Uiwang City Holds Online College Admissions Early Admission Strategy Briefing Session

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Uiwang City held an online "college admissions early submission application strategy briefing session" on the 29th to support college entrance examination candidates who are facing increased anxiety due to COVID-19.

The city initially planned to hold the early submission briefing session for the first 100 applicants in order of arrival, but due to the government's heightened social distancing measures, it was instead conducted as a live broadcast through Uiwang City's Facebook.

The online early submission application strategy briefing session was divided into two parts: Part 1, a lecture on college admissions early submission information analysis by Im Sung-ho, CEO of Jongno Academy, and Part 2 on college admissions early submission characteristics and application strategies by Jang Moon-sung, Director of Jongno Academic Development Institute.

Starting September 2, the city plans to provide recorded videos of the briefing session through its official YouTube channel so that students, teachers, and parents can access it without restrictions on time and location.

Uiwang City Mayor Kim Sang-don stated, "With the nationwide resurgence of COVID-19, there must be many concerns among students and parents, but I hope students will prepare for college admissions without wavering, using strategies that suit them," adding, "The city will also make multifaceted efforts to provide practical assistance in college admissions."
