Development of richer perspectives about Korean culture and enhanced skills in speaking, reading, writing, and vocabulary. 

*** Note: Native speakers (those who have attended formal schooling in South Korea for one or more years) are not eligible to enroll. 

The Korean program in the School of Modern Languages requires students to be placed in language courses that align with their proficiency levels. Students are responsible for accurately informing instructors about their language abilities. Native Korean students with more than two years of formal education (K-12) in South Korea are not eligible to take any KOR 1XXX, 2XXX, or 3XXX courses, except for KOR classes taught in English (e.g., KOR 3415, 3410). Any student who provides false information will be dropped from the course with a grade of "F," which will remain on their transcript.
