 Posted: Mon Mar 09, 2009 4:28 pm Post subject: Attending a Korean University |
 |
|
| I am thinking about coming back to teach in Korea and I plan on working on a Master's degree when I'm there. I'm thinking about doing it online but I remember finding a webpage for a Korean University that offers a Master's in ESL entirely in English. Unfortunately I can't remember the name or the city...has anyone heard of a university offering this program? Has anyone attended a Korean university or know if it would be possible for a foreigner on a teaching visa to enroll in one? |

I'm not sure but I don't think a degree from a Korean university would be worth the paper it's printed on outside of the country. |

This is correct.
I'm not trying to knock Korean Universities but to be perfectly honest, the only University that would offer a worthwhile degree is Seoul National. A degree from any other university would be more useful as toilet paper. |

| Well, not that a degree from your local university is going to have any more worth in todays world. You are in luck though, Seoul National is pretty cheap and a good uni to have a paper from. |
