During the session, instructors from the Busan Academic Development Institute's College Admission Support Team will provide guidance on college admission procedures for multicultural and North Korean defector students using a booklet, followed by a Q&A session, individual on-site consultations for interested students, and arrangements for follow-up consultations.

Teachers from multicultural alternative education institutions and Jangdaehyeon Middle and High School will also participate in the session to strengthen their capacity to guide out-of-school youth from multicultural immigrant backgrounds and North Korean defector students in their academic advancement.
