Since the eligibility requirements vary by screening type, it is necessary to carefully review them before applying.

The Comprehensive Student Record screening evaluates documents mainly based on school activities, including student records and self-introduction letters, assessing academic ability, major suitability, creativity and potential for development, and character comprehensively. Afterwards, an interview is conducted to select successful candidates. For the College of Software Convergence, an in-depth interview is held, consisting of a presentation on a topic given on the day and a Q&A linked to the comprehensive document evaluation. Other colleges conduct general interviews.

The subjects reflected in the Student Record-Based screening are Korean, English, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science for the humanities track, and Korean, English, Mathematics, and Science for the natural sciences track.
