This lecture has been organized to help students and parents develop practical application strategies in light of the ongoing changes in college admissions processes. The event will accommodate about 150 participants, including local high school students, college applicants, and their parents.

The speaker for the event will be Kwonwoo Park, head of career and admissions counseling at Ewha Girls’ High School attached to Ewha Womans University. Park, author of the admissions book “Entering College After Eating Watermelon,” has been active in the college admissions field for many years.

The special lecture will cover key information needed for application submissions, including the characteristics of each 2027 early decision admissions process, major changes by university, strategies for both comprehensive and curriculum-based student records applications, how to utilize minimum CSAT requirements, and application tips specific to each university.

Recently, college admissions have become more complex, with annual changes in application quotas, admission schemes, and the student record evaluation process—making accurate information and strategic planning more important than ever. This special lecture is being offered ahead of the 2027 early decision application period, which begins in the second week of September. Registration is available on a first-come, first-served basis through “Yongsan Jin-Hak Pass” until August 3.

District Mayor Kim Kyungdae said, “Accurate information and professional strategies are essential for college admissions, so I hope this lecture will be of practical help to students and parents. We will continue to strengthen our support for public education-based college admissions and, centered around the Yongsan Global Education Support Center, strive to foster future talent and enhance the competitiveness of Yongsan as an education city.”
