Thank youuu for sharing! Such a precious information. I'm gonna apply next year for AMA+ 2023. Wish me luck 😆❤️ I was wondering, is it okay if the recommendation letters is only given from the lecturer?
Hi, this video has been very helpful to me ever since i saw it!! One thing that i'm still confused about is whether the TOPIK requirement for the chosen major is needed after the language training or before the end of submission. Thank you for sharing such information!
That's a very very good video.. Thank you I'll share it with people who ask me about this year application. I would like to have a permission first to share on my social media. I'm 2nd grade student in k'arts "school of Korean traditional arts"

Hi josh, may i ask how does ama scholarship fund us? Which fees that we need to pay with our own money and which fees that the scholarship will sponsor? And if for few first month, we need to use our own money, roughly, from your opinion, how much do we need to prepare? Thank you in advance.

Hello, thank you for your video, it helped me a lot. I have a question please, I am planning to apply for a video art major and I was wondering if anyone knows a way to send videos for the portfolio ( the size of the videos is large).
You can prepare the video in two ways. 1). Make a shorter version of it. 2). Upload the long version in your google drive. Set share to 'anyone with the link'. Submit the link to the long one too when the online application opens.

Hi Josh I am from Zimbabwe and i got to know about Karts when i was browsing for scholarships and amongst all that i came across, the AMA+ Scholarship was the most favorable. I like the fact that its just an Art centered which i am interested in, specifically filming. I am in my 3rd year here studying Visual Communication & Multimedia Design. We studied Non-linear video editing as a module in my 2.1 semester and that was it. Our school doesn't offer filming as a degree and i really want to major in that Specifically, Directing. i really was happy when i came across this video cz it somehow simplified everything pertaining the whole application process . However, i can not find any Korean Classes here in Zimbabwe :( and that is depressing me a lot since when applying, the TOPIK score is highly required. How can i apply if i am not to find any Korean classes? i would like to apply next year cz that's when i finish the degree i am currently undertaking. My apologies my comment was a bit long. Is it possible to get your WhatsApp active number for more enquiries because i don't always have internet access for the youtube updates and videos and whatsapp is the simplest and cheaper way to communicate. Thanks in Ad!
Hi Josh I loved the video! I have a question that I hope hasn’t been asked relentlessly before and I’m rather confused about it. 1) For department of design, there’s a undergraduate intake for the course “Design” but when I look at the course outline for design undergraduate degree, there’s instead 5 *options* of course outlines given (common, interaction, communication, product and transportation). This confuses me a bit because it makes me unsure of what I should really cover through my portfolio (I know in the form there’s no specific guidelines only the amount of pages needed). So my question is, for “Design” undergraduate should my portfolio be centered around graphic design (web design, poster, illustration and etc) or is it wise to include a little bit of (product design, ux/ui design) into the mix? 2) I’m currently enrolled in a diploma program in a local uni after graduating highschool, but I think by the time I apply for 2024 AMA or next year’s intake I won’t be done yet with my diploma program. Do I just send them my highschool transcripts or partial transcript of my diploma program? - I hope I worded my questions correctly and I wish you a great day !
All those divisions you mentioned are covered in various units. Submit your portfolio based on what you are good at and wants to develop more as a student.
hey, am not sure how grading is done in your country. but you need to have a convincing pass in your high school exams. based on your country's grading.
Can you make a video on the application form because I am still confused and do not know how to fill out the form. Please reply to my message before time runs out.
Hiii! Thank you for this video. I found it very insightful. I have one major question and that is about academic merit. In a case where for instance, the CGPA from my bachelor's degree is not up to what is required as eligible for the scholarship, but I am able to put together an outstanding portfolio, Personal Statement and Study plan, alongside language requirements, do you think my application will be considered?
