Construction Worker Scholarship 2 Million Won Eligibility

This content applies specifically to South Korea.
If you are preparing a South Korean construction worker scholarship application, corrections must be completed by October 23, 2026, or the application will be rejected. For the second semester of 2026, 150 construction workers and their children who are university students will be selected to receive 2 million won each as study support for living expenses.
Check both contribution requirements
Start with the retirement mutual aid contribution record, the association's record of credited days. Time spent working on construction sites is not a substitute for this record.
- Workers applying for themselves need at least 85 total contribution days and at least 85 in the previous year or previous 12 months.
- For a child's application, the same parent needs at least 252 total days and at least 100 in the previous year or previous 12 months.
Check the recorded days at 1666-1133. Confirming this first can save you time collecting documents for an application that does not meet the contribution requirements.

Scholarship paperwork worth checking closely
The original article on OnBinder gives you separate document requirements for worker and child applications, alongside submission methods and correction rules. Its explanation of PDF certificates, signatures and payment account fields makes it useful when checking a prepared application.

Apply the rules to a parent’s record
If you are applying for a child and have 252 total contribution days but fewer than 100 in the previous year or previous 12 months, the contribution requirement is not met. The other parent's recent days cannot fill that gap: both thresholds must be met by the same parent.
Confirm academic and document eligibility
Check that you meet the South Korean nationality requirement and attend an eligible four-year university or junior college in South Korea. The previous regular semester must show at least 12 completed credits and a score of at least 80 out of 100. Other exclusions also apply.
A student aid bracket notice for the second semester of 2026 is required; applying without it is not allowed. Submitted documents must have been issued within 3 months of the application date.
Check other scholarship support
Can this be received with the National Scholarship?
Yes, the mutual aid association permits both. Check the other scholarship's restrictions too.
Can semester 1 of 2026 recipients apply again?
Yes, but they receive lower priority. Selection depends on the number of applicants and the budget.
Confirm the submission destination
Before submitting, you can call the association's customer service center at 1666-1122 to confirm the submission destination and status.
