There's no particular process as such. Just ask your university to give you an official that states your future date of graduation or the date when you are expected to graduate in future. That's it
Hey Thanku ur videos are very helpful 💜Can u make what all major we can choose in or what majors we can do if we are from arts background like it’s little confusing it would be really helpful if u can make a video on this
Thank you so much!!! These videos really help me keep in check with my application process. :D And where can I join GKS groups who are planning to apply this year? I was a part of one on telegram but it no longer exists.
Thank you your videos are very help full .

For the embassy track, the application has to be submitted directly to the Korean embassy via post. Similarly for university track, application package has to be directly submitted to the respective universities. There's no online application anymore and MHRD is also not involved since last year.
Hello brother, I am currently in graduation, my session is from 21 to 24, so I stood second in the first year and I stood first in the second year exam, the third year exam has not happened, am I not available to fill the scholarship form for post graduation? ❤❤

No need to apostille the high school documents. But do apostille the expected graduation certificate because even though it isn't specified anywhere, it's still a required document
Hey, thank you for making these video. Helps a lot! Just to reconfirm, we don't need to apostille the parents' passport copies, right? We must submit the birth certificate with apostille and the passport copies as supplementary documents without authentication.

Without that I won't be able to apply? As in transcript section its written... "Students who are expected to graduate can apply with expected graduation certificate and must submit the final graduation certificate and transcript before 31st July"
The degree certificate that I have to submit to the embassy before 31 July should that be Origina...or just a colored copy with apostille....also can I get my transcript/or other documents apostolled twice ??
Bro i have a question, NIIED selected in University track 1220 Embassy track 711 Total= 1931 Then why announced like this (Korean government aims invite 2,200 international students for 2024)...???
They aim to invite that number of students but a lot of the students get rejected in the second or third rounds because of documents and other issues. So it's not mandated to be the exact number. It can be less than that.
It is written in the guidelines that "Simple photocopies or notarized copies of the apostilled (or consular confirmed) documents are NOT accepted. However a certified true copy issued by a Korean embassy or a certified true copy issued by a government agency that initially issued the original apostille document are accepted".......Can you please explain this....because if we cannot send photocopies then what do we send ?
It won't work for India because MOFA won't give you a true copy stamp as it will ask you to get the apostille instead. Also the Korean embassy won't entertain you because India is a part of the apostille convention so they will be asking you to get an apostille as well
i have prepared my documents. should i send it to the embassy or should I wait till the embassy in India sets a deadline? and should I register online through sakshat portal before sending my documents?
hello, bhaiya..the marksheet or certificate that I have passed is written in both Hindi and English so can I get this document translated into English also... please solve my confusion... please 🥺

Brother, could you please tell me what the minimum CGPA requirement is to get the GKS scholarship? I have a CGPA of 7.56 in my graduation along with many extracurricular activities. Can I get the GKS scholarship? And please also advise me on which track I should choose according to my marks. I am eagerly awaiting your reply... THANK YOU. @Vatssutra
You need to convert your grades on one of the approved scales and then see whether you are eligible or not depending on every scale's eligibility requirement. Also as far as choosing a track is concerned, if you are sure of the one university you want to attend then go ahead with university track else you can go ahead with embassy track.
Hey i wanted to ask something, so when you had sent your application through courier, did the embassy notified you that they have received the documents through email/something or is there any way if i can email them asking if they have received it.
I didn't apply through embassy track. But I know that applicants don't usually get any confirmation from embassy. Directly results of the 1st selection are released.
The scholarship application doesn't have any application fee. It's all free. Document preparations might cost a bit otherwise there isn't any other expense.
Hello bhaiya, thankyou for this informative video. i wannna know that meri University ne supplementary document manga hai because of a little spelling mistake in my mother's name voter I'd mai aur mere passport me jo meri mother ka name hai usme thodi spelling mistake hai to mujhe us supplementary document or affidavit ko apostille krwana padega kiya? please deadline kuch hi din ki hai bhaiya thoda jldi reply krdena please 🙏🏻
Hello, I want to apply for korean language & literature but there is no division of humanities in gks form so , is it liberal arts ?? Or what should I do
See where that major falls in the excel sheet of universities. And if humanities isn't there then email the university and ask them the same question. They will confirm whether to choose liberal arts or any other one.
Hello, It is written in the guidelines that "Simple photocopies or notarized copies of the apostilled (or consular confirmed) documents are NOT accepted. However a certified true copy issued by a Korean embassy or a certified true copy issued by a government agency that initially issued the original apostille document are accepted". This means that I get the required documents apostilled and then their three photocopies right? Nothing to be done on the photocopies?
For the front side of grade sheet my university mention grade in 10 scale. In back side of grade sheet they mention for percentage conversion multiply the cgpa with 10. Can I use the grade sheet
Just the conversion formula won't be enough. Ask your university to convert the grades into percentage and then give you a converted result. Submit that with the apostille of the original transcript
I want to send my application tomorrow through university track but my apostille documenta have not yet arrive. Can i send the application with all the documents first and then appstille documents.