Hello Josh)) Thank you for ur efforts. I need to make sure about some points: 1- My university scores are not that good and it makes me a pretty nervous. Will that effect on my chance to get the scholarship? Though I'm studying korean and will start preparing for the next year. 2- The documents that need a signature, should I sign by hand then scan it and upload it, or use an electronic signature? What the way the accept them? 3- In the application form they ask about the English language proficiency, should I submit it or it's enough to have a topik? Is it ok to leave it empty? Cause I don't have it I'm working on Topik. 4- What do they mean of subject research in Study Plan? 5- Kindly tell me more about the portfolio, I will apply for filmmaking. Can I send my previous works? Can I make a video showing all my works? Is there a max or minimum for the length of per video? Should it have a subtitle in English or Korean? I really need to know such details. Thanks in advance!
1). regarding this i think you will just have to apply and see what happens. 2). whichever way you use to sign is fine. 3). if you have topik you dont need to submit any ennglish certificate. 4). the subject of your graduation thesis. 5). you can edit highlights of all the films you have made into one video. or send 2 ~ 3 of individual films. subtitle would be great.
@@JoshuaWera19 Regarding the graduation thesis, I don't have one cause my major doesn't required a graduation research. What should I do in this case? - About portfolio, can I submit 2 films and a highlights one? - I need to make sure about the recommendation letters, if I have three strong letters like from the Korean embassy, will that give me more chance? and what about it's date, if u kindly clarify it. - I have a topik level one, and the next test will be on April. Once I couldn't reach level 3, can I submit the level I have with my certificates from seajong institute? if you plz give an advice or tips to reach topik 3. ** Kindly make a video about filling the application, it will help a lot! T Thank you very much for ur efforts.
@@RajaaYasin - Then just explain briefly why. It should be fine. - Yes - Most recent date is preferred. It will most likely have an added advantage. - I think you can.
Hi sir....sorry to bother you again...as I searched more about the language requirements...in FAQ they said that we must acquire the required TOPIK level before applying... If they do not receive any appropriate Korean language proficiency certificate at all, our application will NOT be reviewed regardless the quality of our portfolio or the rest of our application. I really can't find any other way to get the level certification because here in bhutan ...no Korean language center is available and when I called the korean embassy they said we have to go to Bangladesh to test....
sadly, rules changed recently and they made it a bit hard to accept applications without topik. you can try but it's really not guaranteed. all the best.
Like what you said in 02:22, I also have known that the university would give a call during before their final acceptance. Could I know what kind of questions do they try to ask at that time please?
Hello Josh! I really enjoyed your video,you helped me a lot 💕💕 I have a question: Do I have to send my TOPIK level certificate by email to them in July? Or do they make us to do TOPIK test online?
Hi Josh ! Thanks for the video it was really helpful just wondering : -Do you have to be 18 or can I have just finished secondary with passing grades ? -Sort of a obvious answer but I'm half chinese and half polish and was born in England, I have a British and Polish passport so does that mean I can't even apply for the AMA+ scholarship ? That's quite upsetting as k arts seems so cool and has been the only school I've actually looked at but thank you for reading and hopefully answering my questions !
I pursued my Bachelor's in English Literature, but I want to study Masters in Visual Design. For this AMA scholarship they ask for 'portfolio', I want to change my major So how can I submit my portfolio without any knowledge about that major. Can I apply without portfolio.
Hey Josh , Their is problem can you answer Actually in my country topik was to be held on April but it's registration form has been closed and due to some reasons we weren't able to fill it but I am prepared fully as I have been studying for past 7 months and next topik in my country will be held on October 14th So is there any chance like i submit my all documents in this April and put details in my document that I wasn't able to give topik but I am prepared and my portfolio is also well done . So do you think they will clear my screening process and let me give their own language exam and consider me ? ( Is this is case I will be able to submit my topik score before arrival in korea on November)
sorry about the topik situation in your country. pls find out if there's king sejong institute in your country and take a korean test there. you can apply with king sejong institute certificate and submit topik later.
