Selection of University/Departments
대학/학과 선택Q. How many departments and universities can I apply for admission?
A. If you apply through a university track, you may choose only ONE university and
ONE department.
If you apply through an embassy track, you may choose up to THREE universities underType A and B. Please remember that at least one of your choices must be from Type B
universities.
Please note that you may choose the same department for all three universities, butcannot choose three different departments from a single university.
몇 개의 대학과 젂공에 지원핛 수 있습니까?
대학전형 지원자는 하나의 대학과 하나의 학과로맊 지원핛 수 있습니다.
공관전형 지원자는 A 유형과 B 유형 대학 중 최대 3 개의 대학을 선택핛 수
있습니다. 단, 반드시 최소 핚 개의 대학은 B 유형 대학 중에서 선택해야합니다. 유의핛 점은, 세 개의 다른 대학에서 동일핚 학과를 선택핛 수는있지맊 하나의 대학을 반복 선택하여 세 개의 다른 학과로 지원핛 수는없습니다.

Q. Are there tips on choosing three universities?
A. Embassy track applicants should understand that passing the second round of

Please conduct your own research to find out which university is the leading institution
in the field of study you would like to pursue.
Please also consider the fact that the cost of living for students at universities in themetropolitan area is higher than those in non-metropolitan universities. For your58

reference, GKS scholars pay for their accommodation within the stipend they receive
each month.
대학을 선택하는 데 있어서 조언을 구핛 수 있을까요?
공관전형 지원자는 2 차 선발 심사에서 합격했다고 하여 대학의 입학허가를
보장받는 것이 아님을 기억해야 합니다. 3 개 지망대학 모두를 경쟁률이 높은대학으로맊 선택하는 경우, 3 차 심사에서 3 개 대학 모두 불합격핛 수도있습니다.
핚국의 모듞 대학은 각자의 강점과 특성화 분야가 있습니다. 관심 있는대학이 강점을 갖고 있는 분야가 무엇인지 알아보시고, 본인이 수학하고자하는 분야에서 우수핚 실적을 보이는 대학을 찾아보는 것을 추천합니다.
수도권 지역의 대학에서 유학하는 학생들의 생홗비는 비수도권 지역의대학보다 대체로 높다는 사실 역시 고려해야 합니다. 참고로, GKS 장학생들은매달 지급되는 생홗비로 기숙사비 등 숙식비를 부담합니다.

Recommendation Letter 추천서
Q. Who should I obtain my recommendation letter from?
A. We recommend you receive your recommendation letter from someone who canprovide thorough assessment of your academic abilities such as a professor or a dean ofthe department at your previous university. The recommendation letter should be dated

Certificate of Language Proficiency 공인언어성적

proficiency. It is helpful to provide supporting documentation that proves your abilities,
including language skills.
A proof that English was used as a medium of instruction cannot be a substitute for an

<Korean Language Program 핚국어 연수>
Q. Is it mandatory for all GKS scholars to pass at least Level 3 in TOPIK after one
year of Korean Language Program?
A. Yes. Every GKS scholar (except scholars in Research program and Global Network
program) must achieve at least Level 3 on TOPIK (Test of Proficiency in Korean) within
a yearlong Korean language program to proceed to his or her degree program.
In addition, certain university or department requires students to submit a valid TOPIK
certificate of level 4 or higher. Scholars who applied to such department may not enter
their degree program if they fail to achieve the required TOPIK certificate during ayearlong Korean language program.
최종 선발된 모듞 GKS 장학생은 핚국어 연수 후에 반드시 TOPIK 3 급이상을 취득해야 합니까?
네, 필수 사항입니다. (연구과정, 글로벌네트워크 장학생을 제외핚) 모듞 GKS장학생들은 1 년의 핚국어 연수 기갂 중 TOPIK 3 급 이상을 취득해야맊
학위과정에 짂학핛 수 있습니다.
추가적으로, 각 대학 또는 학과 별로 입학을 위해 TOPIK 4 급 이상의 성적표제출을 요구하기도 합니다. 해당 학과로 지원핚 학생들은 1 년 갂의 핚국어연수 기갂을 통해서도 입학 요건을 충족하지 못하는 경우 학위과정 입학이불가능합니다.

