(** Read Full Post **)
They are mostly for Sciences and Engineering and Medicine (non-clinical) and Public Policy/Management etc
-------------------------------------------
Dear all, Apply asap for Spring 2022 Scholarships for Masters and PhD in Korean Universities, which are opened now or opening soon, therefore prepare to apply for them from now using the description given below. Read below full description with links given (*Please)
---------------------------------------------
What is this Korean Scholarship ?
In Korea, most of the scholarships are offered by the professors. Professors hire you in the lab and you work on company projects. Projects are based on research and development of products etc of companies. Therefore, your tuition fee, living expenses are paid by the professors using the money of companies.
-----------------------------------------------------
Why early applying ?
The Korean universities will start taking admissions soon for Spring 2022, a few have opened already. But students from different countries other than Pakistanis, try to contact and impress professor earlier than opening of admission process of Spring 2022. Therefore, if you(Pakistanis) apply late, then may be professor would already have chosen a student for his lab from another country than Pakistan. So, it good to that you start now to find and and contacting the professor, in order to secure your seat in the professor's lab
----------------------------------------
Why to go to Korea ?
As you have read before, that companies pay to professors for doing R & D of them. Few such companies in Korea are Samsung, LG, POSCO, Hyundai, Daewoo, Daelim, Lotte, Hynix etc. These are just few companies out of thousands companies in Korea. So just imagine that if you study in Korea, you will have chances to work on projects offered by such big and small companies. When you will graduate with degree from Korea, you will have chances to get job in such big companies there. Many Pakistanis are working in these companies there. Also, if you do not want to do job after doing your masters from Korea. Then you will have many research publications in conferences/journals in your masters due to working on different projects of companies and publishing your results, which will enable you to get top PhD positions anywhere in the world of your choice. Even after PhD from Korea, you will have better profile than people who do PhD from other countries in the world due to good publications. So, going to Korea opens new Horizons for you

-----------------------------------
But how to apply for it then ??
Read carefully all details below with links and then comment, if you have confusion/questions
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Just few things first (Read the guides also in given below links, after it)
1) Almost many professors are giving scholarships in these universities (list given below) and others (unknown to me) . Find your relevant professors by given below ways and contact them.
2) Search relevant professors using google.com and search one by one with keywords such as University name + your major + Korea (do not write full university name) such as
Sookmyung Chemistry Korea, use such keywords or follow the guide whose link is given http://goo.gl/LFpnA6
List of some universities with their deadlines are given below. But you can get the list from previous KGSP(GKS) 2021 list of old universities as well. More than 60 universities in the list (*** Note that GKS is not offered for Spring 2022. It will be offered in Fall 2022)
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1EXTyG6qmybL0WIz8Ub2U-FwlBjoDv7dt?usp=sharing
3) Open university websites, departments, using google translator and find your relevant departments and professors
4) Use this link below and go through all posts even of last year. As professors from last years may be hiring as well
https://www.facebook.com/groups/scholarships.pk/search/?query=korea
5) See this link as well and go through all posts
http://bric.postech.ac.kr/myboard/list.php?Board=job_recruit&selflevel=1
OR again find the professors by the using google methods as mentioned above.
6) Email and contact professor with guidelines as given below in guides and send cover email and PDF research CV to professors. As soon as he gives positive reply by finding you by your description a best candidate for his lab. Apply for admissions in university.
**MOST Important thing : Do NOT ask Korean Professor for any acceptance letter as you ask Chinese professors. If you ask Korean Professor for acceptance letter, he may not understand and your chances of selection will be finished. Korean professors acceptance is like a consent of him in email, in which he says that he will cover your tuition fee and expenses. University admission process do not need it. As you get apply for admission after professor's consent in email. You will mention professor's contacts in admission process/documents. Which university will consider and give you admission on priority. If you get admission, then you will show it to professors who would have promised already to cover your expenses and then you will go to Korea on his money.
7) It is your hard work and trying. I can give you resources and guide you the way. So now it is your turn to work hard on it, so it is all your effort. Just find the professors.
***Korean professors like the students who want to go for MS/MPhil leading to PhD degree. SO if you have plans for PhD after bachelors, then do go for MS leading to PhD degree there.
8 ) IELTS & TOEFL is requirement of many universities. But you can try to apply with English proficiency certificates. If you are lucky, then they will accept you without IELTS score. But if deadlines are far, then you can try to do IELTS or TOEFL. If you have no time, then apply with proficiency certificate and hope for the best. Even if you get the admission in Korean university without IELTS or TOEFL, you will have to do IELTS or TOEFL later as Korean Embassy in Pakistan now asks for it to issue you the visa
** These are a few universities I compiled, you can look for yourself other universities in Korea

Things to Understand
Professor Scholarship
You have to find and contact professors relevant to your field in universities. How ??
Read details here in below links of guides. In every case you have to be in contact with professors.Here you do not need acceptance letters. But Here in Korea, you should be in contact with professors and professors must have accepted you as his future MS or PhD student in his lab in emails and agreed to fund your studies fully.
