Do international students get too much scholarship from Korean universities?

Got scholarship from a Korean university?

Top private universities in Korea offer up to 80% tuition scholarship.

Korean students are demonstrating for “Half Tuition,” but private universities have frozen the tuition. Despite tuition freeze for Korean students, they are offering lump-sum scholarship to attract international students. Universities with more international students receive higher scores on International Indicator, and government offers more funding for those with higher International Indicator scores. MEST introduced accreditation system for attracting and managing international students last December, but not all universities are detected.