@@JoshuaWera19 hey Josh , Sorry again I am disturbing you I have one more query , I just called king sejong institute of my country and I found out that they don't take any open tests they conduct their own semester wise exams that held once in 6 months for that I have to wait more 6 months from now that will be lose for my this year coz instead of waiting for their semester exam I can take next topik But that will be too late for this year ama So I come to know that there is official website of learn Korean in my country they provide 10 weeks extension language classes according to our level and give certificate at the end of 10th week So I was wondering can i submit that as my substitute for this time ??!
1). Your free time will depend on how many credits you want to take in a semester. In my opinion, it's better to take many credits during initial semesters so that you can have more free time in your senior year. 2). Part-time is possible subject to AMA+ office approval and the immigration office.
Hello! I have to ready all the documents for next year AMA+ asap but I'm not getting responses from mails. I'm still confused on the part that if I have to authenticate the original documents while applying online. OR Authenticate the copies of original documents by issuing that they are same with the originals. If so, Can authenticated copies of documents be sent to karts if the following student is granted for scholarship? Please response asap. Thankyou!
@@JoshuaWera19 yes i think i will be doing that! Can i also ask, bc i have no background in korean, im planning to take a korean language programn from an university for a year and enroll into K'art in 2023. Does it meet the language requirement instead of TOPIK test?
@@zayninseoul Korean language requirement for Film is TOPIK level 3 or King Sejong Institute Korean Korean language certificate level 6. I think 1 year is enough to study and attain any of the two.
I finally found ur channel and i'm so so glad! thank you for these videos. and yeah, i have a question... hahah sorry if i sound dumb, but if i'm a graduate student but want to apply for undergraduate, do i send my grades from high school or uni's/my diploma? and if I did an internship at a government department, could the head of that department make the letter of recommendation? thank you!
first, thanks for following. no question is dumb so no worries. you can apply for undergrad even if you are a graduate student. it's always great to submit all your previously earned certificates from high school going up. yeah head of that dept. can recommend you.
@@JoshuaWera19 also can you please tell how many recommendations letters do we need ? Is it three? Also if someone is applying in dance major should they take one from her dance teacher, School teacher or suppose from a korean language teacher will that do ? How can one get from korean embassy or ODA agencies any idea on that ?
@@simrankaur-vl3bw you need 3 and anybody with reputation in their profession can write it for you. concerning the embassy, you have to visit the one in your country and make a request.
Hello....thanks allot for such avideo but i need an advise....what will should an artist choose between Seoul national university and karts...what will you recommend for doing masters in drawing and painting. And can i apply for gks and ama+ together or i can only apply in one. Can we not choose karts in gks instead of ama+. I am hoping for your kind answer thank you.
hi josh! amazing video! I was wondering if you know if someone who won gks invitation program (credit course) can still apply for ama+ (since it'd have been just as an exchange student and not a degree program)?
3:25 Hello 👋. I'm very curious is it okay to apply even you didn't finish your bachelor degree in the other university? And one me question does it metter study plan wrote in English or Korean?
You can apply without completing your current degree. Korean or English is fine. Choose depending on which of the two languages you are able to express yourself clearly.
Hi! Thank you so much for answering these questions. I wonder to ask, if you pass the initial admissions, does that mean you already have a strong chance to pass the final round?
Hello. I was wondering if there was a community like a facebook group or a whatsapp group one could join before applying for the scholarship in order to be better prepared for it and know of every obstacle that might come your way?
Thank you for such a great video! I just have some questions about the dormitory and its living expenses. 1)How much does it cost? 2)Is food included also in that expense? 3)Is there enough left over from the monthly allowance (after paying for dormitory and food) to live in Seoul?
Hi, thank you so much for posting this video! I know it's been quite a bit since this video was posted but I had a question i was hoping you could answer. My hometown is in The Bahamas, but I have just recently moved to a small town in Canada where I am going to be graduating high school next June, would I be eligible to apply for the program? Thank you in advance! ^^
I think that if you hold a passport from the Bahamas you can apply. Also check one more time if the Bahamas is in the list of eligible countries after the 2024 intake opens.
