The time has come to sign up for your next semester housing!
The Housing website will take applications from October 14-31: housing.igc.or.kr. Details are in the attached file. See the attached poster for details.
This semester there will be one flat rate and students may move in anytime between 16-18 weeks. Payment and TB tests will be due in December.
*Please use your university email and correct University ID number for IGC ID sign up.
ONLY ONE Application Period: There is only one application for all continuing students. This means if you are on campus right now, you need to apply!* Room types (single or double) are not guaranteed so apply early. For those who have completed the Live on Campus Requirement, IGC Housing space is not guaranteed so apply early.
To chose a roommate: use your roommate's full English name and school ID number as it is registered with the school to ensure accurate matching.
To chose a floor: all floor-mates should put the same floor number in the preference question for accurate matching. Remember, lower floors and kitchen floors are more popular, so there is a better chance that you will be put on the same floor if you chose a different floor.
For a better chance of getting your choice of roommate (Dorm A) or floor (Dorm B), apply early and submit ALL necessary documents and payment ASAP. Any request written in Korean will not be considered.
Live on Campus Requirement Change: Living in campus housing is required until 2 of 4 RC semesters as a matriculated student have been completed for SBU students and 2 semesters completed for FIT students. Check out the full policy that will be ineffect as of January 1st for next semester here.
If you plan to apply for an exemption, the deadline for fully-completed exemption applications including application, supporting documentation, and Counselor meeting, is October 25, 2019. Contact rc@sunykorea.ac.kr for an exemption application.
Applying during the semester will help students remember to apply on time while they are still on campus. It also allows for more thorough preparation by IGC Housing and the University for the next semester.
What if I'm not sure if I will be here next semester?
Payment and TB tests are not due until December, so go ahead and apply to save your space! If you change your mind, you can cancel your application before payment is due.
Do I have to pay for next semester right now?
No, payment and TB tests are not due until December.
What if I am applying for the military and don't know if I got into the program?
