Very insightful as always 👍✨👏 I believe there is differences in document submission period, especially for doctoral degree e.g. at Soka University is in November. So, for thos who are interested in doctoral program, opportunity is wide open👐
@@chrisberto799 hello, is it possible to apply for a student, even if he doesn't live in his country?? For instance, for a student from Cameroon living in Benin....
This is exactly what I have been longing to hear. God bless you. Embassy path didn't work out for me. Let me focus on University path. Please I have a question, can English Proficiency certificate go in place of TOEFL and IETS? I got a prof from Kumamoto University.
Thanks for the feedback. In regards to your question, most university in Japan wave IELTS/TOEFL if you have undertaken most of your studies in English. Just check with the admission office explaining your situation to them, I am quite sure it will be waved for you. A number of other students I guided submitted just English proficiency and it was accepted.
Hello, When the university interviewed about research plan and asked how would you manage language barrier to collect data in Japan? How did you answer it, brother?
Hello, This question depends on you intend to carry out your research in Japan. For example if your in the field of humanities, your research must not be done in Japan. You can be in Japan and send out questionnaires to your home country or country of research for data collection. In a nutshell, data collection must not be in Japan and you could you secondary data from the internet to carry out your analysis. Hope this helps .
Thank you for the information, bro. But i have few Qs...so do i have to admit to my preferred university and then reach out to a faculty member after for university recommendation? or i can send emails to the professor first?
Thank you for your question. Depending on the program and the level. For example if it’s a master program in a science related field, first send emails to professors and get their approval into their labs & supervision. Once that’s done, you can proceed to submitting you application for admission.
Hello, I have a question... Do you think I can apply for a university recommendation, and my English level needs improvement... I have a very good research plan and I strongly expect that they will approve... but my English is almost average! What do you advise me?
Hi bro I got mext scholarship for oct intake 2024. I received an official email from academic affair section of the university but they didn't sent me the letter of acceptance yet. I have to ask that after final selection by mext is there any other sort of screening like documents screening or anything like that? Waiting for your response.
Hello, Congratulations 🥂 !! Once Mext makes the final selection, to the best of my knowledge there is no other screening. I look forward to meeting with you in Japan.
My degree is non technical degree , a generic degree in natural sciences. Iam very confused about what to do . And what to attach in email . Other than Motivational letter. I haven’t done any peojects thesis or any research work I want a regular degree program of masters at university in japan through mext scholarship. What should i write in email . I got first division in my bachelor degree my marks are very high. Many say that for a degree program of masters on mext there is nothing as such required?
My advice will be for you to come out with a research plan on what you intern to do as a master student in your prospective university and send together in the email. Additionally, It’s also advisable to choose a research theme that aligns with the professor you intern to supervise you.
Hello! Congratulations 🎉 for been selected for the interviews. Some tips for preparation: 1. If you’re a post graduate student, please master your research proposal especially it’s methodology. 2. Speak with confidence during the interview ( this comes with adequate preparations) 3. Construct a good response to the question why you choose Japan & that specific Research topic you plan to undertake PS Let me know which program you were selected for In order to give more specific guidelines
If I get to understand you, it means you will be graduating next September 2024 for your bachelors right? If that’s the case, yes you can apply using your most recent transcripts.
Hi, definitely it is! Once you find a University offering your program of choice, check if they have the Mext Scholarship University track (In most cases they have). Good luck with your applications.
Professor is convinced to take me in his lab.whats next step? and one question what is the chances to get mext if professor allow in his lab and gets university admission ?
Hello, That’s a good sign ! Once get accepted by your professor you have high chances of being selected as he/she will be rooting for you. All the best !
I am really confused regarding timeline for application.. Many online documents says the timeline is around November-december and you are saying august to October... I don't know what to do now...
Thanks for your feedback! You shouldn’t be confuse, do your research and check each university application window then submit your application. Hope this helps

thank you for this information. i will be applying to mext this month from Nigeria, pls do i need to authenticate my document in the ministry of education? secondly, i am a linguists, i would like to study Japanese and east asia culture, do i still need to write up a research proposal?
Hello thank you for your comment. All documents you plan to submit must be certified by your School or the ministry of education. If you are a master student, a research proposal is one of the requirements to submit before getting admission and also a requirement for Mext scholarship. I hope this clarifies your doubt. All the best in your application
Hello, Before writing an email to professor make sure you have researched about the professor’s area of expertise and come up with a research proposal that is in line with what he/she is doing. In that way it becomes easy for the professor to relate with you and possibly accept you in his lab for supervision. Important things to include in email: -Your anticipated research theme -Attached a research proposal from the theme -Your current and past research works if you have. -why you want to join his/her lab. Those are some points to make mention.
Hi, Most universities will require you to pay application fees. But note, in the case of the Embassy recommendation path of the Mext Scholarship, once you get the Scholarship, to the next of my knowledge the application fee will be refunded to you. I hope this helps.
Hello, I will advise you send your documents at least one week before the deadline. This shows some level of organization and time management from your path. But if you haven’t been able to gather all documents within the slated time, you can send what you have at hand and point out the missing documents.
Hi bro my bachelor is psychology with HRM i want to apply master in international relations? Should my research related to my master, instead research can i send them proposal only ot study plan
Hello Please submit a research plan which is in line with your intended program (master) of study.
