Entry requirements

For the reviewed AMA+ route, the applicant and both parents must hold citizenship of eligible OECD DAC recipient countries; any dual citizenships must also satisfy the rule. China and Viet Nam appear in the guide’s 2027 list, but nationality alone does not establish eligibility. A high school diploma or accepted expected-graduation evidence is required. Expected graduates must provide the final certificate by 23 February 2027 and prove TOPIK Level 5 or higher for the pre-entry language-training exemption; other training conditions require confirmation. The department row lists TOPIK Level 3 or equivalent. Submit evidence of two or more performances, such as performance portfolios or videos. TOPIK Level 3 or equivalent is listed under the guide’s proof rules. The separate Traditional Dance and Traditional Conducting rows are graduate level and are not additional bachelor options here. Confirm the full document checklist, prior-government-scholarship restrictions and any updated selection instructions. Admission and scholarship selection require individual assessment.

Intake

The reviewed 2027 AMA+ scholarship-admission round is closed: online applications ran 5–15 May 2026, KST. The guide describes the closing time as midnight on 15 May; no clock-time conversion is inferred here. This is evidence of the programme and that admission route, not a new open application window or guaranteed scholarship. Confirm a later AMA+ round or the separate general international-admission route with K-Arts.
