Other Financial Support

In the case that a student is not awarded a scholarship from the Integrated Science Program or the MEXT after admission, they are required to pay the tuition fees in full. However, students may apply for a full, half, or quarter tuition waiver if they are experiencing difficulty in paying their tuition for financial reasons, and have demonstrated outstanding academic performance.

In addition, scholarship opportunities are offered from a variety of private organizations. Those who wish to apply for such programs may do so after being admitted to the Integrated Science Program. Details on how to apply for these scholarships will be disseminated after enrollment.
