8. Selection Results and Individual Invoices ■ On the top-right of the university homepage, SKKU Homepage (http://www.skku.edu) → Click

”GLOBAL” → Click “KINGO ID LOGIN” click → Insert your ID & pw → Click “Go” → Click “GLS” → Click “Application/Graduation Requirements Management” → Click “Dormitory” → Click “Dorm info.” → Click on the top-right “Invoice” button

■ Each invoice will have a single-use account number. The account holder name will be the applicant's name. Payment can only be made as an exact amount during the period shown on the invoice.

■ Take care in completing the payment fully, as failure to pay by the deadline will result in automatic cancellation of your admission.

10. Policy for Selecting Residents and Assigning Rooms ■ Students will be given priority in their first preference of dormitory and room type based on

their previous grades. (Date of application submission and fee payment will not affect selection or room assignment.)

■ After assigning rooms based on first preference, if there are still vacant rooms then applicants who were not selected for their first preference but who chose the room types with vacancies as their second preference will be selected based on their grades. Therefore, students who do not choose preferences 2-4 will be last in order of selection.

■ When enrolling at SKKU, students who are guaranteed a dormitory room because of their major or special case must also qualify to be accepted. They will be given priority if they applied and registered in Stage 1 of the application procedure. If they were not selected for their first preference of dormitory because of their grades, they can be assigned their 2nd to 4th preference or a random room.

- 10 -

■ Room assignment will be done after payment. It is policy to put students of different years and majors together. When applying, you select your chronotype (whether you are a morning or evening person) and whether you smoke, but it is not always possible to match similar people, so this will just be used as a guide.

■ In case of applying for the whole winter vacation period after first applying for the winter semester period, it is possible to additionally apply on GLS during the determined period (later the notice will be posted.) Provided that, as the room is newly assigned, it is necessary to move the room again on 9 Jan. (Sat).

■ For managing the energy efficiency and cleaning by floor, though assigned to the same gwan as that of previous semester, it is necessary for all students to move to different rooms.

■ The dorm mate system is not implemented during the vacation (refer to the FAQ of the dorm homepage for further information.)

2. Rules Regarding Submission of Tuberculosis Test Results

■ By the dormitory rules, all residents must submit a clear result of a

tuberculosis check-up performed at the earliest one year(after 24 Feb. 2015.),

for the semester 1, and then get the result of “normal”

- Person who ever submitted the check-up result with the effective period of

under one year when checking in the dorm in the semester 2

■ The check-up result must be submitted on site at the entrance processing

place on the day of check-in (mailing is not allowed.)

■ Tuberculosis can usually be diagnosed by chest x-ray, so just visit a public

health centre, internal medicine clinic, or hospital equipped with an x-ray

machine. The results can take 1-3 days depending on the clinic visited, so

please bear your check-in date in mind and have the health check-up in

advance.

3. Dormitory Fee Refund Policy

■ Leaving the dormitory before the check-in date: If you decide to cancel your

application after acceptance but before the standard check-in date (20 Dec.

2015), you will be refunded the fee (maintenance and meal fees) minus 10%.

■ Leaving the dormitory mid-session: If you decide to leave the dormitory after

the standard check-in date, even if you have not checked in, you will be

refunded the daily rate of maintenance and meal fees based on the number

fees. If fewer than 30 days remain till the check-out date (from 26 Jan. 2016),

there will be no refund.

- 12 -

■ As the winter semester period is under 30 days, dorm fees of the residents

leaving in the mid-term are non-refundable.

■ If you are expelled because of penalty points, or you decide to leave

mid-session because of health or other personal reasons, the same

mid-session refund rule applies.

proving the starting date of your military service, then you will be refunded

in full for the remaining days.

■ The deposit will be refunded in full unless the room is left in a state of

needed to clean, repair or replace things will be deducted from the deposit

and any remainder will be refunded. (Poor cleaning: ￦10,000; key loss:

￦10,000; entry card loss: ￦10,000; damaged/lost equipment: necessary sum
