🔠 What level of English proficiency is required?

• Since the common language among Korean, Chinese, and Japanese university students during the competition is English, you should be comfortable with basic communication and be able to conduct business plan development, report writing, and presentations in English. If you can meet this level of proficiency, it should be sufficient. More important than English proficiency is the fresh and innovative ideas that university students like you bring. So, please don't hesitate to apply due to concerns about your English skills.

🧑‍🎓 Can graduate students apply?
