FAQ

Q. Can I take only the IPA course and skip the INU Core General Education courses?

A. No, the IPA course is separate from the INU Core General Education courses. You are still required to complete three Core General Education courses, regardless of the category.

The IPA course is part of the Basic General Education curriculum and is automatically registered for students who enrolled from the Class of 2023 onward. For freshmen who do not have sufficient Korean proficiency, the department cancels their IPA enrollment in advance. Therefore, students should first complete major-related Korean language courses and take the IPA course after achieving TOPIK Level 3 or demonstrating equivalent proficiency.
