• We recommend that you discuss your academic goals with a professor prior to composing your study plan.
• This is an opportunity for you to convey information about yourself and your accomplishments that could not be adequately expressed through other portions of the application.
• Include family background, academic achievements, extracurricular commitments and accomplishments, volunteer work, employment experience, and your reasons for applying to SNU. You may even include personal interests such as music, art, sports, etc.

Transcripts, Graduation Certificates, Degree Certificates

• These documents detail your academic achievements and are required from every institution you attended in the past.
• Transcripts must provide a record of the courses you have taken in each year of study along with the final grades. If an institution cannot provide a year-by-year record, then the school official must at least provide us with a list of the disciplines you have studied (i.e. English, Biology, History, etc.) and a summary of your achievements in each.
• Please submit official transcripts issued directly by the institutions you have attended.  You must also submit official evidence of the conferrals of all degrees, diplomas, or professional titles showing the date of the conferrals (month and year).

• Note: We only accept TOEFL scores sent to us directly by ETS.  The official ETS code of SNU is 7972.  You may submit a photocopy of the Examinee’s Score Report for review purposes only, but this is not a substitute for an official score report.
