As of July 2, 2026, Study in Korea has posted the 2026 GKS-G Final Result Announcement on its scholarship notice board. The official notice covers the 2026 Global Korea Scholarship for Graduate Degrees. It includes attached files for final successful candidates, a separate file for Chinese applicants, and a Notice for 2026 GKS-G Scholars.
The article does not republish the candidate list. The official notice explains that full names cannot be disclosed under privacy rules. Instead, applicants should check candidate number, CS number, Korean language institution, degree university, and the next preparation steps.
What the Official Notice Confirms
The Study in Korea detail page was posted by the GKS Team on July 1, 2026. It states that the final successful candidate file includes candidate number, CS number, program, Korean language institution, and university.
| Item | Confirmed by the official notice | What applicants should do |
|---|---|---|
| Notice | 2026 GKS-G Final Result Announcement | Read the Study in Korea detail page |
| Result format | Candidate-number based | Do not search by full name |
| ID values | Candidate Number, CS Number | Keep both separately |
| Institutions | Korean Language Institution, University | Check whether the two are different |
| Follow-up | Notice for 2026 GKS-G Scholars | Read arrival instructions carefully |
Candidate Number and CS Number Are Different
The notice separates candidate number from CS number. Candidate number is used to find the final result. Embassy Track applicants should check their number from the Embassy Track second-round result, while University Track applicants should check the revised University Track second-round result.
The CS Number is the GKS scholar identification number. The official notice asks scholars to use it when communicating with their university or NIIED.
What Final Scholars Should Do First
Final scholars should first read the attached Notice for 2026 GKS-G Scholars. Then they should separate three tasks: confirm the degree university and Korean language institution, organize contact information using the CS number, and prepare visa and arrival steps as a separate administrative track.
| Timing | Check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Right after result | Candidate number and CS number | Identity and official communication |
| Right after result | Language institution and university | Arrival route and degree route may differ |
| Before email contact | File names, subject lines, ID numbers | Prevent communication errors |
| Before visa preparation | Admission, scholarship, stay guidance | Scholarship selection and visa are separate |
What Future Applicants Should Learn
This announcement is also useful for the next GKS cycle. It shows that GKS is not only about winning funding. Applicants must choose a track, manage numbers and documents, and prepare for institutions, visa, and arrival after the result.
Future applicants should ask which track can support their evidence better. Embassy Track requires attention to country-level selection. University Track requires closer matching with university, department, professor, and documents.
What the next application cycle shows
