It's STEM scholarship at Song Yunnan University in South Korea
0:04
I know a lot of you, a lot of our viewers are interested in studying in South Korea, but it's quite expensive
0:12
Like living costs are quite high, especially this is in Seoul, and Seoul is quite expensive
0:20
And the tuition fees, even though they're not extremely high, they're not on the levels of United States, Canada, or like Australia maybe
0:27
they're still high, higher than Taiwan, for example. Anyway, so this is for master's and PhD students
0:35
It's full tuition. There are no specific nationalities for this one, but again, as you would understand
0:42
from STEM scholarship name, it's for engineering and medicine. And the admission deadline is July 31
0:48
What it covers, it covers up to 100% of tuition fees, and 600,000 South Korean wants as initial settlement fund
0:56

Find the perfect scholarship right now. Oh, okay. Hi, we have a question
1:21
I'm a grade D 11th student and how can I get scholarship in Europe as an African
1:30
Ethiopian student? I have the average 85% out of 100. Again, as you can see
1:38
some of our viewers are asking specifically. First of all, thank you for the amount of information, like specific details you give us
1:48
This makes it really much easier for us to help. you. And as you can see, a lot of these, a lot of these scholarships don't have a specific
1:58
nationality. So in Europe, like Europe doesn't offer that many scholarships as well
2:07
But if you want, like, you can just go here and look into, for example, if you have a specific
2:12
country, you're interested, you might look into those. Like, I'm not sure how competitive
2:19
scholarships you need to be aiming at, targeting with that average. Eamon would give us a better idea on that Eamon What do you think Yeah so Europe is a little bit too big to narrow it down
2:41
But I have met with a lot of recruiting agents in European countries
2:50
And nowadays, the regulations are very, very hard. when it comes to international students
2:58
So right now, getting a scholarship doesn't even guarantee a visa to the country
3:06
So universities no longer offer scholarships for students in countries where they know it's hard to get a visa
3:16
So that's one factor that everyone needs to keep in mind. another thing that you can just note is that education in some European countries is free, even for international students
3:34
Namely in Germany, it's extremely cheap in France, in public universities, of course
3:41
So there's a select number of universities that fall under Compuze France
3:50
So that's the body that governs at these universities, and it's probably around 400 euros per semester that you need to pay
4:03
So I would assume you don't need a scholarship for that. Other than that, there are countries where you can study for free, but you have to do it in their native
4:20
language. So if you want to study in English, you have to pay. And as you said, most universities
4:27
in European countries don't really offer scholarships that often. And when they do, they just
4:35
offer a limited number of scholarships to the top, top applicants. So they're always very competitive
4:45
So if you want to study in Europe you just have to probably go to countries where education is free So you have to cover other expenses of course But I would say that that the best option that is realistically available to most people
5:19
Eam in for scholarships is always good. But there is no guarantee that anyone would get them
5:29
So you'd have to just be within the top 1% of applicants
5:36
And that's not always an option for everyone. Okay, thank you very much
5:45
And again, if you have any other questions, feel free to ask them
5:49
If you want to give us more information, more detail about or ask about any other
5:54
like feature element of your situation, just feel free to ask them
6:01
Again, thank you, Eamon. So, yeah, back to this scholarship. Again, as you can see, 600,000 South Korean ones for initial settlement
6:09
And then again, you can get extra scholarships during the research semester if you're a PhD student
6:16
Not for masters. So it has some eligibility criteria. An incoming international master's or a PhD student at SKKU
6:24
enrolling programs from the natural sciences, engineering, and medical departments, of course, since it's a STEM scholarship
6:30
So, anyway, the school is in, it's in Seoul. As you can see, there are other scholarships as well for other scholarships
6:39
And we can get more information about the school, like deadlines here, tuition fees
6:44
As you can see, it's not as low as Taiwan, which was like about $4,000, $5,000
6:51
This is about like $10,000, $15,000. But this scholarship covers that. But I believe, like, if you want to study in Seoul, your main problem actually, yeah
7:05
I mean, probably, like, living in Seoul would be potentially more expensive than this as a student
7:13
So, yeah, you should have a plan for covering your financial costs in there
7:20
If you want to see the university let just go and look at it here Oops here it is in Seoul this is social sciences this is natural science
7:36
let's look at this one this is the university basically this of course like there are other programs as well
7:42
but this scholarship covers just the stamp programs so anyway this is the school
7:48
and if you want to learn more about the scholarship you can just come here and
7:54
click here and go to the universities page. Again, I believe A.1 says, like
8:01
South Korean universities are kind of better at this, like updating their information on their English websites
8:08
But still, I think it would serve to, let's just go to the original website
8:14
and then using Google Translate to get more information, more updated recent information
8:19
As you can see, this is the scholarship. There are other scholarships as well. Like here we have merit-based one
8:24
for graduates, general scholarships, but this is the one we are talking about
8:29
As you can see, it has, like, you need to be recommended by a professor
8:35
and, like, GPA is kind of high, quite high. So, yeah, here's the eligibility criteria
8:42
Other than that, there's not that much of a information. So, yeah, that's basically it
8:50
It's STEM scholarship at Song-Ging-1 university. Amen, do you want to add anything about this one
8:54
um yes just concerning that last point where i said that uh south korean universities are better at this
9:03
so this is just one example where they're not because uh i think yesterday i checked this
9:11
very scholarship and i went to the korean website and it's no longer there so i think yeah that's
9:20
one example i mean unless i completely missed it but i checked
9:24
their admission guide and it wasn't there. So unless they just forget about it, maybe
9:33
Renamed it, maybe. But yeah, I couldn't see it. I only could see the merit-based scholarships
9:40
that Syrians could get upon admission. But this one, I just couldn't find
9:45
All right. So, like, I guess we need to give a disclaimer here, guys
9:50
The scholarship might not exist anymore. Just be aware of that. but it was here, like at this point
9:57
and the point of this live stream, it was here
