Program Cost

The amount of tuition you pay your first semester at SolBridge remains unchanged during your entire time in the BBA program. Other costs including residence, breakfast, activity and medical fees are reviewed every semester and subject to change. The estimated costs for one year are included below so you can do a general budget for your first year at SolBridge. For further cost inquiries, please send an email to info@solbridge.ac.kr.

The SolBridge academic year consists of two assessment periods, one in the spring and one in the fall. Each assessment period is in the form of a fifteen-week semester followed by an additional six-week inter-session semester (six weeks in the summer for the spring semester, six weeks in the winter for the fall semester). There is a five-week study break which separates each assessment period. Students are expected to stay at SolBridge during each full assessment period. Students may stay during the summer or winter five-week study breaks if they wish to participate in internships, academic programs, or for personal reasons. Apart from tuition, students must cater for other expenses including the dormitory, meals, health insurance, and dormitory security deposit without exception during their stay at SolBridge.

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

All first semester students (including Koreans) must have a medical checkup before the start of classes. Korean Medical Services charge $30 for the checkup. All full-time students must purchase Korean medical insurance. Current cost is 55$ annually.

Admission Scholarship

SolBridge International School of Business offers financial aid in the form of admission scholarships. Scholarships are granted on a case by case basis depending on the applicant’s English level, academic standing, and extracurricular activities. Admission scholarships are given for tuition only and typically range from 30 - 70% of the cost of tuition. In extraordinary circumstances, a financial tuition grant of 100% may be granted. Admission scholarships are valid for one semester.

All scholarships are tuition based. There is no financial aid available for living expenses. This includes the dormitory, costs of meals, books, medical insurance, student activity fees, and other living expenses. Even if an applicant is granted a scholarship, they still must be able to pay for their other expenses.
