The KT&G Foundation for Scholarships has decided to recruit '2026 University Imagination Scholarship Students' to create a stable academic environment for college students in need of financial support.
The 'University Imagination Scholarship Students' are open to current university students in Korea who are basic livelihood recipients, near-poor households, or users of student loans from the Korea Student Aid Foundation. Applications can be submitted via the KT&G Foundation for Scholarships website until August 31.
Selected scholarship recipients will receive up to 3 million won per person and access to scholarship programs.
This year, in addition to existing living expense scholarships, a new type of support has been introduced to help repay the principal amount of student loans for users of the Korea Student Aid Foundation. Applicants cannot apply for multiple types simultaneously. Detailed eligibility criteria and application methods can be confirmed on the KT&G Foundation for Scholarships website.
A KT&G official, speaking to this newspaper by phone, said, "We have expanded our scholarship support methods so that college students can continue their studies with reduced financial burdens and greater stability."
Established in 2008 as a public interest corporation, the KT&G Foundation for Scholarships is conducting various scholarship programs domestically and internationally to support educationally disadvantaged groups and nurture future talent. Since its establishment, support has been provided to approximately 15,000 individuals.
