Established in 1969 as the Ulsan Institute of Technology, the University of Ulsan has evolved into a comprehensive institution offering a wide array of programs across disciplines such as humanities, social sciences, business administration, natural sciences, engineering, and more. Situated in Ulsan, South Korea’s industrial hub, the university provides students with unique opportunities for industry collaboration and practical experience.
To support international students, the University of Ulsan offers Entrance Scholarships. These scholarships provide varying levels of financial assistance based on the student’s proficiency in the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK). For instance, students holding a TOPIK level 3 certificate receive a 15% tuition fee reduction and KRW 400,000 towards dormitory fees. Those with TOPIK level 4 are granted a 25% tuition fee reduction along with full coverage of dormitory fees. Students achieving TOPIK level 5 or higher benefit from a 35% tuition fee reduction, full dormitory fee coverage, and a meal plan.
Additionally, international students can apply for external scholarships to further alleviate financial burdens. One notable opportunity is the Global Korea Scholarship (GKS), a program funded by the South Korean government. The GKS offers comprehensive support, including full tuition coverage, airfare, a living stipend, health insurance, and research funding, to students pursuing bachelor’s, master’s, or PhD degrees.
