Online Transition for High School Admissions Starting in 2027
202 High Schools Linked, Over 35,000 Signatures Expected

Modusign announced on August 28 that it will provide its public electronic signature solution to the Gyeongsangnam-do Office of Education's 'Online System for High School Admission Application Support,' supporting the transition to online applications for high school admission for the 2027 school year.


In the previous admission process, students and guardians had to print the application and consent forms, hand-sign them, and submit them to the school, after which staff members would verify and store the documents. With the launch of the new online system, third-year middle school students and their guardians are relieved from the inconvenience of visiting the school in person to submit these documents.

Now, users can complete the entire process—including writing the application, electronically signing, and submitting it—in one go without the need for separate membership registration or app installation, simply through various identity authentication methods such as telecom verification. In addition, the system includes a prevention feature for duplicate applications, helping to avoid the risk of being disqualified due to application errors.


School staff members can likewise reduce their workload related to document distribution, collection, and storage, and can greatly enhance the consistency and transparency of their work by standardizing admission procedures, which were previously scattered across multiple schools, into a single system. Currently, 202 high schools are linked to the Gyeongnam admission portal, with an estimated annual usage of 60,000 people, including approximately 30,000 third-year middle school students and their guardians. Modusign expects this to generate more than 35,000 electronic signatures per year.



Lee Youngjun, CEO of Modusign, said, "The Gyeongsangnam-do Office of Education's adoption of Modusign's public electronic signature demonstrates that e-signature can be a key tool in driving digital transformation across all areas of educational administration, beyond just contracts." He added, "We will continue to support digital innovation in education by removing inconvenience for students and parents and improving work efficiency for school staff."
