A guide to applying for a scholarship to study in Korea

Language ability is a "sharp weapon" for applying for a prize, and both Korean and English are popular. Korean universities are paying more and more attention to bilingual (Korean+English) teaching, which means that if Korean is average, you can apply for a good scholarship if you are good at English. The better your grades in Korean, the more you can apply for a scholarship. English is generally above TOEFL 9 and IELTS 6., and you can also apply for scholarships, especially for majors such as finance, trade and diplomacy. It is still necessary to get good grades in English.

both the recommendation letter and the study plan should be grasped. There is no entrance examination in Korean universities, so the selection of students comes entirely from your "paperwork". If our recommendation letter is well written, the study plan is detailed, and a strong desire to learn is expressed, the professor will be interested in you after reading it and will give you the scholarship.

The graduate school has a strong background and scholarships are easy to start with. South Korea is our neighbor, so we will know more about the education system and schools in China. If your graduation school is very famous, or if your graduation school is particularly famous in some way, we can write it down. This will give you extra points and make it easier to apply for a scholarship.
