Cases of violation of application regulations for admission to private elementary schools in Seoul are confirmed.

It turns out that there are parents who applied to more private schools than the regulations by exploiting the fact that they do not properly identify themselves.

Private elementary schools in Seoul can apply to up to three schools per student, but it has been confirmed that they have applied to more than four schools.

Private elementary schools in Seoul enter student birth dates and names and authenticate their parents' mobile phones, and it was found that they applied to more schools than the regulations by using mobile phones of several people, including grandparents.

It exploited a loophole that does not have a system to verify whether the person has the same name by entering only the date of birth instead of the student's resident registration number.

The application reception agency, the college entrance examiner, announced to cancel if more than four schools were accepted, warning that all applications would be canceled if caught violating them.

He stressed that if more than four schools are registered, the school to cancel should be contacted individually by noon tomorrow to handle it.
