With a server error on the college application agency site, the deadline for submitting applications for the 2027 academic year early admissions was extended by one hour.

The Korean Council for University Education (KCUE) said on the 11th that, given a server error in the "Uwayapply" application system, it extended the deadline for submitting applications for the 2027 academic year early admissions by one hour, from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

According to KCUE, a server error occurred in the Uwayapply application system at about 5:50 p.m. that day.

As a result, some test-takers were unable to complete application submission and payment normally ahead of the deadline.

Test-takers can submit applications to universities that use the system by signing up as a unified member with either of the application agencies, Uwayapply or Jinhak Apply.
