Korean Universities Have Stepped Up Their Recruitment of Korean-American Undergraduates

I thought the following from today's insidehighered.com was very interesting. A rare but increasing approach to heritage seeking in study abroad.

"Korean universities have stepped up their recruitment of Korean-American undergraduates, some of whom are turning down top American universities, Joong Ang Daily reported. The Korean universities have started accepting the SAT to encourage applications from Korean-American students who are considering institutions in both countries. A proliferation of English-language programs means that the students need not speak Korean."
