Table of Contents

○ All applicants must read this announcement thoughtfully before the application. Please note that you are responsible for any inconvenience caused by failing to understand the notice.

○ You can only apply for the family room this time. We got a lot of applicants waiting to move in for studios.

○ Siheung Campus Housing has features that is distinguishable from dormitories on other campuses.

- Since there are no R.A who manage and support the lives of students, they should be able to manage and take responsibility for their own lives on their own.

- You can live for up to two years if you maintain your qualifications after moving in, and we do not operate a temporary leave system during the vacation.

- Students can move into Studios and family rooms, and other members of the school, including teachers, employees, and researchers, reside in the two buildings allocated to the students.
