   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions process and check the current entry requirements, deadlines, and document list on the university website. The key points to confirm are whether your chosen programme is open to international students, what academic records and language evidence are required, and whether any additional screening or interview applies.

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a fee for international students; confirm the current tuition with its admissions office. Living costs in Tokyo should also be planned for separately, including housing, transport, food, and insurance.

   Coming from abroad

   The university is in Japan, and the language of instruction is not stated for all programmes, so confirm the teaching language for each course before applying.
