| International Center organizes Buddy Program to help international students and promote interaction between them and Chung-Ang students. Each international student is matched to a Chung-Ang student on a one-to-one basis. Chung-Ang students play roles of friends, Korean language and culture tutors and campus life advisers. The matched students meet regularly and spend 2-3 hours per week together. They develop and keep good relations and friendship in various events and activities. International Center organizes a few activities for them, but each buddy pair is free to organize their own activities.
Roles of the Buddy students
1. Airport Pick-up
2. Assistance on course registration, bank account opening, application for Student ID card
3. Orientation on local transportation
4. Introduction on Korean Culture and Language
5. Various cultural activities
