Group A will select 300 students for the free major, Group B will select 166 students for the future convergence major (humanities), 199 students for the future convergence major (natural sciences), and 65 students for the future convergence major (fine arts). Students who enter the relevant major will be able to freely choose any undergraduate program or major within the university (however, some majors are not available).

 

In addition, the natural science department has changed the way it evaluates students by removing the requirement to take math (geometric/geometric) and science and giving them 3.0% of the standard score as extra credit for those subjects.
