Application guide
Where and how do I apply for a scholarship?
Start with the application route recorded for your programme. Admission, a scholarship request and university nomination can be different steps.
Find scholarships for my profile →Scholarship assessment is linked to your admission application.
Separate applicationA scholarship form or a separate call is required.
University nominationYour university forwards a recommendation to the provider.
1. Scholarships linked to admission
Check the admission guide for scholarship assessment, supporting documents and language-score submission. “No separate scholarship application” does not mean an automatic award or that every applicant qualifies.
Keep the admission application deadline and document deadline separate. A TOPIK certificate can have its own submission date.

2. Separate scholarship applications
Follow the scholarship call’s submission method. It may use an online portal, an email, an in-person office visit or documents submitted with admission. An admission application alone may not complete the scholarship request.
Use the scholarship deadline for that call. A closed past call does not establish a new opening.

3. University nomination or recommendation
Apply through the university, college or department named in your route. Its student deadline can be earlier than the foundation’s recommendation deadline. A call from one university is not a nationwide deadline.
Read the provider’s common eligibility together with your own university’s nomination notice. A nomination does not guarantee final selection.

A document checklist to adapt to your call
These are items to check in the official guide, not a universal list of required documents.
- Application form and the correct submission channel.
- Passport, nationality and family-relationship evidence, where required.
- Graduation, enrollment and academic records for your education stage.
- Language certificates, their validity and any separate submission deadline.
- Study or research plan, recommendation letters or portfolio, where required.
- Translation, notarisation, apostille or consular authentication rules.
- For enrolled-student payments: bank details, GPA, credits and other call-specific conditions.
Check whether originals, scans, postal delivery or arrival by the deadline are required. Do not treat the date you mail documents as the arrival deadline.
