Visa

A D-2 visa is for international students who intend to study in a regular course.
Please make sure that if you do not enroll in the course within the registration period, take a leave of absence,
withdraw from school, have completed the course, postpone graduation or did not apply for thesis-based/research-based
registration, the International Student Affairs Team is under obligation to report to the Immigration Office to revoke your visa.
Then, your D-2 visa will automatically be expired and you must leave Korea within 15 days from the day of application.
If not, you will be reported as an illegal immigrant and the Immigration Office will not approve of your future visa applications.
Also, any changes in visa status should be reported to ISAT. Students must confirm that your current visa allows you to study.
If your current visa does not allow you to study at Ewha,
you must change your current visa to the study abroad visa immediately.