Hello sir , thanks for this great video... I have a funny question to ask . Pls how do I fill the forms ? Do I print and fill with a biro or do it within my Microsoft office . Thanks in advance
And bro i have one more doubt about the recommendation letter?? Should we have to fill the recommendation letter which has given in the form ?? Or we can give any other recommendation letter which given by teachers?? How that how did you given
you need to send the recommendation letter form as it is given from k'arts to each of your THREE recommenders. they are required to delete any instructions written in the spaces to be filled. after that they need to write about you. these are the only recommendation letters that you can send.
I have secured only 60% in my Bachelors and Masters. So, I am not eligible for this scholarship but if I want to take admission without scholarship then how much money should I need to have? Can anyone tell me please?
This was so helpful. Thank you. Could you please tell me that is there any need for portfolio for the students who are applying for undergraduate degree? I mean students who are applying for master degree certainly have their portfolio done during their bachelor. Then how about school graduated students? Do they need to provide any portfolio?
Hello. Yeah everybody has to provide a portfolio. It's help know that an applicant is an artist and has potential. School is basically for artists only. But undergrad applicants' portfolio doesn't have to be that advanced and well developed as those applying for grad. school.
@@JoshuaWera19 My department hasn't specified the number and time limit for my performance video so how many videos should i send to be on the good side ?
@@jeevanahh you don't have academic background in the major you want to apply for. so, your talent will have to convince the school that you deserve the chance. if it's music you are applying for, make demos or videos and send as portfolio.
Hellooo!! i want to applicate for the another year but i have some questions: 1) How many things can i put in the portfolio? 2) Can i put in the documents the grades that i got from a music school? 3) And the final question is, how can i get my grades in a 100% range tank u so muchh!!
Applying for music? Anyway, regarding how many portfolio for most majors the minimum is 3 projects (But also confirm what are the requirements for the major you are applying for once the new application window opens). | Yes | I don't understand the basis of your 3rd question. But for good grades everywhere I think the secrete remains the same, WORK HARD!!!
Yes i will application for the music school, instrumental music department. the 3rd question is why the aplicant is supposed to convert his notes, and that part is a bit confusing for me, in the form there is a page where a table comes to convert the notes, I don't know how to do that :( is something called CGPA, what is that? thank uuu soo muuuch!
Hi Josh thank you so much for this very informative video. Much needed. I have a query - should all the documents to be notarized and apostilled? Or some of them to be notarized and some of them to apostilled? Thank you again!!
I haven't had time to go through the steps in the portal. As soon as I do I will try and make a short content on it that I hope can assist you and others.

Secondly, is I already have a bachelor's degree and since one can take another bachelor course I was wondering if I still need my high school transcripts or is my KCSE certificate enough together with my undergraduate transcripts?
is it possible to take classes from other majors in karts? i want to apply for design faculty but i am also interested in fine arts, so i don't want to limit myself and take painting classes too.

I hope u see this message and answer^^
@@JoshuaWera19 oh thanks for replying^^ i was curious if i can get scholarship or not cus i cant afford all this expenses without scholarship and i wanted to study Bachelor more than studyin masters degree even tho im studyin BA here
This video was so helpful! Thank you for the info. I have one question regrading the portfolio, If I want to apply for animation is there a limit or minimum number of works I can submit?
Hi Josh, thank you for the video it was really helpful! I had a few questions I wish to get the answers from you: 1) While sending the original documents, do the copies need to be apostilled again if the original transcripts are already apostilled? 2) Is there a possibility that they might refuse to even review my portfolio if I don’t have a topik score (and my department requires it) since it might be considered an incomplete application probably?
Hello, 1). Since you DON'T send original certificates, you are required to make high quality copies of your original certificates. It is these high quality copies that you need to certify then send. 2). If you have a recommendation letter from a higher office your portfolio may be examined even without topik.
