Scholarships in Korea Reassessed Each Semester

These are not automatic multi-semester renewals. The reviewed guidance records a new application, appointment, ranking or eligibility assessment for a later semester. Some programmes require the student to submit an application; others are selected by the university or project. Read the application route on each card rather than assuming one process applies to all.

19 programmes from the published database. Application status as of 2026-11-06 (KST); source review dates are recorded individually. Past calls remain labeled by their year and deadline. A policy without dates is not treated as an open call.

Common questions

Do I personally need to submit a new application every semester?

Not always. Some listed programmes require a student application, while others use university ranking, project selection or a new appointment. Check the programme card and official source.

Does receiving the scholarship once guarantee the next semester?

No. Every programme on this page has a reviewed later-semester selection or reassessment step; grades, credits, language scores, appointment status, budget or other conditions may change the outcome.
