Dorm Options


Hello blog readers, 

During that summer I rewrote and revised my essay over and over again, until I felt confident enough to turn it in with my application. When the fall semester began again, I had completed my UC International Abroad Application and worked on the second part of the Online application. I also attended a Pre-departure orientation; here is where you will receive a code required for your online application. Lastly I sent in my application to Korea University. As long as you keep a note about your deadlines and stay in contact with your traveling adviser you should have no problem with the application process.

Enough with all my blabbering of forms and applications. Lets talk about something fun. Where you will live for the next 4 months in Korea?

Your first option would be the University dorms that are offered. These are 





*CJ is Korea University's dorms. It is located behind the campus and is about a 10 minute walk to it. For the application process you are required to setup your own account, during the setup you will choose your preference of room, updated info and you are all set. You will not need to worry about the TB test and Dorm receipt until you are assigned a room. (CJ was my dorm.)

Another option I recommend is
                            
                                                           Crimson House

Crimson House is located right in front of the main gates of Korea University campus. Its very easy to get a reservation. Just log on the website and input your information. If you call and talk to Christine the manager, she speaks very good English.

If you do not like these two options I recommend these two websites:

                                                       Airbnb or Goshipages

Both of these are great sites for finding cheap and nice hostels or apartments for students.

*I will give a more detailed report on the actual dorms and hostels in my next post.
