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. Follow the exact repertoire for your instrument. Piano requires three works: a specified Classical sonata first movement, an étude and a Romantic-period work. The listed strings have Bach and free-choice requirements; woodwind requires two works from different eras with a ten-minute minimum, while brass requires three works from different eras. Organ, harpsichord and percussion have no prescribed repertoire format in the reviewed cells; a performance submission is still required. Confirm the required unedited recording and DVD format with K-Arts. Artist Diploma rows are separate graduate-level entries and are not this bachelor course. 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.
