KUBS Application

After applying to MIX and receiving your nomination, you'll also need to apply to the partner university! Here I talk about how I applied, the required documents for application, and some tips. 

Required Documents

KUBS' application was completely online, which made submitting documents easy. This won't be the same for everyone, but another KUBS nominee and I received application instructions almost a month later than everyone else. If you find yourself waiting a little longer than the typical time it takes to receive application instructions, don't be afraid to check in with your advisor. However, once you do receive the email, you'll be provided a link to KUBS' application, as well as a KUBS fact sheet which is a comprehensive list of information regarding academic programs, application, course details, academic offerings, accommodation, student services, etc.

  1. Completed Online Application â€‹

  2. One Passport-sized Photo (JPEG file only, file size less than 1MB) - This picture will be used for your KUBS ID card. 

  3. Official Academic Transcript (not the one from STAR - this has to be ordered from the Registrar!)

  4. Letter of Academic Reference 

  5. Health Certificates (forms can be downloaded on the application form)

    1. I scheduled an physical exam with the UH Manoa Health Services (can be scheduled online). ​

    2. Schedule your appointment as soon as possible! The sooner the better! 

    3. Along with KUBS' Health Certificate, don't forget to bring MIX's one as well. The physician can fill out the both for you. 

  6. Statement of Purpose and Goals (1-2 Pages)​​

  7. Copy of Passport Identification Page 

    1. MUST be valid for 6 months​

  8. Letter of Confirmation for Travel Insurance

    1. Can be submitted through email after submission of online application​

    2. This is the mandatory MIX travel insurance

  9. Pledge (Needs to be handwritten)

  10. Bank Statement (for non-Korean passport holders only) ​

    1. If you cannot provide your bank statement at the time of the online application, you must email it to KUBS by a certain deadline​

Within a few weeks, you should receive your Letter of Admission from KUBS via email. However, you're not done just yet! You'll also receive a visa package from KUBS that will help you prepare for the visa application process. 

Have any questions or comments? Feel free to send me a message!

Thank you!
