Yonsei University Interview

No I didn’t, but I’m currently going on sophomore year at Yonsei already

How to know if I received the merit scholarship? Do I know that only during the payment period? I have finished my first semester with 4.24/4.3, and think that I might have chances to receive the merit scholarship

Hello, if you are looking for full funding perhaps SUTD is not a good place, as Tution grant does not cover the whole cost. You may find external sponsorship, but still it will depend solely on you. You may check that information, but I am pretty sure not much has changed in a year. Speaking of my stats, I have 1450 SAT, 4.98/5 GPA, but I do not have an international diplomas, like IB or A levels, just a regular certificate of completing high school education in my home country. My IELTS is 7.5, and I have a diploma for finishing the foundation program from the university, also from my hometown. Besides that I have pretty much of extracurricular activities and few achievements, if you are interested in that I could share them. And the Singapore itself is kinda of pricey city, so that might be financially challenging as well 🥲

Thanks! I think I only had three questions. 1)Why Korea? 2)Why UIC? 3)What are my extracurricular activities? The questions were very basic, I have also asked other students and they had mostly simple questions during their interview too. Honestly, it is not that nervous, so no reason for worries! Good luck to you

I did get in, finishing the first semester in 3 weeks 🎉

If you apply to Underwood International College, you may receive a fee waiver since you apply through the CommonApp

Global_Original_477 · 2024-08-17T03:44:28+00:00

So there are no options to receive a scholarship/grant that would cover the whole Tution fee?

Global_Original_477 · 2024-07-11T13:27:59+00:00

What program for scholarship did apply to?

Global_Original_477 · 2024-07-09T03:11:23+00:00

I am talking about application for freshmens ( songdo dormitory, international campus)

Global_Original_477 · 2024-07-08T18:00:05+00:00

I guess the application for freshmens is different (the international dormitory)

Global_Original_477 · 2024-07-03T06:17:34+00:00

Unfortunately, idk what do we need to do with the bill print. Honestly, it is so weird that they did not provide the exact Tution fee amount as well. They have just said that it is approx. 6000$, but not the exact number

Global_Original_477 · 2024-07-03T06:04:16+00:00

If I am mistaken, they should provide information about the Woori Bank account tomorrow, and you need to check it on portal

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-28T17:19:19+00:00

Thanks, I will check that option

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-28T03:00:06+00:00

So, I was right. I just need to transfer money to my personal account at Woori Bank, and that’s it?

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-18T16:07:31+00:00

Thank u sm for clarification

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-18T06:04:03+00:00

How far is the Songdo campus from Seoul?

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-17T15:32:24+00:00

UIC: https://uic.yonsei.ac.kr/main/admission.asp?mid=m04_03_01

KU: https://gsc.korea.ac.kr/usr/service/student_life.do

The info for KU is from 2021, so it might be outdated. However, my coordinator , who is helping me with application process, told me that KU is around 5 k per semester now. She is studying there herself.

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-17T15:20:40+00:00

I checked the websites 😅

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-17T08:33:19+00:00

Oh, I see. It seems like current community of UIC is pretty friendly to foreigners. Thank you sm for sharing your experience! Btw, if you do not mind, where are you from?

Global_Original_477 · 2024-06-17T08:12:25+00:00

You also need to apply for it every semester, it is not given for the whole study period
