4. Administrative Notes

A.

  • Transfer-in processing will not be completed if military service information (e.g., military service number) is entered incorrectly.

  • Do not submit a report while still on active duty or within two weeks of discharge, as discharge information may not yet have been transferred from the military to the Military Manpower Administration.

B.

  • Students who fail to report during the designated portal reporting period will not be assigned to the first round of reserve forces training for the Fall 2025 semester (September 17–30) due to statutory notification deadlines.

  • After the reporting period, reports may be submitted by mail, fax, or in person.

※ For mail/fax reporting procedures, refer to:
KUPID → Knowledge Management → Student Information → Military Affairs Information → Reserve Forces Transfer-In (Deferment) Reporting Guide
