Apply for acceptance letter - MEXT Embassy

MEXT (Embassy Recommended) Candidates

After you pass the first round of screening at a Japanese embassy, you will be asked to obtain a "Letter of Acceptance" from the graduate schools of your choice. In order to receive an acceptance letter from our program, please prepare the documents listed below and send them by email. Please contact us as soon as possible after the announcement of the first round screening results. 

Japanese Embassy-nominated candidates can be accepted as research students or apply directly for the graduate school if they qualify for direct enrollment. Candidates accepted as research students may enroll in a Master's or Doctoral program in either October or April after passing the enrollment screening.

Applicants who are nominated for the scholarship must subsequently apply for admission screening to the e3 program (Master's / Doctoral courses) or Research Student.

Caution!!

MEXT Scholarship application and admission screening to the e3 program or Research Student are separate procedures.
