Prospective applicants that are currently in their senior year of university are still eligible to apply for many of the public school programs in South Korea, however they must submit the appropriate forms such as the Proof of Enrollment Letter and a Letter of Intent to Graduate.
can it be any bachelor degree?
Hi Ashley,
Yes, any bachelor’s degree is eligible for applying working E2 visa in South Korea.
Regards,
I will graduate with a Bachelor’s in English, soon. Do I need to be TEFL/TESOL certified if my major is English?
In regards to the BA or BS degree: I am completing an online degree (121 credits, which is a full 4-year degree) from an accredited school, but am accelerating. I will be done by August of this year. In my case, will I still be able to apply to Korvia for next Spring semester? And will I be able to submit an Intent to Graduate letter as well so I can get the application process started early?
Yes, you can submit an Intent to Graduate letter first. However, you must obtain your diploma before you are coming to South Korea.
I don’t have a bachelor’s degree, am I not eligible even if I take a TEFL course?
Hi Petra,
A bachelor’s degree is a minimum requirement for an E2 working visa in Korea.
If I earn a Bachelor’s degree from an online accredited college, but it takes me less than 3 years, I can’t teach English in South Korea since it didn’t take me 3 plus years?
Is 3 year bachelor’s degree accepted
can a 17 years old student apply

Hi there. Are Bachelor’s degrees from the Open University (3 years) accepted?
Hi Lotte, as long as it is a Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university and not an associate’s degree or anything equivalent, it is acceptable!
Good day
I’m already in Korea and I have a 3 years bachelors degree and when my school tried to register me with the office of education, they were told that I need to have a 4 years degree. What could be the issue?
TIA
Hello Tia,
That is unusual. It should be okay if you have a 3 years Bachelors Degree. If you have submitted the correct documents and your transcripts, you should be okay proceeding to register with your Office of Education.
