Description

Scholarships

GSIS students may pursue scholarships and funds provided under the auspices of the central and local governments as well as the private sector. GSIS also extends partial financial support to students in selective cases to meet costs of extramural intensive academic training and internship programs. In GSIS, many international students will be awarded scholarships (50 to 100 percent of tuition fee) based on their academic performance. In addition, the school also offers a special international scholarship sponsored by other institutions such as POSCO, one of the world’s leading steel companies. Korean students, on the other hand, can be granted research/ teaching assistantships or KIEP scholarships awarded through our school’s Graduate Program in Area Studies (GPAS). Please contact the admissions officer for details.
