Thank you for visiting our website on the Monbukagakusho (MEXT: Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) Scholarship.
These instructions are for those wishing to apply for a scholarship recommended by a Japanese embassy or consulate general (“Embassy Recommendation”).
When you pass the preliminary selection examination to be held at the Japanese Embassy, please contact us and submit all the necessary documents for obtaining a “Letter of Acceptance” before the deadline fixed by Nihon University.
1. Please attend to the following 1.-8
- You will submit all the necessary documents as an e-mail attachment to the International Affairs Division, Nihon University.
- Application Period for 2021 Fall runs from June 1 to November 20(JST).
- Your future supervisor will be decided in the process of application and you are unable to directly contact the faculty before getting the final result.
- We will start handling your application after you have handed in all the necessary documents.
- A Letter of Acceptance will be issued only when the applied graduate school of Nihon University concludes that the graduate is able to write it for you.
- The procedure at the University requires around 1 month after the arrival of the documents.
- Receiving a Letter of Acceptance from Nihon University does not mean that you are formally admitted to Nihon University, since the final decision should be referred to the Monbukagakusho. You will hear the final result in February of the next year.
- Some supervisors require you to have proficiency in Japanese as a language for instruction.
