Many students want to improve their academic qualifications after graduating from junior college and decide to study abroad. Studying in South Korea has always been widely favored as the most cost-effective option. Some students want to upgrade their academic qualifications as soon as possible, and want to directly skip the undergraduate courses and apply for graduate admission. Admittedly, this is understandable for the sake of saving time and costs.
However, studying in Korea cannot be promoted to a master's degree
Major Korean universities do not accept college graduates to apply directly for master's programs, and must first obtain a bachelor's degree, and can only apply for master's degree on the premise of obtaining a bachelor's degree. Pre-graduates can also submit a pre-graduation certificate in the last semester of the undergraduate program to apply, and submit the graduation certificate in time after being admitted.
For students who are studying in a tertiary institution and want to apply to study in South Korea, it is the most suitable way to apply for a bachelor's degree in South Korea first, transfer to a bachelor's degree, and then apply for graduate school in South Korea after obtaining a bachelor's degree.
There are generally three forms of upgrading in South Korea:
Apply for junior year transfer: Many colleges and universities in South Korea offer undergraduate courses for junior year transfer, and students can obtain a bachelor's degree by studying full-time for 2 years under normal circumstances.
Apply for sophomore transfer program: There are not many schools in South Korea that offer sophomore transfer courses, such as ** University, Korea University of Foreign Chinese, Dongguk University, Kookmin University, etc. After admission, students will be enrolled in the second year, and they can obtain a bachelor's degree by studying full-time for three years.
Apply for senior year transfer: There are many colleges and universities in China that have "3+1" Sino-Korean cooperation projects, and after graduating from junior college, you can go to partner Korean colleges and universities to directly transfer to the senior year, and theoretically you can get a bachelor's degree after 1 year. It should be noted that the number of Korean colleges and universities that can transfer to the fourth year is relatively small, and the majors are relatively limited, so it is recommended to choose according to your own situation.
Don't pursue overnight academic progress, don't pursue the short school system too much, and it is right to work steadily. In the process of studying for a post-secondary education in South Korea, it is recommended to constantly improve your own conditions, strive for better language and academic performance as much as possible, and lay a solid foundation for applying for graduate school in South Korea in the later stage, so as to strive to apply for a better ranked Korean university.
