Uljugun in Ulsan to Provide 1.7 Billion Won in University Scholarships Using Nuclear Power Plant Support Funds

Uljugun in Ulsan will implement the "2025 Uljugun University Student Scholarship Program," which uses nuclear power plant support funds to help reduce the tuition burden for local university students.

Now in its tenth year, this program provides university students with scholarships intended as living expenses, based on nuclear power plant support funds. The goal is to alleviate tuition burdens and foster local talent.

Eligible applicants are university students who, as of the announcement date (July 21), have themselves or whose parents have resided in Uljugun for at least one year. Academic requirements are a GPA of 2.5 or higher for general scholarship applicants and 2.0 or higher for welfare scholarship applicants (including basic livelihood security recipients, lower-income households, legally recognized single-parent families, and students with severe disabilities). Recipients are selected based on academic performance.

To expand the range of beneficiaries, a biennial application system is in place, so those who received scholarships in 2024 are excluded from this year’s application. However, welfare scholarship applicants may apply every year.

This year, Uljugun plans to select a total of 2,288 students: 2,158 general scholarship recipients and 130 welfare scholarship recipients. The scholarship amounts are 700,000 won for general scholarships and 1,500,000 won for welfare scholarships, totaling 1.7 billion won.

Applications can be submitted from August 11 to 26 on the Uljugun Office website after identity verification. Uljugun will conduct a first-round online review and a second-round document review, and the final recipients will be announced on October 17.

For more details, refer to the general announcements section on the Uljugun website or contact the Nuclear Power Plant Support Team in the Energy Policy Division.
