About Kpop College

The Founder and President of Kpop College is "Kpop DJ". It's of course our fancy stage name if you call it that. In effort to help shine the light more on our students and Kpop artists we thought it would be best to use our stage name. Kpop DJ just works behind the scenes pushing and pulling the levers as he builds this university one brick at a time. It's our long term goal to hopefully construct a actual college campus on land with lecture halls, professors, degree's, residence halls, cafeteria, cafe's, library, student union center and the world's largest stadium for Kpop concerts and sporting events. Our goal is to become the world's most prestigious and attended university in the world. It too is our goal to be able to construct a campus which will be a non profit institution where our students, record labels and Kpop artist's can benefit the most.

Kpop College - Launch Plans
Launch Phase I:
As of right now, Kpop College is in Phase I of our launch which means we're not an accredited university at this moment but rather a "virtual online college".
We still have to line up investors and grants to reach Phase II. The more students that participate and are actively involved on Kpop College will directly impact how fast we can reach Phase II. So help us, help you by proactively engaging with other students, go ahead and send friend requests to other students and provide them feedback on their covers. Be a leader and show the record labels you're serious about becoming a future artist. Those that sit on the sidelines, waiting for others to approach them and lead will most likely not achieve Kpop star level. Good team work and leadership are great attributes you can utilize in any career you pursue.
For Juniors and Seniors currently in High School, please plan on attending a college / university of your choice. You can still enroll at Kpop College at the same time and use our online resources to learn and improve your Kpop talents while making new Kpop friends.
Launch Phase II:
Phase II of our launch will be constructing a college / university campus on land which will be located in the United States. It will have students, professors, lecture halls, student union, cafeteria, degree's, residence halls (dormitories) and a large stadium to hold Kpop concerts and sporting events.
Launch Phase III:
Phase III of our launch will be constructing a sister university in South Korea, Japan, China and Germany. This will be for students who don't have the opportunity to travel overseas to attend Kpop College in the United States.
How does Kpop College work?
We provide students at Kpop College online resources to help them learn about Kpop music. How to dance, how to sing, how to speak, read and write Korean, how get the right image, etc. Students can post their Kpop covers from YouTube on this site for others to view and to obtain feedback on how to improve. When we discover students that have potential, we promote them by creating a Fan Club page for them. After that occurs we try to help them gain popularity on YouTube and other social media pages in effort to help them get recognized by South Korean record labels or other interested labels. To Learn more, please take our Campus Tour and we will guide you through the simple process.
Why should I enroll at Kpop College?
Well, for starters it's absolutely 100% free to enroll and participate at Kpop College! The great thing about our university is that there is no tuition to pay. In fact our long range goal is to make Kpop College a tuition free campus even in Phase II and Phase III. This will be accomplished by having advertisers, investors, donations and record labels who are interested in collaborating with our university.
Secondly, if you're dream is to one day become a Kpop star yourself, why not enroll at our university and let us try to help you become more popular. Think of us as your spring board to help you get to the next level. Of course nothing is guaranteed, but you can have fun along the way trying while making new friends who also love Kpop music.
We're working very hard behind the scenes to try to provide our students more leverage to help them get recognized by record labels. While students spend time practicing their skills, let us work the channels to leverage more popularity for you. We already have many Kpop artists, Kpop groups, South Korea Record Labels, Businesses, Government Agencies, Celebrities, Actors, Actresses, Movie Directors and South Korean Universities already following us as Kpop College's popularity increases. Check the: list of followers.
Where is Kpop College located?
As of right now we're on the internet as a virtual college. But in Phase II of our construction, we plan to build a multi-million dollar campus on land in the United States, specifically near Columbus, Ohio. The reason, is because that's were thesite owner (Kpop DJ) resides and secondly, it's near the one of the largest universities in the world called Ohio State University which houses many college students. Many students from all over the globe attend this university in Ohio.
Why is Kpop College helping students get recognized by record labels?
We like to make students smile and achieve their dreams. It makes us happy to see our students smile! And our personal goal is to build a college campus on land to further help our students achieve all their life long dreams.
What do I have to do?
Well, for one it's very important that you are a "team player". For us to build a large platform to help our students get recognized we need all the students to be team players to create enough momentum for this institution. As we like to say, it's akin to riding a bicycle. One must not only pump air into their front tire to promote themselves, but also pump air into their back tire to promote others. If students only spend time promoting themselves and waiting for others to come to them then you'll never reach your dream goals. It requires team work by filling both tires in your bicycle to reach your designation.
Students need to spend an equal amount of time promoting themselves and helping other students that post Kpop covers. They need to leave feedback on how to improve and to friend request other students in a proactive manner to get discussions going.
Does Kpop College only promote Kpop covers?
Well primarily our focus is on Kpop covers, however we also will promote those that have exceptional talent in other music genres including Jpop, Cpop, American Pop and others that are of interest to our site.
How old do I have to be to enroll at Kpop College?
Well, Kpop College is primarily for college age students (18 - 30), however we also accept students 13 to 18 as well as we know record labels are looking for younger students to groom them to become future Kpop stars. If you're 13 to 18, you should first consult with your parents to see if it's OK to enroll. If you're less than 13, you should have a parent with you when you are on the site so they can properly supervise you in the manner they see fit.
How do I contact Kpop College if I have questions?
If you have any questions, you can Contact Us. But please keep in mind, we receive lots of messages and it's very difficult to respond to everyone. Don't think we're ignoring you, it's just not possible to get to every question and / or we already answered that question. If you have some general questions for us, please visit our: Ask page to pose your question or review other questions posed by others.
Is Kpop College hiring staff?
Well, at this moment we are a free website / institution (virtual university). We don't have financial resources coming in to hire staff. However, if you like to be part of this new college tradition we encourage those that are interested to become a Kpop College Volunteer. We have hundreds of activities going on behind the scenes and with the resources we have now, it's very difficult to keep up. Becoming a volunteer not only allows you to get on in this college tradition that will be looked at many years later as the leaders who set up this wonderful university for students but also a way to show your community service. Those that are consistent volunteers, we would be willing to write college recommendation letters for you to show our appreciation of your service. Many universities require recommendation letters from those that know you and put in work. You visit our Volunteer page for a list of open positions and current students who are helping us achieve this dream for you.
