The Catholic University of Korea (President Jong-cheol Won) strives to cultivate ethical leaders equipped with character and competence based on the fundamental philosophy of respect for humanity. The educational goal is to help students learn how to make their own decisions, accumulate a wide range of experiences, and find the true “me” through the operation of the Catholic University’s own curriculum and comparison programs. In addition, we cultivate talented people who will lead the times by carrying out government financial support projects such as’ LINC + (Leading University Development Project in Cooperation Between Industry and Academic and Social World) ‘,’ BK21 Plus’ and ‘Project of university support of contribution to the normalization of secondary education ‘. As a result, it was ranked 13th in Korea in the 2020 QS World University Rankings and received the best A grade in the annual university innovation support project evaluation. The Catholic University is fostering the cultivation of convergent human resources through the convergence of the humanities and science and engineering, as well as the revitalization of employment and startups. In particular, in 2018, it established ‘Startup University’, the first organization in Korea for a curriculum conducive to cooperation between industry and academia. In addition, various educational programs such as the opening of final design courses linked to employment and start-up, the operation of short and long-term internships and field training programs based on the demand of the industry, the exchange of human resources between universities and companies, the family business system of the council for academic-industrial cooperation and the program of education in innovation of the 4th industrial revolution. Lead courses and lead talent development for cooperation between industry and academia.
■ Strategies for occasional support in 2021
This year’s document evaluation performed a blind evaluation.
The Catholic University selects a total of 1,329 students through occasional recruitment for the 2021 school year. It is largely divided into the student department, the comprehensive student department and the essay writing selection, and among them, 489 students are recruited as candidates with excellent potential, which is the representative selection of the student department. There are no other documents to submit apart from the student department and self-presentation. The most important feature of document evaluation is blind evaluation. Since the evaluation is conducted with the name of the examinee, the name of the high school attended, the name of the awarding institution in the award history, and the name of the organization in charge of the service, the examinee should also not write items that reveal personal information in the personal cover letter or the occupation of parents or relatives. The abolition of self-introduction question # 4 is a noteworthy change. Previously, Question 4 was an individual question for each university, but it was abolished because there was a risk of writing violations such as the burden of writing and parenting jobs, reducing the burden on examinees. For those with interviews, such as candidates for excellent potential ability, the recommendation for Catholic leaders, the recommendation for principals, and the selection of special education subjects, interviews are conducted for two days after the SAT on December 19 and 20. . The Catholic University plans to run a mock talk show in August.
Course grades are reflected all through the first semester of the third year
In the student subcurricular assessment, which selects 281 students, and the essay assessment, which selects 175 students, the method of reflecting the student’s subcurricular subject has changed. Previously, grades were reflected excluding grades from the lowest semester among semesters that grades reflect, but this year all grades are reflected through the first semester of the third year. To prepare well for Catholic essay writing, you need to become familiar with repetition and major concepts from textbooks. Since all the presentations are presented in the textbook, it is a difficult task to write an answer if you have faithfully completed the high school curriculum. Also, since the essay guide guides past questions twice a year, it is good to repeat the practice of rewriting answers while solving previous questions directly. If you are applying to the pre-med department or nursing department during the essay selection, you must meet the minimum level of academic ability for the SAT and check the admissions guidelines, as the minimum level of academic ability for the SAT differs for each admission. In addition, the recruiting unit for the recommendation of the school director for comprehensive admission of the student department has been reduced to the department of pre-medicine, department of nursing, department of theology and department of artificial intelligence. In the case of the nursing department, the criteria to satisfy the minimum academic ability for the SAT are eliminated and the liberal arts department is integrated and selected.
2021 Catholic University admissions selection calendar
■ A few words from the Director of Admissions of the Catholic University, Kim Jun-seok
Kim Joon-seok Catholic University, Dean of Admissions
This year, the Catholic University recruits each department from all recruitment units, including bioconvergence. Multiple applications can be submitted on all 6 occasions, but it is important to note that multiple applications cannot be submitted between interview evaluations (Excellent Potential Candidate Evaluation, Catholic Leaders Recommendation Evaluation, Principal’s Recommendation Evaluation, and Evaluation of special education subjects). Also, pay attention to new departments such as the Department of Artificial Intelligence and the Department of Medical Life Sciences, as the first year of hire is the best year for admission. It’s a bit of a tough situation because of Corona 19 this year, but if you put in the time they give it honestly, you will get good results.
■ Tips for approving the senior pass

“In the personal cover letter, we will unravel even the smallest experiences, such as storytelling.”
Jang Eun-hee (Korea History Department 20)
Q. Are there any special reasons for applying to college from time to time?
A. When I entered high school, my grades were not good compared to studying hard due to a distinctly different atmosphere and learning method from high school. However, since I had a clear career goal of wanting to become a history teacher, I did a number of comparisons and activities to compensate for the low grades, such as the Korean history club, the UCC history production, and the Dokdo tour. . In the process, I laid the groundwork for majoring in history in college, and I figured the entrance exams that can demonstrate this are occasional. That didn’t mean that he was lazy to study on time. (Laughs) However, I thought there were too many variables to demonstrate my abilities, such as my condition on the day of the test, the seating arrangements and unfamiliar surroundings, and when I was nervous, I would make mistakes. We decided to apply from time to time considering the features.
Q. How did you enroll in the Korean History Department at Catholic University?
A. Among the various fields of history, I liked the history of Korea the most. I thought the most important thing was to know our story immediately. I decided to apply to the Korean History Department and while looking for the university that opened it, I met the Korean History Department at the Catholic University. Here, Korean history courses are offered, as well as Eastern and Western history, so you can learn about our history in world history and the organic flow of history. Also, the dual core system of the Catholic University is more free and systematic than other schools, so I wanted to take classes in the Department of Technology and Media Content to produce historical content. So when I looked up the entrance exam guidelines, I realized that the greatest emphasis is placed on the suitability of the specialty and I chose the department that is right for me, who has been constantly exploring history.
Q. Please tell us the secret of passing the Comprehensive Evaluation of the Student Division to submit your application investigating your interests.
A. If you have a field of interest, persistence is the most important thing. It’s good to actively explore what programs are available at your school and what you can do with non-campus career-related activities. As mentioned above, examples include UCC production, club activities, visits to historic sites, and writing research reports. Also, show your enthusiasm for your career path by inserting what you learn in each subject into the story and exploring it. In your personal cover letter, it’s good to write down some of the most memorable things about your school life and then write them down based on your feelings. Even in small activities, by describing the points that have affected you as storytelling, you can write a self-introduction letter that stands out from the rest.
Q. What should I be careful about when applying at any time?
A. There are cases where everyone offers downside support due to low confidence and fear of failure, which is a poor choice. You should choose a college and an entrance exam that shows your strengths as much as possible. The values, competencies and qualifications that each university considers important vary widely. Find out what kinds of activities are available at your desired university and department, how the curriculum works, and find the right university for you.
