Hwasun-gun Opens Applications for 'Jeonnam Talent Development Scholarship' Starting the 27th

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Gu Chung-gon) announced on the 20th that it will accept applications for the ‘First Half Jeonnam Talent Development Scholarship’ from the 27th of this month to the 15th of next month.

To apply, applicants must visit the administrative welfare center of their local eup or myeon with the application form and submit it in person.

Eligibility requires that both the applicant and their parents have had an address in Jeollanam-do for more than one year as of the announcement date, and applicants must be elementary, middle, high school, or university students. University students are eligible if only the applicant has an address outside the region.

However, university students who have received scholarships from national scholarships, local governments, universities, or private scholarship foundations in the same semester, where the total amount exceeds tuition or the difference is less than 200,000 KRW, are excluded from eligibility.

For the four categories (Academic Excellence, Hope Growth, Multiple Children, Marine Energy), the county reviews the application documents submitted by eup and myeon offices by category and recommends 21 candidates to the Jeonnam Talent Development Foundation according to the selection criteria.

For the Emergency Support for Vulnerable Families category, there is no separate allocation by city or county; applications and required documents are collected and forwarded to the Jeonnam Talent Development Foundation.

The Jeonnam Talent Development Foundation plans to finalize the recipients around June and provide the scholarships.

The scholarship amounts are 200,000 KRW for elementary students, 300,000 KRW for middle school students, 500,000 KRW for high school students, and 1,500,000 KRW for university students.