Hello, i have a doubt,, if you are doing embassy track, we have to take photocopies of the original set of documents right?? But how to take the photocopies of apostilled docs??? Shall we take photocopies of both the apostille side of the apostilled docs??

Hello, Actually, I got my LOR in the first week of February only, and now in the application, they have given the format for the LOR. What should I do? They have mentioned 2 sections, 1 and 2, where the first should be filled out by the applicant, where they have to write their name and major, and the second should be filled out by the teacher, which is a LOR. Should I ask her to write my LOR again, or can I submit it the way it is?

I would suggest contacting NIIED on Tuesday and asking them about the provisional degree certificate. There's nothing mentioned in the guidelines so only they can confirm about it.

Hello I have a question regarding Post service. Can I post my application to the embassy by any courier or do I have to send it by govt post ? Does the embassy accept from local couriers?
Hi , In my transcript university has not mention the cgpa .They just put my DMC for the all semesters with attestation . So , neither it is on cgpa nor on 100 point scale .
You need to submit it on one of the approved scales. So either ask your university to give you a converted one or do it yourself and get it approved from your university
hi, can I submit just my passport as proof of citizenship instead of birth certificate? and do i need to apostille my passport. I do have birth certificate, but the issue is the date on my birth certificate does not matches on my Passport. Can i only submit my passport or i HAVE to submit the birth certificate regardless? An answer would be appreciated, thank you!!
Birth certificate has to be submitted as it's a required document. Passport of the applicant is usually considered an additional document so I would recommend getting the details corrected from the municipality.
Are notarized documents are not valid for the scholarship? And My father is in government service so he doesn't have any voter id card, he uses his I'd card everywhere. So should I need to apostille his I'd card as well?
No ig. I been working on same too and when i enquired, it was told that ID card of ur parents is basically to show the COUNTRY CITIZENSHIP of ur parents and family registration certificate is basically to show ur RELATIONSHIP with your parents. Both are for different purposes. So NO. For the proof of relationship with your parents, yes you can submit the family registration certificate but not as proof of citizenship as its not a legal document to prove identity or citizenship. Please feel free to correct me if its otherwise. But i hope i helped you right as the deadlines are around the corner
Bhaiya it wont be a problem if i submit the passport of my parents also without apostille as citizenship proof right? Their voter id is in re issue period so i cant give that as proof. . .

Hey vatssutra!!! One more doubt I have regarding documents As u know in our country,for initial name starting with'D', people will write it as 'Dh'. So as per the spelling of the initial name will not match with my parents document proof. And my all certificates initial name is same. So will it be a problem??? Or any other way?

Hey, regarding the grade conversion certificate that was provided by my university should I get it apostille or I can just add a colour photocopy because it can’t be issued again? Please help me
Submit the original grade conversion certificate. No need to submit with an apostille. Just submit the original one and not a color copy. If it won't get reissued again then take a color copy and get it authenticated from your university again and then submit that

Hii bhaiya.. Imsana from India🇮🇳.... Agar hame medical se related study karni hai to kya hame cet exam dena padega Korea mein.??? Bhaiya bohot confusion hai please bata do??
For medicine every university might have their own requisites. You need to check their respective websites. As far as I am aware, foreigners don't have to appear for any entrance exam. I might be wrong so it's best to email the university you are interested in
Hey, can i choose three different majors for embassy track? I choose MBA in International business but the three choosen university don't have the same major. What should i do?
No, you can't choose three different majors for three different universities if the chosen universities don't have your major. Try to search for other universities that have your program.
For embassy track one set has to be original apostilled documents and three sets of photocopies. The original apostille can either be on the original documents itself or their color copies.

