The student’s academic performance is assessed according to four different criteria: Exams, assignments, attendance, and class participation. Hanyang University’s academic regulations state that class attendance of at least 70 percent is required to earn a passing grade. Each professor, however, may prefer a different attendance policy, and in such case, students should follow the professor’s guidelines. Generally, course performance is graded based on this scale.

|---|---|---|
| A+ | 95 – 100 | 4.5 |
| A0 | 90 – 94 | 4.0 |
| B+ | 85 – 89 | 3.5 |
| B0 | 80 – 84 | 3.0 |
| C+ | 75 – 79 | 2.5 |
| C0 | 70 – 74 | 2.0 |

The credit system in Korea might be different from what is being used in your home country. At Hanyang University 1 credit equals 15-16 contact hours. In most cases the conversion to ECTS is as follows: 1 Hanyang credit equals 2 ECTS.
The transcript will be mailed to your home university by regular mail service. It can be expected approximately one month after the end of the semster. For additional transcripts there will be a charge of US$20 for each, and express airmail will be used.
Unless agreed otherwise with the partner universities, all credits obtained during the exchange semester will be transferred to your home university. Keep in mind that some universities require certain classes or subject which need to be taken in order to transfer the credits.
