Important Notes about APOSTILLE Requirements
Since July 14, 2007, the Republic of Korea has been part of the 1961 Hague Convention
establishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. The Convention
provides for the simplified certification or public (including notarized) documents to be used
in countries that have joined the convention. The Apostille ensures that public documents
issued in one signatory country will be recognized as valid in another signatory country.
Applicants whose country is the member of Apostille Convention(104 country members) can
submit Apostille verified documents(Graduation Certificate and Transcript) while applicants
from non Apostille member countries should turn in the documents certified by Korean
Embassy or Consulate located in foreign countries.

1) SeoulTech does not generally acknowledge international schools located in Korea as

foreign schools.
2) All documents should be in English or Korean. Documents in another language should
be accompanied by a notarized English translation.
3) Basically all documents must be original. Should original documents be unavailable,
copies must be authorized by the originating institution before they are submitted.
4) A letter of recommendation must be sealed in an envelope signed on the rear flap by the
recommender.
5) Students whose graduations were pending at other institutions during the time of
application should submit their Graduation Certificates and the Certificates of their
degrees to their departments within 15 days after their enrollment at SeoulTech. Failure
to submit this document may revoke the admission offer.
6) Applicants who will receive a bachelor’s degree or master’s degree should submit proof
of their upcoming graduation or a certificate of studentship. Failure to submit Certificate
of bachelor’s degree or master’s degree within 15 days after their enrollment at
SeoulTech may revoke the admission offer.
7) Transcripts and Certificates from Chinese universities MUST be accompanied by
verification from the China Academic Degree & Graduate Education Development
Center. Refer to the website [Link]
8) Undergraduate transfer applicants and all applicants of Korean origin must submit the
entire record of their Certificate of Entry and Exit issued by Korea Immigration. In cases
of submission of false or unverifiable information (especially those resulting from
multiple passport handling) or failure to submit all of the requisite records may adversely
affect one’s candidacy for acceptance.

8
9) All transfer applicants who have completed at least two years of a degree program at a
four-year university must submit documentation that verifies that their current institution
is equivalent to a four-year university.
10) Foreign students whose parents are not citizens of Korea should submit official
documents indicating parent-child relationship between the applicant and his/her parents
from the students’ government.

become property of SeoulTech and will not be returned to the applicants.
12) Applicants take full responsibility for any problems that might arise due to mistakes
and/or omissions on any application material. If it turns out that submitted documents are
fake, offer of admission will be revoked.
13) Those applicants who were previously admitted to SeoulTech through international
admissions and intend to apply to a Master's or Doctoral program are exempt
from submitting the following: Official certificates of graduation and transcripts from
schools and/or universities outside of Korea. Applicants exempt from submitting any of
the above documents should submit the Certificate of Attendance or Graduation at
SeoulTech instead.
14) Admissions scores remain undisclosed.
15) Korean citizens who hold dual citizenship are considered as ‘Applicants of Korean
Origin’ and they are not eligible to apply as foreign students.

allowed to apply up to six times a year. Application received seventh or after in time
sequence will be cancelled and also admission offer will be revoked.
