[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The competition rate for the 2020 regular admission at Chonnam National University was 3.11 to 1.


According to Chonnam National University on the 2nd, a total of 3,965 applicants applied for 1,274 openings (including 6 for the Dental Medicine Graduate School's combined bachelor's and master's program, 9 for the rural student admission transferred from early admission, and 37 for the early employment contract department) in the regular admission Ga and Na groups.


The overall competition rate for all departments at the Gwangju campus was 3.31 to 1 (1,016 openings and 3,368 applicants), while the overall competition rate at the Yeosu campus was 2.31 to 1 (258 openings and 597 applicants).


By department, the Veterinary Medicine Department continued its high competition trend with a rate of 9.94 to 1, surpassing last year's 9.88 to 1, and the Home Economics Department and Cultural Anthropology and Archaeology Department recorded a high competition rate of 7.33 to 1.


For the Medical Department regional talent admission, which was newly established again since the 2017 academic year, 68 applicants applied for 22 openings (including 9 transferred from early admission), showing a competition rate of 3.09 to 1.


The Electrical Engineering Department, which has shown a high employment rate due to the relocation of public institutions, also showed a high competition rate of 5.64 to 1 in the regular admission following the early admission.


This regular admission saw an overall decline in competition rates compared to the previous year at major universities including Chonnam National University, due to a decrease of about 50,000 test takers caused by the declining school-age population.


Chonnam National University will announce the successful candidates for the Ga group at 4 p.m. on the 10th. On the 15th, practical exams for arts and physical education will be held, followed by contract department interviews on the 17th, and the announcement of successful candidates for the Na group on the 23rd.
