Entry requirements

A bachelor’s degree is required, or completion by 28 February 2027. Eligibility follows either the route for a non-Korean applicant with two non-Korean parents, or the separate route for applicants who completed the entire school and university curriculum of at least 16 years abroad. Confirm the nationality and education documents for your route. Type B requires TOPIK Level 4 or above only; a major may require a higher level. Confirm accepted test formats and score validity, and obtain university approval before relying on an exception. Submit the application form with the financial guarantor’s signature, a photo, passport evidence, undergraduate transcript and diploma, a study plan of roughly two to three A4 pages, and a recommendation from your graduating institution. The current admission table does not mark preliminary professor consultation as mandatory for this department. Confirm any additional requirements for your chosen area or supervisor. Confirm the original-document, translation and authentication checklist for your country and school, including the specific checks for Chinese qualifications. The guide requests financial evidence of at least USD 20,000, separate from course fees. The English table asks for the balance to be maintained for at least one month; the Korean list also specifies a freeze of at least one month and a certificate issued within the previous month. Confirm the bank format and the date used to assess that issue window. Applicant, parent or spouse accounts are listed; family guarantors need relationship evidence and signed guarantor details. External scholarship recipients must provide scholarship evidence, and a separate exception is listed for an Ajou faculty financial guarantor. Confirm which financial documents apply to your case. Confirm any funding or assistantship conditions with your department. Scholarships require separate assessment. Admission does not guarantee a visa, scholarship or employment.