Hello! Thank you for this video! I really appreciate it! 😊💖 I just want to ask if I can still apply even if I'm already a 1st year college student here in my country? And if yes, am I going to repeat being a freshman if I passed?
Hello please the major am applying for doesn’t require Any specified language proficiency , Percussion instruments, i want to know if i will be exempted from the korean language test
Thank you very much for sharing these information!! I would just like to ask if it is possible to get the scholarship even if you do not have any award in your application form? Thanks again!!
Ministry of Education in your country (but this can be hard to get), try your district education office. Others can be an art organization you worked with or volunteer with before, head of the school you last attended...
Hi I have a question, I want to apply for Multimedia studies and regarding portfolio it says "no format given", does that mean I don't need one or I can do whatever I like?
Hey if you are international student, do you need to be very fluent in Korean or you can spend 6-12 months trying to learn Korean and learn more once you get there, I dont know if topik 3 is possible in the time
knowing korean is an advantage. if you have been learning korean you can get topik 3 within those 6~12 months. but if you haven't been it's gonna be difficult.
As an applicant you don't have to worry about how your recommenders writes about you. They are professionals and know the format. But mostly they will talk about your artistic talent and personality.

Thank you for ur efforts. I need to make sure about some points:
1- My university scores are not that good and it makes me a pretty nervous. Will that effect on my chance to get the scholarship? Though I'm studying korean and will start preparing for the next year.
2- The documents that need a signature, should I sign by hand then scan it and upload it, or use an electronic signature? What the way the accept them?
3- In the application form they ask about the English language proficiency, should I submit it or it's enough to have a topik? Is it ok to leave it empty? Cause I don't have it I'm working on Topik.
4- What do they mean of subject research in Study Plan?
5- Kindly tell me more about the portfolio, I will apply for filmmaking. Can I send my previous works? Can I make a video showing all my works? Is there a max or minimum for the length of per video? Should it have a subtitle in English or Korean? I really need to know such details.
Thanks in advance!
1). regarding this i think you will just have to apply and see what happens.
2). whichever way you use to sign is fine.
3). if you have topik you dont need to submit any ennglish certificate.
4). the subject of your graduation thesis.
5). you can edit highlights of all the films you have made into one video. or send 2 ~ 3 of individual films. subtitle would be great.
@@JoshuaWera19 Regarding the graduation thesis, I don't have one cause my major doesn't required a graduation research. What should I do in this case?
- About portfolio, can I submit 2 films and a highlights one?
- I need to make sure about the recommendation letters, if I have three strong letters like from the Korean embassy, will that give me more chance? and what about it's date, if u kindly clarify it.
- I have a topik level one, and the next test will be on April. Once I couldn't reach level 3, can I submit the level I have with my certificates from seajong institute? if you plz give an advice or tips to reach topik 3.
** Kindly make a video about filling the application, it will help a lot! T
Thank you very much for ur efforts.
@@RajaaYasin
- Then just explain briefly why. It should be fine.
- Yes
- Most recent date is preferred. It will most likely have an added advantage.
- I think you can.
Hi sir....sorry to bother you again...as I searched more about the language requirements...in FAQ they said that we must acquire the required TOPIK level before applying... If they do not receive any appropriate Korean language proficiency certificate at all, our application will NOT be reviewed regardless the quality of our portfolio or the rest of our application.
I really can't find any other way to get the level certification because here in bhutan ...no Korean language center is available and when I called the korean embassy they said we have to go to Bangladesh to test....
sadly, rules changed recently and they made it a bit hard to accept applications without topik. you can try but it's really not guaranteed. all the best.
@@JoshuaWera19 Thank you sir
Sir i want to ask that what should I do if my high school marks is less than 80 but I am in top 10 in my 12 class so can I apply ?
Like what you said in 02:22, I also have known that the university would give a call during before their final acceptance. Could I know what kind of questions do they try to ask at that time please?
Basically about yourself and your general knowledge of the major you're applying for, Korea, Korean language etc.
