GRADUATE

Due to the recent situation in the Middle East, normal selection procedures (document authentication, original submission, etc.) are currently facing physical difficulties.

NIIED (National Institute for International Education) and POSTECH have decided on the following plan for the selection process

to maintain continuity in the GKS selection process and minimize any disadvantages for applicants from the Middle East.

Please refer to the following for your selection process.

O Countries eligible for the first round of screening for the General Track University Admissions Program:

United Arab Emirates, Iran, Kuwait

O Changes

1) Document Submission Requirements: Priority review will be given to online scanned copies.

Therefore, please submit the following documents as individual PDF files according to the list number.

• - Required Documents: Submit an online scanned copy of the original handwritten signature.
• - Proof Documents: Submit scanned copies of the prepared documents, even without apostille or consular authentication.

• - Submission of original documents (including consular authentication/apostille) will be deferred until flights resume.
  - However, the submission deadline will be relaxed to extend from immediately after the announcement of final acceptance (scheduled for the end of June) to before the university issues its standard admission certificate (mid-July).
• - Even if you are accepted through the review process before the original documents (including consular authentication/apostille) are confirmed,
• you will be granted "conditional acceptance" status. Final acceptance notification and entry permission will be granted after the originals are confirmed.

2) Implementation of a deferred acceptance system in preparation for a prolonged period.

• If entry is not possible during the entry period due to the continued deterioration of the Middle East situation,
  Application for a 6-month deferral of admission (entry in March 2027) is possible through the recommending institution.
