What can I study?

Published by Soonchunhyang University. Which of these a scholarship covers is decided by the school.

What do I need?

• Application form; self-introduction and study plan; a recommendation from a professor at your university and an admission recommendation from a professor in the department you apply to (school forms, originals)
• Personal data, academic record check and pledge forms; a health self-check form; two photos 3.5 x 4.5 cm; national health insurance card copy if you have one
• Nationality: family relation certificate, your passport copy, parents' passports or IDs (Chinese nationals: notarised hukou, plus a notarised kinship certificate if it does not list the whole family); ARC copy if you have one
• Degree certificate and transcript (bachelor's for master's and integrated, master's for PhD) with apostille or consular confirmation (China: CHSI English degree verification); language score
• Study-cost pledge (Attachment 8) and bank balance certificate. Full-schooling-abroad applicants add school records and the immigration record; research-scholarship applicants add Attachments 9 and 10-1 to 10-3

THE BANK BALANCE IS 16,000,000 WON OR MORE in your or a parent's name, in Korean or English, filed WITH the application. Fall 2026: issued in May 2026 or later (June for the additional round), money held 6 months or more when you apply.

Research-scholarship applicants whose expected support is below living costs (about 12,000,000 won a year) must show the gap in their own or a parent's name.

Application fee: master's 60,000 won or USD 55; PhD and integrated 70,000 won or USD 65. Overseas transfers in dollars, you pay the bank charges and e-mail the receipt. Not refunded.

Entrance fee 850,000 won, once, on the first bill (waived with TOPIK 4 at application). Tuition is paid at any Shinhan Bank branch; scholarships are taken off the bill. 2026 rates.

Figures here are the international guide's. The graduate school's own 2026 tuition table prints the humanities master's rate as 4,894,000 and swaps the PhD and integrated rates in every band. Ask the Global Support Team which applies.

Dormitory (Hakseongsa): 569,000 won per 4 months (a semester) plus a 10,000 won deposit; free for research scholars except the deposit.

If a parent has died or the parents are divorced, add the death or divorce certificate. An English-issued family relation certificate needs no notarisation.

Expected graduates must file the final degree certificate and a transcript with the last semester before classes start, or the admission can be cancelled.

The guide's last Korean page prints the e-mail as [email protected]; the notice and page 12 print [email protected].
