you can think of 24/7. I will miss the high-tech buildings next to the beautiful Buddhist temples, the late night shopping, the classical music playing in the clean public restrooms, the Internet connection everywhere, the subways and surrounding mountains, and many more things. And it's unbelievably safe! I remember one of my friends asking me why I am so happy here? I have many reasons, like the school and my many trips, adventures, and parties. But thinking about it now, I'd say the main reasons are the people and social connections I’ve made a lot of Korean friends, with people from around the world. I'm even friends with my teachers. Korea is such a good place to know, understand, and learn from. I recommend this program 100%!

/ MITTA MAHARDHIKADoing an exchange student program has been one of my dreams since I was a child, and it became true for me. Joining this exchange program was one of the best things that happened in my life. This program gave me benefits and many good experiences. Currently, I am doing my exchange program at Hanyang University. It is a new life experience for me because Korea has a different culture and lifestyle compared to my country. Living in Seoul is awesome! I am impressed with Korean people's lifestyles. Their hospitality, discipline, and kindness make me love this beautiful and well-managed city. Meeting people from other countries and making friends with them is one of the happiest moments for me. I like to meet new people, make new friends, and share my stories with them. It is a great experience when I can share my opinions and also see different points of view. The exchange program at Hanyang University gave me the greatest experiences ever. I am glad to be a part of the Hanyang exchange program. I love being here, I love the people I've met, and I will not forget it. Thank you Hanyang!


/ CHERISH IGNACIOI came from California and was given the very fortunate opportunity to come study abroad at Hanyang. This being my first time to ever be away from home, I wasn't sure what to expect. However the campus was so beautiful and the coordinators so helpful and friendly, I almost immediately felt like I found a new home here. Life at Hanyang has been so amazing, I only have good things to say about my professors. I feel like they truly care about you and want you to learn. Also, Hanyang is located near many wonderful places to hangout and eat, and if you want to go somewhere far, public transportation is a breeze. One of my favorite things about being here is learning more about Korean culture. I love it here at Hanyang! I know that I will only have great memories of my stay here and hopefully many other people will also.

/ JORDAN SHANKSI feel this is a sentiment shared by all my peers so at the risk of sounding cliché I'd like to say that I love Hanyang and Korea! Everyone here is incredibly tolerant, kind, and supportive. If you are lost people will help you without you even asking, if you drop your wallet they will tap you on the shoulder and give it to you, if you are walking down the street they’ll sometimes even stop you just to have a friendly chat. This society is friendly. People are curious to learn from you yet happy to share their culture. I have traveled the world and l have lived in many other countries and I have to say that I enjoy Korea just as much as living in Australia (which is where I'm from). AND sorry, I can't say enough about this place - EVERYTHING IS CHEAP!? WHAT?! It's a developed nation but you can get a huge, really nutritious tasty meal for 2-3 dollars US. In conclusion if you have any reluctances about coming to Korea forget them all. Move over Disneyland you just lost your title of "the happiest place on earth" to South Korea!
