Health Insurance
Exchange students or their parents/guardians are responsible for the cost of any medical treatment should it arise during their stay in Korea and HUFS. Students should bring comprehensive travel and medical insurance before coming to Korea which covers hospitalization and medical care occurring during international travel and sojourns, as well as repatriation to their home country in any case of medical emergency.
Additionally, starting Spring 2021, a new law requires all exchange students to register and pay for the National Health Insurance plan in Korea. This is a monthly payment that helps medical and health expenses and services in Korea. Students can apply for an exemption from this healthcare after they arrive in Korea.
