    I really wanna study abroad but scared to go alone lol. It’s nice that your friend is there with you, it makes it easier to start anew. But how do you overcome the language barrier? 😭

      i came with no prior knowledge of korean. the language barrier isn’t as difficult as it seems. navigation apps like kakao and naver maps are user friendly and have an english option for getting around. at restaurants, many have english menus. if not, you can always use the translation app papago or honestly, just point to pictures. at stores and everywhere else, everyone is typically nice to foreigners and will help through the language barrier. solo traveling is super scary at first, but it’s also super exciting. i have no doubt you’ll make friends in seoul, but it’s equally as easy to have fun on your own here :)

    hi! i’m thinking of applying for a study abroad at yonsei, particularly so i can solidify my korean!! by the looks of it though, it does seem like a lot of things are separate for international students, so i wanted to ask do you study alongside home students? or are things separated for study abroad/global students?

    Hi Annika I love your vlog! I’m doing the Yonsei summer program in a couple months. Do you recommend SK global or woonjungwon for location closest to classes without a lot of walking?Thanks!

    • @annikagail
      @annikagail  16 днів тому

      i only had i-house and sk as options so i don’t know much about woojungwon. however, i believe woojungwon is located on a hill, so it may be a bit of a tiring walk. sk walk is about 15 mins, depending on which path you take. i also think woojungwon only has doubles and triples, whereas sk has singles and doubles. but i believe woojungwon is newer (opened in 2014 vs 2010). the biggest difference to me would be that woojungwon has a curfew and sk does not :)

    Tell me, did you arrive in March? And when does the school year in Korea start? In my country, it starts on September 1, so check-ins in dormitories take place in the summer

    Hey I'll be going there next semester! Any tips with classes?

    • @annikagail
      @annikagail  16 днів тому

      if you’re going as an exchange student, honestly i would recommend to go lighter rather than packing your classes. if you need to do max amount of credits, then of course do that! but if you have more flexibility, i would recommend to lean into a lighter course load. you’re going to want to explore and maybe even travel, so taking less classes will allow you to explore korea and also have the right amount of time to focus on the classes you have. i have no classes on fridays, which has been more of a benefit than i could have anticipated. it allows for long weekends for trips, and there are less crowds in touristy places on weekdays (before 3pm). for the actual classes themselves, if you’re taking all english classes, then it’ll be taught in relatively the same structure. it shouldn’t be too much adjustment, but always be adaptive! :)

      i applied through specifically the yonsei exchange program so it was relatively simple, as opposed to applying as a regular student at yonsei, which would be much more difficult !
