Common pathways for Indonesian students
Common pattern: choose a university language institute → pay first-term tuition for the admission certificate → legalize Indonesian academic records → apply for D-4-1 at the embassy → after improving Korean, apply for D-2 degree admission (status-change rules permitting).

Typical documents for Indonesian applicants
Orientation only for Indonesia files — not a complete embassy list.
- Birth certificates (akta kelahiran) and family cards (Kartu Keluarga) may be needed when parents sponsor costs.

Legalization / apostille path
How Indonesian academic and civil documents are often prepared (confirm each document type):
- Ijazah (diploma) and transkrip nilai (transcripts) from Indonesian schools frequently require Ministry of Law and Human Rights (or successor) legalization steps before Korean institutions accept them.
- Certified translation into Korean or English is standard for immigration packets.