@@JoshuaWera19 Deeply thanks for this informations! Thanks for answering my question. 😁
Hello Josh! I really enjoyed your video,you helped me a lot 💕💕
I have a question: Do I have to send my TOPIK level certificate by email to them in July? Or do they make us to do TOPIK test online?
hey, there's no application via email. you need to submit your topik certificate by post together with your other application documents.
Hello, actually I'm not getting how to make portfolio and also I don't have TOPIK now so am I able to apply now? Thanks for your information.
Thanks for the information Josh!
How long did it take you to prepare your application docs?
The documents part alone took about 2 months. But before that I was studying Korean and working on my portfolio for about 6 months.
Do you think AMA scholarship still exists until 2025?
Hi Josh ! Thanks for the video it was really helpful just wondering :
-Do you have to be 18 or can I have just finished secondary with passing grades ?
-Sort of a obvious answer but I'm half chinese and half polish and was born in England, I have a British and Polish passport so does that mean I can't even apply for the AMA+ scholarship ? That's quite upsetting as k arts seems so cool and has been the only school I've actually looked at but thank you for reading and hopefully answering my questions !
I pursued my Bachelor's in English Literature, but I want to study Masters in Visual Design. For this AMA scholarship they ask for 'portfolio', I want to change my major So how can I submit my portfolio without any knowledge about that major. Can I apply without portfolio.
Hola una pregunta como puedo aplicar al Ama 2023 que documentos tengo que enviar a la universidad de artes Ama gracias
Hey Josh ,
Their is problem can you answer
Actually in my country topik was to be held on April but it's registration form has been closed and due to some reasons we weren't able to fill it but I am prepared fully as I have been studying for past 7 months and next topik in my country will be held on October 14th
So is there any chance like i submit my all documents in this April and put details in my document that I wasn't able to give topik but I am prepared and my portfolio is also well done .
So do you think they will clear my screening process and let me give their own language exam and consider me ?
( Is this is case I will be able to submit my topik score before arrival in korea on November)
sorry about the topik situation in your country. pls find out if there's king sejong institute in your country and take a korean test there. you can apply with king sejong institute certificate and submit topik later.
@@JoshuaWera19 do they conduct some institute tests ?
@@sshey8984 YES
@@JoshuaWera19 hey Josh ,
Sorry again I am disturbing you I have one more query ,
I just called king sejong institute of my country and I found out that they don't take any open tests they conduct their own semester wise exams that held once in 6 months for that I have to wait more 6 months from now that will be lose for my this year coz instead of waiting for their semester exam I can take next topik
But that will be too late for this year ama
So I come to know that there is official website of learn Korean in my country they provide 10 weeks extension language classes according to our level and give certificate at the end of 10th week
So I was wondering can i submit that as my substitute for this time ??!
@@sshey8984 You can try that for the sake of application. But also register for topik or king sejong test and submit it as soon as you get a pass.
1-Hii sir How long were you free from university and how long do you study in college ?
2- can be do part time job?
1). Your free time will depend on how many credits you want to take in a semester. In my opinion, it's better to take many credits during initial semesters so that you can have more free time in your senior year. 2). Part-time is possible subject to AMA+ office approval and the immigration office.
Can you pls tell how can I check if I passed the document screening process?
Hello! I have to ready all the documents for next year AMA+ asap but I'm not getting responses from mails. I'm still confused on the part that if I have to authenticate the original documents while applying online.
OR
Authenticate the copies of original documents by issuing that they are same with the originals.
If so, Can authenticated copies of documents be sent to karts if the following student is granted for scholarship?
Please response asap.
Thankyou!

Hey! Thank you for this video!
Im a filmmaker in Singapore and I will be trying my luck this year!
Thank you!!
Just read that Singaporeans are not eligible to apply :')
@@zayninseoul hello. could you try applying as a regular student?
@@JoshuaWera19 yes i think i will be doing that! Can i also ask, bc i have no background in korean, im planning to take a korean language programn from an university for a year and enroll into K'art in 2023.
