#yonsei kli

In Korea~

Found a 고시원 to stay in and I have a phone number so I'm able to contact my friends while I'm here. I'm ready to start living and hanging out with new people. I also have to find time to study Korean every day to prepare for the KLI placement test because I need to be placed in a certain level to get credit for it back at my home uni. Anyway, if anyone in Seoul wants to hang out and do fun stuff, please hang out with me 😂😭

Low key worrying about this placement test tho. I've forgotten so much grammar and vocab and I really should've put more effort into studying.

Here we go, level 4 of Yonsei KLI coming up in a few days. Never thought I’d go that far when I started up. I’ll be graduating through to level 6 at this rate

I wanna screammmmm I'm going to yonsei korean language program for the winter semester! I'm leaving in less than 20 days AHHH I'm so excited my Korean is going to improve so much!~!~!~

I reached out to my old classmates from Yonsei KLI and it is so so so nice chatting with them. I haven’t spoken to them in months and they are still all so sweet. I’m really lucky that my level 6 class was so small that we grew close quite easily and that they all still live in Korea so we can hang out!

Honestly I was worried about talking to them now that my Korean skills feel so weak but i think talking with them is helping to bring it back. My problem now is that I keep second guessing myself when it comes to vocabulary, and then when I go to check I’m usually right anyways. ^^

Korean skills and confidence please come back to me~~~~~

I applied to the Yonsei KLI regular program for the winter semester 2016-2017... I’m so nervous...

In your experience as a student there, what are 5-10 (or less, you pick!) of the best things about Yonsei Uni? I'm considering studying there next year or in a couple years. Thank youuu

Whoops, late reply but here it is!

1.) It’s smack dab in the middle of Sinchon so you can easily walk to Idae and Hongdae - these three areas are university kids’ haven so there’s plenty of things to do on your down time!

2.) I like the way school is just done in general here? You only have like two tests and maybe some papers to write each semester. And the semester is only around three months, so ayyyy!

3.) The campus is gorgeous!! It’s so pretty to walk around and enjoy the sights (except them hills are killer on your legs)

4.) The student cafeteria ain’t that bad. Get your bang for your buck. Lots of cute cafes and restaurants nearby too. 

5.) If Steven Capener is teaching then seriously take his course. He is amazing and honestly the best professor I’ve ever had.

6.) The Sports Festival - enough said

7.) As an exchange student, you get to take KLI for free! (But the hours suck; 4-6PM everyday)

8.) Honestly the courses in general are so fucking easy for exchange kids so you’ll be able to explore Korea all you want

9.) People think you’re pretty cool for going to Yonsei, ayyy

10.) I mean this is just personal for me but I have a lot of friends who go to Underwood so it’s nice to be able to, you know, have people I can see on campus and hang around during events.

And that’s about it? Sorry there isn’t really any good, concrete reasons. Any university you go to will be an amazing experience as an exchange student. All depends on where you want to be centered at and how upscale you want your university to be~
