Good to know before applying

  1. Application documents must arrive by the application deadline (send them to the Tokyo Campus). Send them so they arrive at least 3 days before the deadline.
  2. Your attendance record at your current school is checked, and many absences or late arrivals can count against you (submit a medical certificate for illness, etc.).
  3. If the payment of tuition and fees and the submission of documents are not completed by the enrollment procedure deadline, admission is not granted for any reason. Installments are not allowed.
  4. The admission fee is not refunded for any reason. If you withdraw on or after April 1, 2027, none of the tuition and fees is refunded.
  5. Mid- to long-term residents with a residence status other than "Student" should consult the Tokyo Campus admissions office beforehand.
