Schools that cooperate with study abroad agencies must be certified by the Ministry of Education of China or foreign embassies and consulates.
Second, professionalism is the top priority.
The professionalism of Korean study agents is the fundamental guarantee of success. It depends on the success rate of intermediary visas in the past; Whether the consultant has rich work experience and overseas education and life experience; Whether the school information, enrollment and visa information provided are reliable; Can you plan the best study for students?

2. Application documents to be prepared for studying in Korea
1, introduce yourself
Self-introduction is a very important factor in the application for studying in Korea. Its main contents include the growth environment and learning background of learning, the experience of participating in activities inside and outside the school, why to choose this school and major, and so on. If you apply for a research book, you should also focus on describing your activities or internship experience related to the applied professional field during your study. Self-introduction is one of the most important reference materials in the application for studying abroad, and it is also a key opportunity for applicants to fully show themselves. At the same time, self-introduction is also a synthesis and summary of all application materials, just like a main thread that runs through. A good self-introduction can help international students stand out from the numerous application materials and apply successfully.
2. Resume
Generally speaking, only a few universities in Korea require resumes, such as Korea University. However, if you want to have sex with the professor before applying, it is a very good choice to have a resume. The characteristics of resume should be highly summarized, and everyone should extract their own highlights here, so that the professor can leave a deep impression on you. In addition, because Korean universities will strictly stipulate the number of words to introduce yourself, you can put other aspects you think need to be added in your resume. Resume should at least cover personal information, education, honors won, major personal events, published works, participation in community organizations and other abilities and hobbies.
3. Personal statement
1) the direction to be studied;
2) Future career goals.
3) The academic or professional interests and background of the applicant;
If the personal statement is well written, it can greatly improve the chances of applicants getting admission and scholarships, which is an excellent opportunity for applicants. Unfortunately, although many applicants have devoted themselves to IELTS and GRE, their personal statements are often done overnight, perfunctory, lacking in content and full of grammatical mistakes.
Korean universities do not only evaluate the qualifications of applicants through traditional examinations, which does not mean that their admission standards are not strict. When foreign professors decide whether you are the student they want, they want to hear your opinion of themselves first. When you introduce yourself through the application documents, you will find that the opportunities and challenges you face are equally huge.
To write a successful application document, it is not enough to have only those basic writing skills (clarity and conciseness) suitable for any writing type. A good application document requires the applicant to skillfully show his unique personality and experience in a completely different way from other applicants. This is a demanding and often complicated job.
This is true not only for China people, but also for native English speakers. However, we still need to overcome the language barrier in China.
4. Letter of recommendation

Letter of recommendation plays an important role, because in addition to transcripts and language proficiency, letter of recommendation is an objective evaluation material for students.
5. Academic plan
The study plan is the most important for the application documents. It can be said that Korean universities basically know your ability to write papers from the applicant's study plan. In terms of distinguishing majors, most majors, such as sociology, philosophy, business, media and so on. You need to write a study plan. The main purpose is to examine the applicant's language ability. If you can write beautiful Korean documents, you can at least prove from the side that you have the potential to use fluent spoken English, which is very helpful for these professional applications. In the process of writing, you must not write empty words, such as "I will try my best to complete the teaching project after entering school" and "I plan to continue to improve my Korean ability and strive for Band 6 after entering school". How to finish the professor's project and get the result of IK6 needs to be detailed and detailed.
