Tenri University: the applicant's brief

6 findings
  1. The short answer

    Tenri University is a university in Japan that currently appears to offer postgraduate study at the master’s level. It suits applicants who want a small, specific programme offering rather than a broad multi-level catalogue.

  2. What you can study

    The listed study option is a Master’s Degree, with 助産学専攻科 shown as an example programme. No broader subject list is published, so confirm the full programme catalogue on the university website before applying.

  3. Getting in

    International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions process and check the entry requirements for the specific master’s programme they want. Confirm the application documents, deadlines, and whether any language or entrance requirements apply on the official website.

  4. What it costs

    The university does not publish a tuition fee range in the information available; confirm the current fee directly with the admissions office. As with any move to Japan, plan separately for living costs such as housing, food, transport, and insurance.

  5. Coming from abroad

    The language of instruction is not published, so confirm that before you apply. If you are moving from abroad, check visa steps, document requirements, housing, and whether the programme you want accepts international applicants.

  6. How it compares

    Japan has 571 universities, so Tenri University is one option in a very large national system. Its current appeal is the narrow programme offer at master’s level, which will suit students who already know the exact field they want and do not need a wide range of degrees.

Written from this university's catalogue entry and its cited encyclopedia summary. Figures are only shown where the institution or a cited source publishes them — always confirm fees and entry requirements with the university itself before applying.
