How to have a competitive GKS profile

GKS is a points based scholarship application. There is a criteria for everything you include in your profile. This means you need to select the appropriate elements to include. You can’t just add anything, especially unrelated to your major, and expect your application to be powerful. You need a focus.

Here are the 3 major things you should include in your application:

1. Certificates/Documents/Awards related to your intended major

2. Certificates/Documents/Awards related to Korea

3. Certificates/Documents/Awards related to social volunteering or humanitarian action

Everything else is just a distraction to your application. GKS needs to see that you are a student with a precise focus on expertise towards your intended career path. If you’re applying for Astronomy, for example, it does not make sense to add culinary certificate in your application no matter how well-rounded you think it will make you look like. This type of narrative works well in the western universities but in South Korea, everything is about merit and you need to show that you are a capable student.
