There were three screenings of applicants in the rolling recruitment of College of Future Convergence in 2022. Four majors: the Department of New Industry Convergence Management (Night class), Mecha Convergence Engineering (Night class), Faculty of Startup Asset Convergence, Anti-aging Healthcare, had an opportunity to be able to apply to three screenings: Employment, Lifelong Learner, and Specialized High School Employee screening. Unlike different screenings, people who want a chance to understand all of the requirements, can enroll to veiw these screenings. There is also a difference in operating a customized education system for adult learners, who can work and study at the same time as night and weekend classes. Additionally, the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) is a needless condition and there are the limits like age and whether you are in office or not. However, in this year, eligibility for applications has been changed.

The admission age of existing lifelong learner screening had been over 30 years old on the basis of the final deadline for filing applications. However, currently, it has been lowered to 23 years of age. It has reorganized to be able to conduct rolling recruitment actively by providing an opportunity to Changwon City's many citizens.

In addition to promoting on a local website, Changwon University has an advantage, as a national university, the admission age of lifelong learner screenings could draw attention from Changwon City's citizens who were considering this. Therefore, this promotion seems to be effective and expected. Public relations cooperation was promoted through the joint efforts of the Admissions Department Dongbaekwan (University of Future Convergence Administration Office), Computing Center, and Changwon City. Changwon City aimed to provide a lot of applications to the College of Future Convergence by employees and lifelong learners in related institutions, businesses, and commerce, including Changwon Industrial Promotion Agency, an investment-funded institution.
