3.80

Derivation Chain

Step 1 Expansion of dedicated international student programs at universities like Anyang and Woosong
→
Step 2 University administrative management of international students
→
Step 3 Self-service administrative onboarding tool for international students

Problem

As universities with dedicated international student programs rapidly increase, administrative tasks such as visa status changes, health insurance enrollment, bank account opening, and dormitory applications are being handled 1:1 by department offices. For every 100 international students, 2 full-time administrative staff are dedicated for 2–3 weeks at the start of each semester, with language barriers causing the same questions to be repeated.

Solution

Students input their nationality, visa type, and department to auto-generate a multilingual (Korean/English/Chinese/Vietnamese) checklist of required administrative procedures in order. Each step includes required documents, office locations (with maps), and reservation links, with progress shared to the university office via a dashboard.

Target: International affairs offices and department offices at universities with 100+ enrolled international students, regional universities expanding international student recruitment (participants in the Glocal University 30 initiative)
Revenue Model: Annual Subscription per university: $2,250 (for up to 200 students), additional $600/year per 100 students, first month Free Trial
Ecosystem Role: Education
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
