Things to Note:

* The enrollment and orientation fees are a one-time fee paid by all first-semester students (freshmen and transfer). Orientation fees covers meals and accommodation during our Team Building (Orientation) week but does not include bus fare from the airport.

The dormitory does not provide bedding, sheets, or pillows, however they can be acquired for a fee upon arrival, in most cases.

All first-year students (freshman and transfer) must get a Residence Card upon arrival in Korea. Korean Immigration charges $31 for the Residence Card. It is similar to the Korean ID card and must be carried with you at all times.

The above prices are meant to act as a guideline and are subject to change, especially adjustments to Residence and Health Care.

The costs provided do not include other meals, books, or pocket money. Meals cost approximately $5.00 in the SolBridge cafeterias. Meals eaten off-campus may cost more. Books are typically in the range of $600 per year; pocket money expenses depend on the lifestyle of the student.

Orientation week fee refunds are only issued if the student is no longer attending SolBridge International School of Business. However, this is subject to change, as it depends on the student’s individual case.

According to the school’s policy, other fees might be added during the semester.
