Just saw this posted on my FB days ago. My school is offering this very nice scholarship! Nice because of the benefits! Probably the highest in any scholarships offered by a Korean university. Plus SNU is the best university in Korea (ehem haha). The applications for the SNU Global Scholarship Program just open so grab this opportunity and study in Korea's best university! ^^v 

The Seoul National University (SNU) has announced the new SNU Global Scholarship Program for graduate students. It covers tuition fee waiver, round-trip airfare, monthly allowance of KRW1.2 million (which include accommodation and other expenses).

Graduate students must first apply for admission to SNU’s graduate programs. Their website is http://www.useoul.edu/. The application is now open until August 2, 2012. Announcement of successful applicants will be on November 9, 2012. The following fields are open: College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Business Administration, Education, Engineering, Humanities, Social Sciences, Medicine, Natural Science, Nursing, Graduate School of Public Health, Graduate school of Public Administration, Graduate School of International Studies.

Those who have received admission can then apply for the SNU Global Scholarship through the Office of International Affairs (c/o Ms. Jina Yoo: jinavic@snu.ac.kr) starting November 10 up to November 30, 2012 for March 2013 entrance. Students will be notified by e-mail of the final results of the said scholarship on December 28, 2012. Once granted the scholarship, it may be renewed on an academic semester basis; the recipients must maintain an average grade point level of 3.0/4.3.
