Do you Dream or Plan to Study in One of the Top Ranked Universities in the World for Masters/ MPhil, Masters leading to PhD or PhD in Every Field/ Major on Fully funded Scholarships. Then, Seoul National University (SNU), South Korea must be in your consideration

SNU will open its application dates from 09 March, 2020 to 26 March, 2020

There are some fully funded scholarships, you can apply for. But for all of them you need SNU's relevant professor consent to apply. It is not asking for any acceptance letters but professor should agree to accept you in his /her lab for Masters/ MPhil or PhD or MS leading to PhD.

So main funding schemes are

1) Silk Road Scholarship

For Social Sciences & Humanities Students only. Two years duration full funding (Tuition Fee + Monthly Stipend)

You can do Masters/ MPhil on it. If you do PhD, then after two years duration of PhD, you have to ask SNU professor to support you, which SNU professors normally support by their own research funding. You have to contact and get consent of professor that he /she will accept you as his/her research student in lab before you apply for it

Deadline is same as Fall admissions

If duration of funding is less than duration of your degree. The rest of the funding will be given by the professor by his/her own research fund. Which normally SNU's professors give you. You have to contact and get consent of professor that he /she will accept you as his/her research student in lab before you apply for it