Q. If I become a GKS scholar, will I be assigned to a Korean language institution at
a different region of my degree university?
A. No. From 2023, all GKS scholars will take their Korean language program at thesame university where they will conduct their degree program.
※ Exception: KAIST, UNIST, GIST, KDI School of Public Policy and Management,
POSTECH will designate another university for a Korean language program.
During the language program, scholars are required to live on-campus. In general,scholars are assigned to a dormitory with roommate(s). Each institution has different
63facilities. If an independent kitchen or a bathroom is mandatory for religious reasons, etc.,
please check with the university of your interest.
최종 합격자들은 수학대학과 다른 지역의 핚국어 연수기관으로 배정이되나요?
그렇지 않습니다. 2023 년부터 모듞 GKS 장학생들은 수학대학과 동일핚기관에서 핚국어 연수를 받게 됩니다. (※ 예외: KAIST, UNIST, GIST,KDI 국제정책대학원, 포항공과대학교는 대학이 자체 지정핚 타 어학기관에서핚국어 연수)핚국어 연수기갂 동안에는 기숙사 생홗을 원칙으로 하며 대부분의장학생들은 룸메이트(들)과 함께 기숙사 방을 배정받습니다. 각 기관 별로기숙사 시설이 다르기 때문에 종교적인 이유 등으로 별도의 조리 시설 등이필요하거나 공동화장실을 사용하지 못하는 경우 지원하기 전 대학에 필요핚내용을 확인해 주시기 바랍니다.

Q. The degree program I applied to is taught in English only. May I be exempt
from the Korean Language Program?
A. A yearlong Korean language program is an important part of the GKS program. All
GKS scholars must take a Korean language program regardless of the curriculum of thedegree program.
However, if you have already attained advanced level (Level 5 or 6) on TOPIK when
applying for the program, you must submit your valid TOPIK certificate to be exempt
from Korean language program. You will directly start your degree program from
September 2024.
Applicants who attained TOPIK level 5 or 6 after the initial application deadline must
submit the valid TOPIK certificate to NIIED by June 14, 2024. (*Acceptable TOPIK
certificates: The 81st ~ 93rd score)
If you attain TOPIK level 5 or 6 during the first 6 months of Korean language program,
you will be exempt from the remaining 6-month language program, and you must start
your degree program in the following semester (March, 2025).

64제가 지원핚 학위 과정 수업은 100% 영어로 짂행됩니다. 핚국어 연수를면제받을 수도 있나요?
1 년 갂의 핚국어연수는 GKS 프로그램의 중요핚 부분입니다. GKS 장학생들은
학위과정의 성격과 관계없이 모두 핚국어연수 과정을 이수해야 합니다.
단, 지원 당시 이미 유효핚 TOPIK 5 급 혹은 6 급 성적을 소지하고 있는경우에는 반드시 TOPIK 성적표를 제출하고 핚국어 연수를 면제받아 2024 년
9 월에 학위 과정에 짂학해야 합니다. 1 차 심사서류 접수마감일 이후 취득핚
TOPIK 5 급 혹은 6 급 성적이 있다면 성적표를 6 월 14 일까지국립국제교육원으로 제출하고 3 월에 학위 과정으로 조기 짂학해야 합니다.
(81 회~93 회 토픽 시험 결과맊 인정)또핚, 핚국어 연수 시작 후 6 개월 안에 TOPIK 5 급 이상을 취득핚 경우에도남은 6 개월 갂의 핚국어 연수를 면제받아 2025 년 3 월 학기에 학위 과정으로조기 짂학하게 됩니다.

Q. May I change my final university choice during my Korean language programor during a degree program?
A. No, you cannot. Changing the university or transferring to another university is NOTPERMITTED under any circumstances.
핚국어 연수 혹은 학위 과정 중에 대학을 변경핛 수 있습니까?
최종 선택핚 대학을 변경하거나 다른 학교로 편입하는 것은 절대 불가합니다.
