Mokwon University Spring 2027 International Undergraduate Round 1 Recruitment… Applications Close October 7 at 9 p.m.

Mokwon University is accepting Round 1 applications on Study in Korea for international freshman and transfer admission to undergraduate programs beginning in March 2027 until 9 p.m. on October 7. After the online application, supporting documents must arrive at the International Exchange Section of the International Cooperation Office by 5 p.m. on October 16. Interviews and practical examinations are scheduled for October 27–28, and results are scheduled for 3 p.m. on November 6.

This admissions round at Mokwon University in Seo-gu, Daejeon is for applicants who, along with both parents, are all foreign nationals; dual nationals are excluded. Language requirements, interviews or practical examinations, and scholarship criteria vary by track and admission unit.

Language requirements for the Korean- and English-track programs

The general Korean track allows applications with TOPIK Level 3 or Mokwon University’s M-TOPIK Level 3. Arts and sports programs use a Level 2 standard. The English track in the Global Convergence Division accepts applicants who meet the guide’s recognized English-language standards, such as TOEFL iBT 71, IELTS 5.5, or CEFR B2, or the guide’s substitution conditions based on academic qualifications obtained in English-speaking countries or regions.

Freshman and transfer applicants must submit different academic records, so after choosing a major and track, applicants can also check the relevant year and academic-qualification section of the 2027 International Freshman and Transfer Admissions Guide.

Interviews: 25 points in each of four areas; Piano requires a performance video

Interviews are conducted in a group-to-group format with multiple applicants and interviewers and are ordinarily held in Korean. The four assessment areas are motivation and study plan, understanding of the major, communication and reasoning ability, and character and attitude, with 25 points each. Regular departments, including arts and sports programs, are evaluated on a 100-point interview. In the College of Music, programs other than Piano use 20 interview points and 80 practical-exam points.

The Piano Division requires applicants to submit an MP4 video of themselves performing one free-choice piece. The video must be filmed so that the keyboard is visible during the performance.

Application fees and admission scholarships for the Korean track

The application fee is KRW 65,000 for programs outside the College of Music and KRW 70,000 for the College of Music. The Sejong the Great Scholarship (B) for Korean-track freshmen and transfer students reduces tuition by 20%, 30%, and 40% for TOPIK Levels 3, 4, and 5, respectively. For arts and sports programs, the corresponding thresholds are TOPIK Levels 2, 3, and 4. Scholarships for the English track will be announced later, so these Korean-track percentages do not apply automatically.

After the online application, original documents must also arrive

The Study in Korea online application period is listed as September 16 through 9 p.m. on October 7. Documents may be submitted in person or by mail to the admissions officer, International Exchange Section, International Cooperation Office, Mokwon University, 88 Doanbuk-ro, Seo-gu, Daejeon. The university may require missing documents to be supplemented and states that an applicant may be treated as ineligible if the required supplementation is not completed by the specified date.

Final enrollment will follow a separate schedule in December. Applicants can use the Mokwon University application page on Study in Korea together with the university’s admissions guide to track the separate stages for the online deadline, document arrival, and interviews.
