2. 2

   What you can study

   You can study in the Faculty of Health Sciences, with departments of nursing, physical therapy, and social welfare. If you want a broader subject range beyond those areas, you will need to check whether any additional programmes are offered on the university website.

   Getting in

   International applicants should check the university’s admissions pages for entry requirements, documents, deadlines, and whether any language conditions apply. The university website is the place to confirm the current application route, because those details are not included in the public description.

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee in the available information; confirm the current cost with its admissions office. Living costs in Aomori will still depend on your housing, transport, and daily expenses, so check current local costs before applying.

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not stated, so confirm this directly with the university before you apply. You should also check visa steps, document translation requirements, health insurance, and whether the programme you want accepts international students.

   How it compares

   Among Japan’s 571 universities, this one is a public, specialist institution rather than a broad multi-subject university. That makes it more focused than many larger Japanese universities if you want health sciences, but less suitable if you are looking for a wide academic catalogue.
