MBK Scholarship Foundation announced on the 5th that it is recruiting the 18th batch of scholarship students by the 13th for those expected to enter university in 2025.
The MBK Scholarship Foundation was established in 2007 by Kim Byung-joo, Chairman of MBK Partners, to provide financial support to outstanding students who face difficulties continuing their studies due to economic reasons.
Scholarship recipients receive full support for their admission fees, and if they maintain a GPA of 3.0 or higher per semester, they will receive full tuition support until the completion of their studies (for medical, pharmacy, and Korean medicine schools, support is provided for 8 semesters, after which continued support is decided through a review).
Instead of separate selection conditions or criteria, scholarship students must respect and adhere to the MBK Scholarship Foundation’s value of "Pay it forward," which means returning the help they have received to others.
Over the past 18 years, a total of 202 scholarship students have been produced through the MBK Scholarship Foundation.
Chairman Kim Byung-joo said, "The driving force that can change the world lies in education," adding, "We aim to support our students to fully complete their studies and grow into key contributors to the development of society."
Information on schedules and required documents can be found on the MBK Scholarship Foundation website.
