[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) will conduct one-on-one college admission counseling for the 2021 academic year early admission application strategy for examinees and parents from the 5th to the 6th through non-face-to-face sessions.


Every year, the district has conducted face-to-face one-on-one counseling with students and parents by academic advisors, but this year, due to the strengthened social distancing measures for COVID-19, the counseling method has been changed to non-face-to-face.


The counseling will be conducted through one-on-one matching between participants and counselors via the online platform (ZOOM app), allowing participants to receive personalized academic counseling.


The counselors participating in this session are 10 current and former academic counseling teachers equipped with college admission guidance expertise. They plan to provide comprehensive college admission information tailored to the perspectives of examinees and parents.


Examinees (high school seniors and college applicants residing in Yangcheon-gu) and parents who wish to receive counseling can apply through the district’s website. Currently, 120 participants are being recruited on a first-come, first-served basis. After application, selected candidates will be assigned counseling dates and times by the district staff, and counseling will be conducted non-face-to-face.


Counseling will be held from the 5th to the 6th, with each counseling session lasting 40 minutes per participant, and the counseling fee is free of charge.


A district official stated, “This non-face-to-face counseling was planned to alleviate the mental burden of examinees and parents who may be confused due to changes in the college admission schedule and to help students choose majors that suit their aptitudes.”



Kim Soo-young, Mayor of Yangcheon-gu, said, “This year, examinees are going through a more difficult time than ever due to COVID-19. I hope this personalized counseling will provide information about desired universities and majors and give students time to plan their own career paths. We will overcome anxiety and worries well and work together to achieve good results in this early college admission.”
