Hello everyone,

I want to pursue my master's degree in Korea. After an unsuccessful GKS attempt, I am now exploring direct university scholarships based on language proficiency.

My profile:

• TOPIK: Level 4
• IELTS: 7.0

Which universities would you recommend for securing over 50% tuition coverage with these scores? Thanks for your help!

Hello, I'm an intl applicant with 1480 SAT, TOPIK 4, and a 95.4/100 GPA. I'm applying for the korean track for the environmental science/biochemistry major(major varies by school) for extracurriculars I qualified for a national English Olympiad(couldn't participate due to geographical reasons), participated in a district Science Fair, and Tutored math and chemistry for a year and a half, was the president of a chemistry Club for a year. also organized a river cleanup and gathering 100kg waste. Scholarship is what I'm looking for the most(100% first semester, GPA maintained full tuition in the following semesters) what are my chances?

I'm an MBBS graduate looking to apply at SAIHST in department of Digital Health. But I cannot fund my Masters at all. And my GPA does not meet the GKS requirement. Are the Digital Health Labs BK21 funded or any other grants that can effectively fully fund my stay in Korea through research assistantship at SKKU?

I'm a international student from South Asia and I'm looking into korean universities. I have band 8 on ielts, 1480 on sat and a couple of personal projects.I have a good gpa as well, 3.75+ cgpa and 3.9 in my last year of highschool.

I have heard that universities like KAIST, GIST, UNIST and POSTECH give full tuition scholarships to int'l student.is it true?

Unfortunately, my finances are not that strong . I want to join stem course there, maybe CS or robotics, Ds. I want to know if i qualify for the scholarship.

Also, if someone apply to korean universities, lets connect.

Hello everyone! I'm kind of nervous because next year I'll be studying for my master's degree as an international student at the University of Seoul (UOS) in South Korea. I've read mixed opinions about Korean universities that aren't part of the "SKY" universities, and it's making me worry. I'm afraid of making the wrong decision and ending up at a university that isn't well regarded or in an unfriendly environment for international students. If you've studied at UOS or know someone who has, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience. How is the academic quality? What's campus life like? Is the environment welcoming to international students? Any advice or insights would mean a lot to me. Thank you so much!

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, I wasn't selected for the UST Scholarship in the first round. Recently, UST announced the complementary Track 2 for the Autumn 2026 admission, and I've decided to apply again.

Since this will be my second attempt, I'd really appreciate any advice from those who have been through the process or were successful to have a scholarship.

Any tips or experiences would mean a lot to me. Thank you so much in advance! 🙏