Does it meet the language requirement instead of TOPIK test?
@@zayninseoul Korean language requirement for Film is TOPIK level 3 or King Sejong Institute Korean Korean language certificate level 6. I think 1 year is enough to study and attain any of the two.
@@JoshuaWera19 what about Yonsei Korean Language Institute? Does it need to be level 6?
Thanks for replying by the way! Really appreciate it!
I finally found ur channel and i'm so so glad! thank you for these videos. and yeah, i have a question... hahah sorry if i sound dumb, but if i'm a graduate student but want to apply for undergraduate, do i send my grades from high school or uni's/my diploma? and if I did an internship at a government department, could the head of that department make the letter of recommendation?
thank you!
first, thanks for following. no question is dumb so no worries. you can apply for undergrad even if you are a graduate student. it's always great to submit all your previously earned certificates from high school going up. yeah head of that dept. can recommend you.
@@JoshuaWera19 also can you please tell how many recommendations letters do we need ? Is it three? Also if someone is applying in dance major should they take one from her dance teacher, School teacher or suppose from a korean language teacher will that do ? How can one get from korean embassy or ODA agencies any idea on that ?
@@simrankaur-vl3bw you need 3 and anybody with reputation in their profession can write it for you. concerning the embassy, you have to visit the one in your country and make a request.
Hello....thanks allot for such avideo but i need an advise....what will should an artist choose between Seoul national university and karts...what will you recommend for doing masters in drawing and painting.
And can i apply for gks and ama+ together or i can only apply in one. Can we not choose karts in gks instead of ama+.
I am hoping for your kind answer thank you.
Both schools are great. You can compare fine details of their curriculums and go with the one that suits your needs. Good luck ~
hi josh! amazing video! I was wondering if you know if someone who won gks invitation program (credit course) can still apply for ama+ (since it'd have been just as an exchange student and not a degree program)?
i think you can~
Theres no topik test in my country? What do i do?
Can I return to my country in the summer with my own money ?
3:25
Hello 👋. I'm very curious is it okay to apply even you didn't finish your bachelor degree in the other university?
And one me question does it metter study plan wrote in English or Korean?
You can apply without completing your current degree. Korean or English is fine. Choose depending on which of the two languages you are able to express yourself clearly.
Hi! Thank you so much for answering these questions. I wonder to ask, if you pass the initial admissions, does that mean you already have a strong chance to pass the final round?
yeah it means you stand a chance.
Your video very helpful, thank you!
-New Subscriber^^
Thanks and welcome :)
I am an engineering final year...but i am interested Film making...what can i do
I have so many detailed question after read the application form and I dont't know where can I get the answers TT
you can leave questions on the videos
Hello. I was wondering if there was a community like a facebook group or a whatsapp group one could join before applying for the scholarship in order to be better prepared for it and know of every obstacle that might come your way?
The only community I know is of current and former students. Maybe you guys in this channel can create one.
Thank you for such a great video! I just have some questions about the dormitory and its living expenses. 1)How much does it cost? 2)Is food included also in that expense? 3)Is there enough left over from the monthly allowance (after paying for dormitory and food) to live in Seoul?
dorm is paid, i believe 600$ per semester. a semester is 3~4 months, so you should have enough money for your upkeep. food is on you.
@@JoshuaWera19 you mean the dormitory is covered by the scholarship?
Hi, thank you so much for posting this video! I know it's been quite a bit since this video was posted but I had a question i was hoping you could answer. My hometown is in The Bahamas, but I have just recently moved to a small town in Canada where I am going to be graduating high school next June, would I be eligible to apply for the program?
Thank you in advance! ^^
I think that if you hold a passport from the Bahamas you can apply. Also check one more time if the Bahamas is in the list of eligible countries after the 2024 intake opens.
Hello sir , thanks for this great video... I have a funny question to ask . Pls how do I fill the forms ? Do I print and fill with a biro or do it within my Microsoft office . Thanks in advance

Can i use coursera korean certificate instead of topik score?

