The University of Missouri may team up with a new university in South Korea that would allow Asian students to earn a degree from the U.S. school.

Missouri hopes to receive a $1 million grant from the South Korean government to develop a degree program in an undetermined field.

George Mason University, Georgia Institute of Technology and the University of Delaware are also considering South Korean partnerships.
