Additionally, outside the quota, 172 students will be admitted through special admissions: 49 graduates from junior colleges or higher, 5 recipients of basic living subsidies and lower-income groups, and 118 pure foreigners.


The selection methods are as follows: for nursing and health-related departments and early childhood education, 80% of the evaluation is based on school records and 20% on interviews; for the aviation service department, 40% school records and 60% interviews; for performing arts and practical music departments, 20% school records and 80% practical skills; for other departments, 70% school records, 10% attendance, and 20% interviews are reflected.


School record grades are calculated based on the grades of subjects relevant to the applied department from the first semester of the first year to the first semester of the third year, and attendance only accounts for unexcused absences.



Kyungbok University has separated the Software Convergence Department into coding major, cybersecurity major, cloud services major, and data analysis major to foster creative convergence talents leading the 4th Industrial Revolution. Applicants can choose up to two preferred majors. Notably, students in this department can change their major after admission.
