[2022 Early Admission] Mokpo National University Allows Multiple Applications Up to 6 Types

Kim Hyun-ah, Director of Admissions, Mokpo National University

Mokpo National University will select 1,407 students, which is 83% of the 1,694 new students for the 2022 academic year, through early admission. This year, the early admission process will not apply the minimum CSAT score requirement. However, some departments such as Pharmacy, Nursing, and Land Administration will have academic standards applied.

Mokpo National University conducts faculty-based admissions across 12 faculties, allowing freshmen to choose their desired department within the selectable department range when they become sophomores, regardless of their grades, thereby broadening their major selection options. For example, a student wishing to major in Korean Literature can apply to both the Korean Literature Department and the Faculty of Humanities, and if admitted to the Faculty of Humanities, they can 100% choose the Korean Literature Department in their second year.

Regardless of the recruitment unit, multiple applications are allowed for up to six admission types (the same admission type cannot be applied for multiple times, but up to two applications are allowed for the comprehensive student record screening). After admission, students can transfer to another department within 20% of the admission quota per recruitment unit. Various academic systems are operated, including minors, double majors, and teacher training programs.

The number of students recruited by each early admission type is △ Student Record Screening (academic record + attendance) 970 students △ Comprehensive Student Record Screening (academic record + interview) 405 students △ Practical Skills Screening (Music Department and Physical Education Department) 32 students. Within the Student Record Screening, 856 students are selected through the general academic record screening, 27 through the regional talent screening, 26 through the basic and lower-income class screening, 17 through the specialized high school graduate screening, and 44 through the rural student screening.

The Student Record Screening selects students based on school records (90% academic grades, 10% attendance). The Comprehensive Student Record Screening selects final successful candidates through a two-step process: first, school records (academic and extracurricular activities), and second, an interview for those who pass the first stage.