Hi whats the audition process for international students?
And bro i have one more doubt about the recommendation letter?? Should we have to fill the recommendation letter which has given in the form ?? Or we can give any other recommendation letter which given by teachers?? How that how did you given
you need to send the recommendation letter form as it is given from k'arts to each of your THREE recommenders. they are required to delete any instructions written in the spaces to be filled. after that they need to write about you. these are the only recommendation letters that you can send.
@@JoshuaWera19 should any seal is need?? My recommendars are teachers so any firm seal is needed??
@@Swathivlogger they just have to provide information about themselves (if they have no seal).
I have secured only 60% in my Bachelors and Masters. So, I am not eligible for this scholarship but if I want to take admission without scholarship then how much money should I need to have? Can anyone tell me please?
This was so helpful. Thank you.
Could you please tell me that is there any need for portfolio for the students who are applying for undergraduate degree?
I mean students who are applying for master degree certainly have their portfolio done during their bachelor. Then how about school graduated students? Do they need to provide any portfolio?
Hello. Yeah everybody has to provide a portfolio. It's help know that an applicant is an artist and has potential. School is basically for artists only. But undergrad applicants' portfolio doesn't have to be that advanced and well developed as those applying for grad. school.
Thank you very much. Helpful.
@@JoshuaWera19 My department hasn't specified the number and time limit for my performance video so how many videos should i send to be on the good side ?
@@simrankaur-vl3bw normally, its at least 3. not longer than 15 minutes. but you can send many if you want to.
I've degree of science am I still eligible for AMA+ ?
you are. but you have to make your portfolio convincing
@@JoshuaWera19 how can I do that, though I've been practicing music from 5years now (music production) I don't hold any degree In that
@@jeevanahh you don't have academic background in the major you want to apply for. so, your talent will have to convince the school that you deserve the chance. if it's music you are applying for, make demos or videos and send as portfolio.
@@JoshuaWera19 Yes I've released some of original composition on streaming platforms and uploaded some videos on TH-cam too, will that be convincing?
@@jeevanahh Yeah you can apply with those ones. Or make a few more to add if you can.
Hellooo!! i want to applicate for the another year but i have some questions:
1) How many things can i put in the portfolio?
2) Can i put in the documents the grades that i got from a music school?
3) And the final question is, how can i get my grades in a 100% range
tank u so muchh!!
Applying for music?
Anyway, regarding how many portfolio for most majors the minimum is 3 projects (But also confirm what are the requirements for the major you are applying for once the new application window opens).

Yes

I don't understand the basis of your 3rd question. But for good grades everywhere I think the secrete remains the same, WORK HARD!!!
Yes i will application for the music school, instrumental music department.
the 3rd question is why the aplicant is supposed to convert his notes, and that part is a bit confusing for me, in the form there is a page where a table comes to convert the notes, I don't know how to do that :( is something called CGPA, what is that?
thank uuu soo muuuch!
@@vallyuwu20 if you country does not use cgpa in ranking you can use percentage or grades... just as it is used in your country.

Hey there can you please tell what is the duration of masters degree(no. of years) at k-arts and also bachelors if you know ? Thankyou
Hi Josh, thank you for the video it was really helpful! I had a few questions I wish to get the answers from you:
1) While sending the original documents, do the copies need to be apostilled again if the original transcripts are already apostilled?
2) Is there a possibility that they might refuse to even review my portfolio if I don’t have a topik score (and my department requires it) since it might be considered an incomplete application probably?
Hello,
1). Since you DON'T send original certificates, you are required to make high quality copies of your original certificates. It is these high quality copies that you need to certify then send.
2). If you have a recommendation letter from a higher office your portfolio may be examined even without topik.

As an applicant you don't have to worry about how your recommenders writes about you. They are professionals and know the format. But mostly they will talk about your artistic talent and personality.
