[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Sejong University will select a total of 1,022 students through the regular admission this year. It will recruit 31 students in Group A and 991 students in Group B. As in the previous year, 100% of the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) scores are reflected. This is advantageous for applicants who have better CSAT scores compared to their school records.


The arts and physical education departments recruit from both Group A and Group B, but except for the Film Arts Department's Directing and Production major and the Dance Department in Group A, all other departments recruit from Group B. However, the Dance Department only conducts regular admissions recruitment if there are unfilled spots from early admissions, so applicants should be aware of this. Also, since the selection methods and practical exam contents vary by each detailed major, applicants who wish to apply must refer to the admission guidelines.


The specialized high school graduate employee track, designed for graduates of specialized high schools currently employed, selects 10 students through the Hotel, Food Service, Tourism, and Franchise Management Department and 10 students through the Global Culinary Arts Department in Group B via the comprehensive student record screening.


CSAT scores reflect the standard scores for Korean and Mathematics sections, grades for English, and percentile scores for the Inquiry section. The reflection types (and ratios) by field are as follows: for humanities, Korean (30%), Mathematics Type B (30%), English (20%), two social inquiry subjects (20%); for natural sciences (excluding the Creative Software Department), Korean (15%), Mathematics Type A (40%), English (20%), two science inquiry subjects (25%); for the Creative Software Department, Korean (35%), Mathematics Type A or B (35%), English (20%), and two inquiry subjects excluding vocational inquiry (10%). The Creative Software Department awards an additional 5% of the mathematics reflection score to applicants who took Mathematics Type A. Applicants must have taken the corresponding reflection subjects to be eligible.



For humanities and natural sciences recruitment units excluding contract departments, as in the previous year, additional points are awarded based on the Korean History subject grade, so to obtain full additional points, applicants must have a Korean History grade of 3 or higher. The military scholarship special admission belongs to the natural sciences field but students who took the humanities CSAT can also apply.
