Notes

Program Extension

Extending one’s study period is not permitted. Please advise students to plan and choose their study period very carefully when applying.

Scholarship Availability

Scholarships such as JASSO (only available for university-wide exchanges) are available but are NOT guaranteed for all exchange students since the number of recipients is limited.

No scholarships are eligible for exchange students to apply AFTER coming to Japan. Please make sure to arrange it in their home country. It is also difficult for exchange students to get a part-time job during their exchange period.

For transfer students who wish to apply for the JLP

Students must have completed at least one semester at their home university (nominating institution) at the time of application. The student must be able to submit a transcript and a recommendation letter from the home university
