The scholarship is aimed to provide international students with an opportunity to conduct advanced studies at higher educational institutions in Korea, to develop global leaders and strengthen Korea-friendly networks worldwide. The Government of Korea invites all international students who wish to pursue a master's or doctoral degree in Korea to apply for the Korean Government Scholarships (graduate program).

Re: Korean Government Fully-funded Scholarships For International Students by IbnIbrahim: 10:26pm On Sep 11, 2017 |
mayadellish:It's simple before the photocopies can be certified to be a true copy of the original, you have to present the original copy for confirmation. The original will always be yours. I have done this before, it's a lot easier than you imagine. In fact, I would advice you have about five certified copies in case you might need it for other application 1 Like |
