Major Educational Policies and Admission Changes
With recent attempts to cheat in university admissions using AI-powered smart glasses, the Ministry of Education has issued strict response guidelines. As cases continue to rise—including test-takers caught wearing smart glasses during essay exams at Yonsei University and University of Seoul—the ministry has requested that universities nationwide strengthen supervision and share response guidelines for the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT). In particular, exam management and supervision are on high alert, with plans to conduct full inspections of test-takers wearing glasses during every session on the day of the CSAT.
Additionally, following the revised Private Teaching Institutes Act that took effect on the 1st, the ministry announced it will step up inspections and measures against violations to ensure the "complete ban on level tests for preschool-targeted private academies" operates effectively in the field. This is interpreted as a measure to secure fairness in early childhood education.
Meanwhile, Minister of Education Choi Kyo-jin expressed his intention to apply a government-led application reception system starting as early as next year's college admissions. He also hinted at plans to additionally select and intensively support two or more national universities next year in connection with the "Creating 10 Seoul National Universities" policy.
Admissions Strategies and Analysis
With the CSAT just a month away, preparation for new cheating tools like AI smart glasses has emerged as a major concern for test-takers. Possessing prohibited items without submitting them or wearing them during the exam will result in immediate cancellation of that year's test scores, and severe disciplinary action—including deprivation of eligibility to take the exam the following year—will be imposed in accordance with Article 19 of the CSAT Management Regulations, a ministry directive. Therefore, test-takers must pay special attention to managing their belongings.
Regarding regular admissions strategies, past data (as of December 2025) specified that the application reception period for the 2026 academic year regular admissions runs from December 29 to December 31. It is important to carefully examine the recruitment groups, student selection methods, and previous year's admission results of target universities calmly before CSAT scores are announced.
Analyses continue to emerge that, due to difficulty shifts in Korean and English sections (a tendency toward a "difficult CSAT"), judging the advantages and disadvantages of standard scores and percentiles in regular admissions serves as a key factor in increasing admission chances. Advisors note that students must carefully weigh the reflection ratios of Korean, math, and English by university to determine where they stand.
High School Admissions and Learning Info
Specific, up-to-date news (post-2026-10-13) regarding high school selection or admissions for specialized/autonomous private high schools was not confirmed in this week's search results. However, the overall trend of tightened private education regulations by the Ministry of Education, such as the ban on preschool level tests, is expected to indirectly impact high school admissions and the learning environment.
Next Week's Admissions Schedule and Summary
- CSAT Pre-Exam Belonging Checks and Caution on AI Devices: As the ministry has announced full inspections of test-takers wearing glasses during every session on the day of the CSAT, test-takers must re-verify prohibited item regulations.
- Intensive Inspections for Preschool Academy Level Test Violations: Related institutions must prepare for guidance and inspections as the ministry strengthens monitoring of violations related to the revised Private Teaching Institutes Act implemented on October 1.
- Accelerated Discussion on Overhauling Next Year's Application Reception System: Following the Minister of Education's remarks, detailed plans for establishing a state-led application reception system are likely imminent.
