Tuition ranges from 3,000–6,000 USD per year, with living costs around 400–700 USD per month
Seoul offers a modern environment with higher costs, major cities are more affordable, while smaller provinces are easier for visa approval and offer more scholarships
Popular majors chosen by Vietnamese students:

Not every student needs to attend a top-ranked university; choosing a school that fits academic ability and financial capacity is more important
Mid-tier universities offer easier visa approval, lower tuition, moderate academic pressure, and higher chances for part-time work and long-term stay in Korea
This is also the strategy recommended by Queen Group for most Vietnamese students studying in South Korea for the first time.
