Soongsil University Hosts Mock Admissions Seminar for High School Teachers

Soongsil University hosted a mock evaluation seminar for high school teachers on July 7, offering a firsthand look at its admissions process. The event, part of the 'Contribution to High School Education' initiative, focused on enhancing teachers' understanding of how university admissions committees evaluate applications.

This year's seminar distinguished itself by including direct participation from professors of Soongsil's AX-specialized departments. These faculty members provided insights into their respective fields, outlining the ideal candidate profiles and key evaluation points for admissions. Teachers engaged in practical exercises, simulating the document screening process and then comparing their assessments with those of university admissions officers. This hands-on approach aimed to provide a concrete understanding of the university's evaluation perspective.

Having the department professors directly explain the ideal candidate profile allowed me to gain a more accurate understanding of the educational curriculum and learning content for each major.

The seminar covered various aspects of the admissions system, including an overview of Soongsil University's student record-based comprehensive admission evaluation framework. Presentations were made by the Dean of Admissions, Jang Sung-yeon, and professors from departments such as Economics and Physics. Discussions also included an analysis of the 2026 admissions results and an outline of the 2027 admission plan, with a specific focus on the newly established document-based student record comprehensive admission track for 2027.

Participants found the seminar highly beneficial. One teacher noted, "Having the department professors directly explain the ideal candidate profile allowed me to gain a more accurate understanding of the educational curriculum and learning content for each major." The sentiment was that the session offered a more academic approach to admissions beyond mere application procedures. Dean Jang Sung-yeon expressed his expectation that the seminar would serve as a valuable opportunity to deepen high school educators' comprehension of the comprehensive admission system and foster greater trust between universities and high schools.
