Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1) Do I need to submit the English transcript andCertificate of Enrollmen after receiving the One-Stop Center stamp?

A: No, it is not necessary. For these documents, downloading it directly from the portal (via Certificate Issuance) is also acceptable.

2) Should the filenames of the uploaded files be completely identical for all files?

A: This is related to personal verification, so as long as the spelling is exactly the same, it is sufficient. It doesn't matter if there are slight differences in capitalization.

3) I'm curious about the interview scheduling process.

A: Interview schedules are assigned in the order of submitted applications. If your available interview time is limited, we recommend applying as soon as possible. If you apply late and find that the available interview slots for you are already filled, we will randomly assign an interview schedule for you, so please keep that in mind. Once scheduled, interview times cannot be changed.

4) Can students with double majors apply for the exchange student program?

A: Yes, if you have taken 12 or more credits in the Business Administration department, you are eligible to apply. If you only have grades for one semester at the time of applying for the exchange program, you can input the grades for that semester only. In such cases, for the previous semester, you can enter 0 points.
