KAIST provides on-campus housing options, but room type, eligibility, allocation, application timing and fees depend on the student category and current notice. Admission does not by itself guarantee a particular room. Applicants should read the current KAIST housing guidance and keep a private-housing and deposit contingency budget for Daejeon.

Campus cafeterias and Daejeon provide Korean and international food options, but menus, prices, opening hours and ingredient information change. Students with allergies, religious requirements or vegetarian diets should confirm ingredients directly and learn useful Korean food terms for services outside campus.

KAIST's main campus is in Daejeon and combines colleges, laboratories, libraries, student housing and research facilities. The university's international undergraduate route uses a non-declared first year, with major selection after the freshman year; graduate programmes are organised through colleges, schools and departments. Daejeon is a research-oriented city with four seasons and a lower-density campus setting than Seoul.

KAIST provides campus administration, health, counselling and international-student support channels, while Daejeon has public emergency and transport services. Students should save KAIST and emergency contacts, follow orientation and residence notices, and confirm current insurance and health procedures after arrival. KAIST's Office of Admissions, international-student services, colleges, departments and student-life offices handle different parts of the student journey. New students should follow current instructions for registration, housing, insurance, immigration, orientation and scholarship confirmation. Graduate applicants should also verify supervisor, research and funding arrangements with the department.
