Here are some frequently asked questions for international Applicants. Please see below for the relevant information.
Q1: How can I enroll in the undergraduate program of School of Pharmaceutical Sciences?
A1:
You have to take the two steps to enter the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences.
First, there are two types of primary examinations : one is the General Entrance Examination, which is the same exam as Japanese students take, and the other is the Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students (EJU), which is administrated only to the international students by Japan Student Services Organization (JASSO https://www.jasso.go.jp/en/index.html ).
After taking one of them, you need to take the exam which is administrated by School of Pharmaceutical Sciences.
All the exams are conducted in Japanese, and applicants are required to have as adequate Japanese language abilities as ordinary Japanese students.
This is because most of the liberal-arts educations and specialized subects are offered in Japanese.