I completed a diploma in Interior Design after 12th grade ..Now, I want to study in Korea. Am I considered an undergraduate or graduate student? Should I apply for a master's or bachelor's please reply..I'm helpless here
I don't think a diploma will be considered equivalent to an undergraduate degree so you might not be considered for the graduate scholarship. Try applying for the undergraduate scholarship.
You don't have to submit that because they don't ask for such documents. If you still want to submit it then just attach in the extra documents section and no need to apostille it
hey, i am applying for university track, so just in case, my university is a government university and they are not providing with expected graduation certificate so in that case should i get all my marksheets of 4 semesters apostilled? and then send the final certificate afterwards when its completed in June?
bhaiya i dont have my voter id apostille as my proof of citizenship, can i just add my passport copy or my birth certificate will work as my citizenship proof.
There's nothing specified about that in the guidelines so it's best to confirm with NIIED once. But since that would become one of your parents' citizenship proof document and that's a required document, getting it apostilled would work.
There's nothing specified but since expected graduation certificate is a required document it's best to get it apostilled. And transcript is mandatory so you must get it apostilled

Ask the agent who got your documents apostilled.
It is written in the guidelines that "Simple photocopies or notarized copies of the apostilled (or consular confirmed) documents are NOT accepted. However a certified true copy issued by a Korean embassy or a certified true copy issued by a government agency that initially issued the original apostille document are accepted".......Can you please explain this....because if we cannot send photocopies then what do we send ?
It won't work for India because MOFA won't give you a true copy stamp as it will ask you to get the apostille instead. Also the Korean embassy won't entertain you because India is a part of the apostille convention so they will be asking you to get an apostille as well
@@vatssutra So what should I do?....Apostille 4 times?
Embassy track is one set of apostilled original documents and three sets of photocopies
Tqs for the video 😊
I have a question...I am in my final semester... And gks ask for transcript... Should I submit from 1-7 as 8 is still not done?
Yes
Do that
For parents citizenship, what is a parent is deceased. In that case is it OK to give only 1 parents proof? Or another way?
Submit death certificate along with other parent's citizenship proof
i have prepared my documents. should i send it to the embassy or should I wait till the embassy in India sets a deadline? and should I register online through sakshat portal before sending my documents?
Wait for the embassy to release the guidelines and then send your documents. Also from last year they stopped the sakshat portal thing
@@vatssutra thank you ☺️

Brother, could you please tell me what the minimum CGPA requirement is to get the GKS scholarship? I have a CGPA of 7.56 in my graduation along with many extracurricular activities. Can I get the GKS scholarship?
And please also advise me on which track I should choose according to my marks. I am eagerly awaiting your reply... THANK YOU.
@Vatssutra
You need to convert your grades on one of the approved scales and then see whether you are eligible or not depending on every scale's eligibility requirement. Also as far as choosing a track is concerned, if you are sure of the one university you want to attend then go ahead with university track else you can go ahead with embassy track.
Hey i wanted to ask something, so when you had sent your application through courier, did the embassy notified you that they have received the documents through email/something or is there any way if i can email them asking if they have received it.
I didn't apply through embassy track. But I know that applicants don't usually get any confirmation from embassy. Directly results of the 1st selection are released.
Will it take tooo much money??
I cant afford too much money.. Im gonna apply for embassy track... Please tell me brother
The scholarship application doesn't have any application fee. It's all free. Document preparations might cost a bit otherwise there isn't any other expense.
I have birth certificate but it's in hindi and also have it's meaning down of the every sentence in English... Aisa chalega kya??

