[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Mokpo National University will select 284 students (17%) out of 1,670 new students through the regular admission process. New students will be recruited in the regular admission groups A and C. The selection criteria and weighting for the general admission based on the CSAT (College Scholastic Ability Test) are 100% CSAT scores. The practical skills-based admission conducts practical exams and recruits students only in the regular admission group C.

Specifically, 75 students will be selected in group A, and 175 students in group C. The practical skills-based admission will select 34 students in group C: 17 in the Department of Music (4 in Vocal Music, 5 in Piano, 7 in Orchestral Instruments, 1 in Composition), 8 in the Department of Fine Arts, and 9 in the Department of Physical Education, based on CSAT scores and practical exams.

The number of recruits may change due to the carryover of unfilled spots from early admissions. Applicants must check the Mokpo National University admissions website before submitting their regular admission applications.

New students admitted under the faculty system are guaranteed 100% choice of their desired major within the range of their primary and secondary majors regardless of their first-year grades when they become sophomores. Faculties available for secondary majors include Humanities, Social Sciences, Public Talent, Basic Sciences, Food & Medicine, Horticulture & Marine Resources, Mechanical, Naval & New Materials Engineering, Energy ICT, Computer & Information Security, Future Society Engineering, Business Administration, and Life Sciences. For example, a student admitted to the Department of Korean Language and Literature in the Faculty of Humanities can choose another major within the Faculty of Humanities in March of their first year or in their second year. Changing to a major in a different faculty is not allowed.

The application period for Mokpo National University's regular admission is from January 7 to 6 p.m. on January 11 next year. Eligibility and supporting documents must be submitted by January 13. Applications can be submitted through the Mokpo National University website.

The practical exam is scheduled for 10 a.m. on January 29, but the schedule may change due to natural disasters such as heavy snowfall or infectious diseases.

The announcement of successful candidates is scheduled for February 7. For more details, inquiries can be made by phone or through the Mokpo National University admissions website.
