If you're looking to study in Korea and especially aiming for graduate programs, then you've likely come across Hanyang University as a prominent option. I'm here to break down one scholarship opportunity that could make your dream of learning in Korea a reality—the Graduate International Excellence Scholarship, commonly known as HIES.

Eligibility Criteria

Firstly, you'll be pleased to hear that this scholarship is open to nearly admitted applicants. To be in the running, you must ensure your documents are submitted during the official application period. Also, your GPA from your previous institution needs to be at least 80 when converted to a 100-point scale.

Benefits That Await

Let's talk about the perks. This scholarship reduces tuition and admission fees by 50%, 70%, or even 100%. The scholarship period differs based on your program: Masters for four semesters, Ph.D. for four semesters, and a combined MA-Ph.D. for six semesters.

Important Notes

The application period for the scholarship coincides with the admission period. Keep in mind that the number of grantees may differ every semester. Without a Certificate of GPA converted into a 100-point scale, you won't be eligible for the HIES scholarship, so don't miss out on submitting this crucial piece of documentation.
