Hello.


This is Ciel from Famigo who informs you about the law and visa common sense in Korea every day.

Many foreigners are studying in Korea through D-2 visas. More than 160,000 students are developing their dreams by studying in Korea. 


The D-2 visa is very limited in terms of the length of stay, and even if it is extended, it is difficult to prepare it alone as you have to plan it in consideration of your academic schedule.

In particular, many foreign students majored in business administration or humanities, which are known to be preferred majors in Korea, but they have difficulty getting a job with a D-10 visa or are struggling because their majors do not fit them. 


Until then, school change or re-entry permits had been significantly restricted, but a special case was recently announced, allowing school change and sub-course re-entry within the length of stay for each degree course if the qualifications were met and the permit conditions were met.

Today, we would like to find out these conditions.


1. a school change in equivalent degree programs

- Where a notification disposition is given for violation of Article 18 of the Immigration Control Act

- If you do not have Korean proficiency (TOPIK level 3 or higher or KIIP level 3 completion)

- If you drop out or are subject to departure in principle


If you do not meet the above conditions, you can change the school of your equivalent degree program.


2. a change in a subdegree course

Within the range of 3 years of professional bachelor's, 6 years of bachelor's, 5 years of master's, and 8 years of doctor's, even if you graduate from your university or move to a sub-degree program, you will be allowed to change only to the 'changeable major' if you can graduate without exceeding that period.


(Major allowed to change: IT, electronics, machinery, computers, communications, information security, AI, robots, automobiles, shipbuilding, flying, drones, railroad engineering, life, environment, chemical, energy, industrial safety engineering, agriculture, industry, agriculture, fisheries, construction, manufacturing, root industry, shipbuilding and marine engineering, caring, nursing, silver, medical services, K-pop, K-beauty, K-food, Korean culture-related majors)


I hope it will be helpful to international students who are having a hard time due to difficulties in finding a job or not having a good major.


If you have any additional questions, please contact Famigo and we will respond kindly.

We will try to make sure that you live a stable life in Korea today as well.

안녕하세요.


매일 한국의 법과 비자 상식에 대해 알려드리는 Famigo의 Ciel입니다.


많은 외국인 여러분이 D-2 비자를 통해 한국에서 유학을 하고 있습니다. 16만명이 넘는 학생들이 한국에서 공부하면서 꿈을 키우고 있는데요. 


D-2 비자는 체류 기간 연장도 많이 제한되고, 연장이 된다 하더라도 학사 일정 등을 고려해서 짜야하는 만큼 혼자 이를 준비하는 것은 어려운 일입니다.

특히, 많은 외국인 유학생들은 한국에서 선호된다고 알려진 전공인 경영학이나 인문학을 전공하지만, 한국인 출신을 우선적으로 고용하고 싶어하는 국내 기업의 세태에 의해 D-10 비자로 취업에서 어려움을 겪거나, 전공이 본인과 맞지 않아 힘들어하고 있습니다. 


이때까지 학교 변경 혹은 재입학 허가는 상당히 제한되었지만, 최근 특례가 발표되어 자격 조건을 충족하고 허가 조건이 맞는다면 학위 과정별 체류 기간 한도 내에서 학교 변경 및 하위과정 재입학이 가능해졌습니다.

오늘은 이 조건들을 알아보고자 합니다.


1. 동급 학위과정의 학교 변경

- 출입국관리법 제 18조 위반으로 통고처분을 받은 경우

- 한국어 능력(TOPIK 3급 이상 혹은 KIIP 3단계 이수)을 갖추지 않은 경우

- 자퇴 혹은 제적으로 원칙적으로 출국 대상인 경우


위 조건에 해당하지 않는다면, 동급 학위과정의 학교 변경이 가능합니다.


2. 하위 학위 과정의 변경

전문학사 3년, 학사 6년, 석사 5년, 박사 8년의 범위 내에서, 재학 중인 대학을 졸업하거나 하위 학위과정을 이동하더라도 해당 기간을 초과하지 않고 졸업 가능한 경우 ‘변경 허용 전공’에 한해 변경이 허가됩니다.


(변경 허용 전공: IT, 전자, 기계, 컴퓨터, 통신, 정보보안, AI, 로봇, 자동차, 조선, 비행, 드론, 철도공학, 생명, 환경, 화학, 에너지, 산업안전공학, 농축산학, 어업학, 건설학, 제조학, 뿌리산업 관련전공, 조선해양학, 돌봄, 요양, 실버, 의료서비스, K-pop, K-beauty, K-food, 한국 문화 관련 전공)


취업의 어려움 혹은 전공이 맞지 않아 힘든 시기를 보내고 있는 유학생 여러분들에게 도움이 되었으면 좋겠습니다.


추가적인 문의 사항은 Famigo로 연락주시면 친절하게 답변드리겠습니다.

오늘도 여러분들의 안정적인 한국 생활을 위해 노력하겠습니다.

Famigo였습니다.
