Announcement of the result

The final list of exchange applicants will be announced in about three months at latest after the application deadline. Prior and later inquiry about the selection process will not be available, but questions about application procedures will be welcome.

• For your reference we attach the selection check points in the following. The exchange applicants will be strictly selected through discussion by the

International Exchange Committee, its exchange student selection board, and

each faculty related to the applicant’s study/research interest.

 

Selection check points

We will decide admission of exchange applicants based on the following points.

• Academic motivation: Applicants should write their purposes and plans for study/research and activities at Kagoshima University clearly in detail.
• Academic performance in the institution applicants belong to.
• Language ability related to their study/research plan:
• Students are required to have the Japanese proficiency at a minimum of the N2 level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, if they would like to attend classes conducted only in Japanese and to earn credits for those classes.
• However, all students who do not meet the required level of Japanese language can enroll in the Study Japan Program at the International Student Division in the Global Initiative Center regardless of their Japanese proficiency. The students can take classes of Japanese language and culture and earn those credits.

③ Otherwise, if there are classes given in English or in another language and the professor allows the students to take the class, it is possible to take the class and earn credits, though the number of the classes is limited.

• Correct application procedure: All application procedures must be followed correctly: in particular, all applications must be submitted by the deadline.

 

Note

Exchange students must arrange by themselves the minimum amount of money needed for accommodation, meals and daily expenses for the whole period of their stay at Kagoshima University.
