Gyeonggi Office of Education to Open College Entrance Exam Applications from the 22nd... Introducing 'Online Pre-Entry'

The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education will begin accepting applications for the '2025 College Scholastic Ability Test' starting August 22.

The Office announced on the 21st that prospective graduates can submit their applications at their current high schools, while graduates can apply at their alma mater high schools or at the test district (Education Support Office) responsible for their current address until September 6.

This year, the Office is introducing the 'Online Pre-Input System for Test Applications.' Test takers can enter their application information directly using mobile devices at home and then bring the data to the application center to complete the submission. This method reduces waiting times on-site and the hassle of filling out applications on the day of submission.

In particular, prospective graduates and graduates residing in Yongin City can also pay the application fee online after pre-inputting their application. This pilot program is being operated jointly with the Sejong Special Self-Governing City Office of Education, marking a nationwide first.

However, even if test takers complete the application online, they must visit the application center in person to finalize their submission. If online pre-input is difficult, applicants can still submit their applications in the traditional way by visiting their alma mater high schools or the test district application centers.

Meanwhile, test takers should check in advance the ▲required materials for application submission ▲application fees and payment methods ▲eligibility for fee exemption and refund ▲eligibility for test accommodations and other academic recognition ▲whether proxy submission is allowed, and other important application guidelines before visiting the application center.

Kim Seong-jin, Director of Career and Vocational Education at the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, explained, "The 19 test districts under the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education have introduced the online pre-input system for CSAT applications this year to enhance convenience for test takers and improve the efficiency of application management."