Hello, I want to apply for korean language & literature but there is no division of humanities in gks form so , is it liberal arts ?? Or what should I do
See where that major falls in the excel sheet of universities. And if humanities isn't there then email the university and ask them the same question. They will confirm whether to choose liberal arts or any other one.
Hello, It is written in the guidelines that "Simple photocopies or notarized copies of the apostilled (or consular confirmed) documents are NOT accepted. However a certified true copy issued by a Korean embassy or a certified true copy issued by a government agency that initially issued the original apostille document are accepted". This means that I get the required documents apostilled and then their three photocopies right? Nothing to be done on the photocopies?
Yes
One original apostilled documents and three photocopies of the same
@@vatssutra thank you, any update regarding the provisional certificate thing? I tried e-mailing them but it seems they'll open tomorrow.
For the front side of grade sheet my university mention grade in 10 scale. In back side of grade sheet they mention for percentage conversion multiply the cgpa with 10.
Can I use the grade sheet
Just the conversion formula won't be enough. Ask your university to convert the grades into percentage and then give you a converted result. Submit that with the apostille of the original transcript
Do we have to submit all the original documents??? Like birth certificate?
Get color copies of original documents and then apostille that
Thanks bhaiya 😇😇
I want to send my application tomorrow through university track but my apostille documenta have not yet arrive. Can i send the application with all the documents first and then appstille documents. Because if i wait for the apostille document it will delay my whole application. And the univeriaty track deadline is 12th april
Usually everything must be submitted all together in one application package
Hello. I'm applying through embassy track. " Name of the institution receiving application" - what should I write here?
The Embassy of the Republic of Korea In India or should I leave it blank? Please reply it's urgent.
I think you should mention the embassy because you are applying through the embassy track
I've searched that seoul national university, yeonsi university, are available for pharmacy... Do i have to give CET exam for studying in Korea with gks schlorship??????
No need to give any exams
Hello, i have a doubt,, if you are doing embassy track, we have to take photocopies of the original set of documents right?? But how to take the photocopies of apostilled docs??? Shall we take photocopies of both the apostille side of the apostilled docs??
Yes, take copies of both sides of apostilled documents
@vatssutra okay got it,, I did the same... thank you 😊
Tqsm for this video.. but i’ve a doubt should we submit the original documents for this process if yes then how will i get back my original documents
Documents once submitted won't be returned back that's why NIIED recommends getting apostille on colour copies of original documents and not directly on original documents
@@vatssutra thank you so much
Hi vats
I have birth certificate so it will be family relationships proof
My parents passport for their citizenship
For my citizenship i have to attach passport separately or birth certificate will be fine?
Birth certificate will do, I guess. If you have a passport then attach it
Hello, my birth certificate needs to be translated in eng , I heard it should be certified translated, what does that mean pls help , can I get it done online?
Certified translation means getting translation from a company that specializes in translation services. You cannot just translate on your own.
Hiii I have a question!
My LOR came sealed from my universities as required but the sheets in the sealed envelope are stapled. Even one of my transcript document came stapled as it has 2 sheets. Will all this cause a problem? I cannot tamper the Lor
Hello, Actually, I got my LOR in the first week of February only, and now in the application, they have given the format for the LOR. What should I do? They have mentioned 2 sections, 1 and 2, where the first should be filled out by the applicant, where they have to write their name and major, and the second should be filled out by the teacher, which is a LOR. Should I ask her to write my LOR again, or can I submit it the way it is?
If it's okay to ask your professor for another letter then do that and submit once you get another one
Ok thank you
I've to apostille three documents since I've my mom's and dad's passport but I've my provisional degree so I'm still not sure what to do. Should I get expected graduation certificate but then I already have my provisional, what do you suggest, I should do?
I would suggest contacting NIIED on Tuesday and asking them about the provisional degree certificate. There's nothing mentioned in the guidelines so only they can confirm about it.
@@vatssutra Okay, I'll try that. Thank you and please let us know if you find anything regarding it.
Hey,i have my provisional certificate...but my university told me they don't give me a transcript with out original degree.....so can i apply without transcript........because i dont have original
Transcript is a required document and applicants must submit that
Is semester exam in South Korean Universities conduct in English or Korean? Like you have to write your semester exam or other research paper in Korean or English??
It differs from course to course and also the medium of instruction. Contact the university for more clarity
Hello, can ijust provide my Passport copy as citizenship proof instead of submitting my birth certificate??
Birth certificate or family register is mandatory requirement
Hello I have a question regarding Post service. Can I post my application to the embassy by any courier or do I have to send it by govt post ? Does the embassy accept from local couriers?
