❄️ Why 2026-2027 Winter Abroad at Yonsei?

Recently featured in Forbes as one of the 15 Top International Colleges for U.S. Students, Yonsei is a place where history, academics, campus life, and Seoul all come together.

1️⃣ Founded in 1885, Yonsei is Korea’s oldest private university—and in 2013, it became the first university in Korea to launch an international winter program (WAY)

2️⃣ Your K-drama moment
Beautiful buildings, snowy walkways, and a campus right in the middle of Seoul. Many of our past WAY students shared studying at Yonsei was a chance to experience that “living in a K-drama” feeling

3️⃣ More than just academics
Take classes, meet students from around the world, and experience Korea through extracurricular activities

4️⃣ Accessible Location
Located in Sinchon, Yonsei puts you right in the heart of Seoul—with some of the city’s most exciting neighborhoods, food, shopping, cafés, and culture

Three weeks. One winter. A whole new side of Seoul.

Come study, explore, and see what it’s like to be a Yonsei student this winter💙

A glimpse into the classrooms of 2026 YISS✨

From discussions and research to presentations and learning beyond campus, our students took their YISS experience far beyond the textbooks.

📱 “Digital Media and Society in Korea” with Prof. Yong-Chan Kim, took learning outside the classroom with a field trip, giving students the chance to connect what they learned in class with Korea’s media landscape firsthand.

📖 “Asian American Literature & Korean American History” with Prof. James Kyungjin Lee, brought students’ ideas and experiences together through meaningful projects and presentations — creating a space to learn from both the course and one another.

Just a few snapshots of the learning, connections, and memories made along the way at 2026 YISS💙
