🇰🇷 International Schools in Seoul
5 schools, profiled on verifiable public data.
Seoul's international-school market splits cleanly between two college-prep traditions: full IB-continuum World Schools and American schools built on Advanced Placement, with a handful of faith-based options. South Korea has no public inspectorate for foreign schools, so schools are evaluated on verifiable accreditation (WASC, CIS, ACSI) and curriculum authorisation rather than an official quality grade. Many of the strongest options sit in the greater-capital region — central Seoul, Seongnam, and Songdo/Incheon. Fees are published in Korean won and sit among the region's higher bands; several schools restrict enrolment to non-Korean passport holders.
