Medical Resources

Navigating healthcare systems in a foreign country can be challenging for students. This webpage provides essential information and resources to ensure the well-being of students during their time in Korea.

 

Tuberculosis Test

IGC Housing requires all residents to submit negative TB test result at the point of check-in. Students are required to provide a written result of chest X-ray test issued within 3 months from the date of check-in. Documents in English and Korean can be accepted.

If you are an international student and having difficulty getting the chest x-ray testing done in your home country, we recommend taking the test in Korea.

Below are the clinics you could visit to get the testing done. You will need to bring your passport. No appointment is needed but expect 10 - 15 minutes of wait time.

  • We highly recommend Songdo Best Clinic as it is closest of the three clinics above from the campus and the clinic staff is well aware of IGC students and its contexts.
