Doctoral	30 credits
Joint	54 credits

※ Even though you register to audit a Major or credit course, it will count towards the number of credits you are allowed to take per semester. Those who are taking an additional semester will be charged for the extra credits. (For detailed information, please refer to “5. Important Notes”)

※ Audited or supplementary courses with credits do NOT count towards the credit requirement for graduation.

2) Directed Research Course (Non-credit)

Under Article 2 of the Graduate School Thesis Regulations and Policies (submission requirements), students whose proposal has been accepted (or will be accepted in the upcoming semester) must enroll in Directed Research courses.

C. Retaking a course

※ You are allowed to repeat a course once if you wish to achieve a better grade.

2) The above rule does not apply:

￭ if you register to “audit“ the course (on a Pass/Not pass basis)

￭ if the course is a "supplementary" course (Undergraduate) whose title is the same as that of Graduate School

￭ if different departments offer courses with the same title

3) PhD students: if you register for the same course you took while doing your Master’s at Yonsei University Graduate School, it will NOT be considered as a retake. However, it might not fulfill requirements toward graduation, so please check with your department first.
