University Scholarships Outside Seoul for International Students

Compare university awards where the reviewed university record lists locations outside Seoul. Incheon and Gyeonggi locations are included: outside Seoul does not mean outside the capital region. Universities with missing locations or a mixture of Seoul and other campuses are excluded from this collection, rather than assuming which campus an award belongs to. Department and campus restrictions still apply.

Common questions

Does outside Seoul mean a lower cost of living?

This page makes no cost comparison. Housing, fees and living costs depend on the campus and your circumstances.

Are mixed-campus universities missing?

Yes. If a university record includes Seoul and another city, this collection excludes it unless a future reviewed campus-specific rule establishes the location. Use the university directory for its full scholarship list.
