Seoul National University of Science & Technology (SeoulTech) International Scholarship
Seoul National University of Science & Technology (SeoulTech) is a national (public) university in northern Seoul focused on engineering, technology, IT, and design — a practical, industry-linked institution distinct from the older Seoul National University. As a national university its base tuition is lower than private Seoul schools, and it offers international-student scholarships of 30%–100% tuition reduction: an entrance band from your academic record, then GPA-linked continuing reductions each semester. For Sri Lankan applicants in engineering, computing, or design who want a technology-focused, more affordable route into a Seoul university, SeoulTech is a sensible target. English-taught graduate programmes accept IELTS or an English-medium degree; undergraduate teaching is largely Korean, so check TOPIK requirements for your course. This is tuition support, not full funding — you cover Seoul living costs, flights, and the deposit, and higher bands are competitive.

International Applicant
Open to non-Korean nationals applying for a full degree at SeoulTech. Sri Lankan citizens are eligible.
Academic Record at Entry
The entrance-scholarship band reflects your prior results — A/Ls for undergraduate, Bachelor's/Master's for graduate entry. Strong Sri Lankan STEM results compete for higher tiers.
GPA for Renewal
Continuing reductions require a minimum semester GPA — merit-maintained, so grades below the threshold reduce the award.
Language Proficiency
English-taught (mostly graduate) programmes accept IELTS ~5.5–6.5 or an English-medium degree; a Sri Lankan MOI letter can evidence this. Undergraduate courses are largely Korean-taught and need TOPIK level 3–4.

Apply to SeoulTech for admission
Submit the international application through SeoulTech's admissions portal for your intake, with transcripts, certificates, study plan, financial evidence, and IELTS/TOPIK results.
Entrance scholarship assessed at offer
Admitted international students are assigned an entrance-scholarship band automatically; your offer states the first-semester tuition reduction.
Maintain GPA to keep the band
Continuing reductions are recalculated each semester on GPA. Consistent grades hold the higher tiers.
Apply for the D-2 student visa
Use your admission certificate and proof of remaining tuition plus living funds to apply for the D-2 visa via the Korean mission serving Sri Lanka.