There are no specifications about what postal service an applicant uses. So, you are free to use any you want
@@vatssutra ok thankyou so much
where can I find Korean embassy address to post my documents or any point of contact so I can ask my queries?
Search Korean embassy in India and select the first link that pops up. You can see the GKS notice and all other details there.
Hi ,
In my transcript university has not mention the cgpa .They just put my DMC for the all semesters with attestation . So , neither it is on cgpa nor on 100 point scale .
You need to submit it on one of the approved scales. So either ask your university to give you a converted one or do it yourself and get it approved from your university
@@vatssutra ok
Thanks
@@vatssutra is it okay to give a certificate explaining grading system from the university or do I still need to convert it into GPA scales.
As mentioned in the guidelines, you must submit converted grades or your application will be at a disadvantage during evaluation.
@@vatssutra Thank-you so much
It will take lot of time to take the transcipts. What to do? And also how to convert the grade scale to point 4?
You can ask your university to convert it for you or you can use scholaro website to convert yourself and get it authenticated from your university
hi, can I submit just my passport as proof of citizenship instead of birth certificate? and do i need to apostille my passport. I do have birth certificate, but the issue is the date on my birth certificate does not matches on my Passport. Can i only submit my passport or i HAVE to submit the birth certificate regardless? An answer would be appreciated, thank you!!
Birth certificate has to be submitted as it's a required document. Passport of the applicant is usually considered an additional document so I would recommend getting the details corrected from the municipality.
Are notarized documents are not valid for the scholarship? And My father is in government service so he doesn't have any voter id card, he uses his I'd card everywhere. So should I need to apostille his I'd card as well?
Apostille is mandatory so simple notarization won't work. Also ID has to be a citizenship document and not any other document
In the LOR form, the name of my majors are like Global MBA, Full time MBA. So should I write like this or just write MBA?
A common term like MBA would do because all of them are MBA programs
If I don't have an ID card of my parents, then will the family registration certificate be enough?
No ig. I been working on same too and when i enquired, it was told that ID card of ur parents is basically to show the COUNTRY CITIZENSHIP of ur parents and family registration certificate is basically to show ur RELATIONSHIP with your parents. Both are for different purposes. So NO. For the proof of relationship with your parents, yes you can submit the family registration certificate but not as proof of citizenship as its not a legal document to prove identity or citizenship. Please feel free to correct me if its otherwise. But i hope i helped you right as the deadlines are around the corner
It might work if nationality information is given on that certificate
Bhaiya it wont be a problem if i submit the passport of my parents also without apostille as citizenship proof right? Their voter id is in re issue period so i cant give that as proof.
.
.
And also.. i want to apply to BUFS but the excel sheet shows open major in every department. How can i check available departments please tell me...
It's best to email BUFS and ask them . Also, passports don't need apostille as mentioned in the guidelines.
@@vatssutra thankyou so much 😊😄. Okay i will contact them .
@@vatssutra one more question if you dont mind. I saw lot of people saying gks 2024 is over and 2025 is the one we need to fill up for this year. Is that right? Do i need to fill up form of gks2025 or 2024?
Hey vatssutra!!!
One more doubt I have regarding documents
As u know in our country,for initial name starting with'D', people will write it as 'Dh'.
So as per the spelling of the initial name will not match with my parents document proof. And my all certificates initial name is same.
So will it be a problem??? Or any other way?
Please clarify my doubt🤞🤞🤞🤞
Try to submit an affidavit rectifying the problem and I think it won't be a problem after that
@@vatssutra as my parents doesn't have voter id and passport
So instead of them can I apply their aadhar card and ration card as a proof of citizenship

Hlo I have a doubt regarding notarization. In case of degree certificate, do I have to take a single colour copy and then notarize it and take 3 copies of the notarized one or do I have to make 4 copies and notazrize them all?
Notarization won't work. You need to apostille the documents

Submit the original grade conversion certificate. No need to submit with an apostille. Just submit the original one and not a color copy.
If it won't get reissued again then take a color copy and get it authenticated from your university again and then submit that
Hello,I have a one question regarding transcript. Like if we are applying with the excepted degree certificate than what about transcript as we don't complete the final year of college . Please reply soon it will be really helpful .

Hi
One of my parent is Deceased, so should i get the Death certificate apostilled and submit it for parent proof of citizenship??
There's nothing specified about that in the guidelines so it's best to confirm with NIIED once. But since that would become one of your parents' citizenship proof document and that's a required document, getting it apostilled would work.
Do I have to get the expected graduation certificate also apostilled?
And do i have to get my 1st and 2nd year marksheet also apsotilled
There's nothing specified but since expected graduation certificate is a required document it's best to get it apostilled. And transcript is mandatory so you must get it apostilled
