The scholarship recipients receive their annual tuition divided into two semesters. This year, the foundation plans to provide a total of approximately 7.7 billion KRW in support, including living expense scholarships in addition to university scholarships.

Since its establishment in 1970, Yuhan Foundation has selected outstanding university students every year for 56 years and has covered their full tuition until graduation. As of last year, the number of scholarship recipients reached about 8,700, with total support amounting to approximately 31 billion KRW.

Kim Joongsu, Chairman of Yuhan Foundation, said, "We have been operating the university scholarship system for over half a century to practice the noble ideals of the late Dr. Yuilhan, who lived as an independence activist, innovative entrepreneur, and pioneering educator." He added, "We hope that members of the Scholarship Alumni Association, who have received academic support through the Yuhan spirit, will continue the tradition of playing a central role in the development of our society across various fields."
