Admissions Office Overview

Founded in 1912, Seoul Foreign School is an IB World School. It offers a Western-style college preparatory education guided by a Christian philosophy for the children of the international community in Seoul, regardless of race, creed or religion. Student enrollment is at approximately 1500 with over 50 different nationalities represented. In keeping with the school’s purpose of serving the children of foreigners living in Seoul, Korean citizens are not eligible for admission. As space in each grade level is limited, families are encouraged to apply for admission as soon as possible, normally during the preceding school year. Typically, the student turnover rate at the end of each academic year is approximately twenty percent.
