The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education will hold a briefing session on the occasional admission of sports colleges at the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education Student Gymnasium in Jamsil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, from 5 p.m. on July 14.
The briefing session consisted of a fruitful program such as an overview of the admission process of major sports universities, occasional admission of major sports universities, analysis of entrance examination results and acceptance strategies for special sports competitors, and mentoring college students. The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education has held an annual 'Student Athlete Career Advancement Talk Concert' to support student athletes' admission to university sports specialists from 2023, and since last year, it has held a 'Sports College Advancement Briefing' for all students interested in entering sports colleges, which has received great response from the school field.
A parent who participated in the first briefing last year said "Consulting by private education companies was not even able to take the plunge due to the cost burden, but the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education held a briefing session for free, which was very helpful. Based on the data collected and analyzed by current high school teachers, it was good to explain it in an easy-to-understand manner. I hope that the briefing session will be further developed so that we can build trust in public education" expressed his feelings.
This briefing session consists of various contents reflecting a wide range of interest in entering sports universities, from high school seniors who are about to enter the college in 2026 at the same time as the opening of the second semester, to elementary school students who are about to become athletes. Starting with a general overview and guidance on the trend of occasional admission for those who are interested in athletic careers, it analyzes the results of entrance exams by various types of admission such as comprehensive, curriculum, special, and essay writing and practical skills in the student department and guides the passing strategy.
Considering that parents of student-athletes do not know exactly about the sports specialist system, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education's sports specialist system will be guided, while time will be provided to analyze the entrance examination results of university sports specialists in each sport and guide the admission guidelines. Mentoring for college students, which is held at a counseling booth for each school prepared by students from major sports universities, is also a place where you can hear vivid advice for career choices.
The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education will release all data related to this briefing session online through the homepage of the Seoul School Sports portal. If it is used together with the analysis data of the mock evaluation record of the physical education practical test in the Seoul Future Sports Talent Center, which has already been shared, it can also be expected to improve the school field's college entrance in the physical education field. The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education expects that if the private education-oriented field of guidance for college entrance can be converted to public education, it will help parents reduce private education costs and improve school education reliability.
Anyone, including elementary, middle and high school students, parents, and teachers in Seoul, can attend this briefing session. By July 6, we will receive online participation applications on the Seoul School Sports Portal homepage, and if the number of applicants exceeds 2,000, we will flexibly adjust the number of applicants based on the order of application.
Chung Geun-sik, superintendent of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, said, `We have many physical education teachers with professional education and guidance skills. Focusing on them, policies such as the specialized school of physical education curriculum and the Seoul Future Sports Talent Center are successfully guiding public education-oriented physical education entrance examinations. We will continue to make efforts to ensure that students and parents are fully prepared for college entrance within the school without the burden of private education expenses" expressed his will.
