North London Collegiate School Jeju, the first international school to open in the Jeju Global Education City, will offer full scholarships to students from low-income families with outstanding academic performances.
The scholarships will cover full tuition and boarding fees until graduation, school officials said Thursday.
The NLCS also offered a campus tour and admission information session for prospective students and their families to learn about campus life and conditions for admission ahead of the 2012-13 school year during an open house event Thursday.

The visitors were guided by students currently attending the school and visited classes in session and the state-of-the-art facilities including dorms and gyms, according to the tradition of main campus.
The school admission team said NLCS would select students with potential who not only excelled in English, but also had critical thinking ability, creativity and caring minds for others.
NLCS Jeju is the first branch campus of NLCS UK, a prestigious private school with a 161-year tradition.
The Jeju campus offers education from kindergarten to the 13th grade. A total of 434 students were enrolled last year.
The application deadline for the 2012 school year is Dec. 31 and the new school term starts in September.
