The Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education will operate a "2027 University Early Admission Counseling Center" in advance of the September university early admission application period. The center will be open for 10 days, from July 29 to August 8, in the Education Safety Comprehensive Situation Room, located on the basement level 1 of the main building of the Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education. The counseling center will be divided into two sections: arts and physical education, and general consulting. Each student will receive individualized, one-on-one counseling lasting 45 minutes.


The general counseling center will be in operation for a total of eight days: from July 29 to August 1 and from August 5 to 8. It is open to Daegu-area seniors currently enrolled in high school, high school graduates, and those who have passed the qualification exam. Consulting hours are from 5:00 p.m. to 8:20 p.m. on weekdays and from 9:00 a.m. to 4:20 p.m. on Saturdays. During consultation, potential universities and departments are analyzed based on the June College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) mock exam results and the student record, and individual strategies for early admission applications are developed for each student.

The arts and physical education counseling center will be open for two days, from August 3 to 4, and is intended for students from the third year of middle school to the third year of high school enrolled in schools in the Daegu region. Six consultation booths will be operated per day, accommodating 24 students per day. Applications will be accepted by major, and counseling will reflect each student’s aptitude and level of preparation. Consultations are based on practical skills materials: for music, a performance video within the last three months or a musical score; for fine arts, approximately five photos of works prepared within the last six months; for physical education, the student record is utilized.


Forty-five counselors will participate, including members of the University Admission Counseling Support Team of the Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education (including the Daegu Metropolitan University Admission Guidance Teachers Group of the Korean Council for University Education) and teachers from the Arts and Physical Education Career Guidance Research Association. They provide practical guidance such as university and department suitability analysis based on each student’s records and field of interest, preparation directions by admission type, and key points for document screening and interview preparation.



The Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education stated, "Counseling is more effective when students confirm their preferred universities and departments in advance and participate together with their parents."
