INFORMATION

ACCEPTANCE OF FOREIGN STUDENTS IN JAPANESE UNIVERSITIES


Several Japanese universities have had significant experience in hosting foreign students. At first, they
admit their applicants as research students for six months, and let such students, whose knowledge of
Japanese language is insufficient, mainly study Japanese language in the special course of the
university. Then, at the end of the special course, the research student must take a special entrance
examination to the Maste/s course, usually for academic intellectual faculty and Japanese/English
language proficiency. The examination usually involves an interview by the professor in charge. Only
those who passed such special entrance examination are admitted entering the university as a regular
student of the Master's course, Even after admitted, many classes are taught in Japanese, some
explained in English, and some conducted in mixed languages. The impoftance of studying the
Japanese language throughout their campus life cannot be overemphasized in addition to improving
English proficiency. The FOUNDATION encourages its scholarship students to study Japanese language
and extends financial assistance by means of compensating Japanese language tuition fees immediately
after selected.
Recently some of Japanese universities have opened a new course such as International Graduate
Course or Global Course for international students. They place their entrance examination and hold
classes in English. Those universities do not necessarily specify how much proficiency in English is
required, but many deem that more than 550 TOEFL ITP score record or the equivalent level in other
English proficiency tests will be necessary. Even foreign students in International Graduate Course will
need a certain level of Japanese language proficiency to fully enjoy their life in Japan. A recent study
shows that the higher fluency in Japanese language a foreign student acquires, the more fruitful life
they can spend in Japan.

MASTER'S DEGREE IN JAPANESE UNIVERSITIES


According to the educational system of Japan, the course for a Master's degree requires at least two
years for study after graduation from a university (i.e., after completion of the whole course of 16 years
conducted at school - 6 years in primary school, each 3 years in middle and high school and 4 years in
faculty course of a university).
Those who have studied in such a course for the required terms of study, obtaining the necessary
credits, and have passed the terminal examination after submission of their theses, will be given the
Master's degree.
