Hi,

My daughter (19) is applying to Yonsei University KLI to study for several months, so she'll be moving from the U.S. to Korea. Are there any banks in particular you might recommend that are close to the KLI International campus?

Best regards,

Steve

There are branches of the major Korean banks all over the city, including near or on campus.

I think its best that you opt for an international bank so that the currency difference does not have a huge impact on you. Considering that she is coming to Korea for studies, she will have her expenses and the fees alone is going to be a lot.
It is just a suggestion though.
