Reservation Program for Monbukagakusho Honors Scholarship (by pre-arrival admission)

Note: Only students using the Pre-Arrival Admission System can apply through this system. The Pre-Arrival Admission System is a program through which international students can apply directly for admission from overseas, with candidates being selected and their admission approved without them ever having to come to Japan before enrollment. At Osaka Metropolitan University, this is only applicable to the graduate school reservation system. Prospective applicants should contact the Student Affairs Division via their supervisor.

After enrolment: Scholarships offered by private foundations

Some of these scholarships are given by university recommendation, and others by direct application.
University recommendations are submitted by the university in accordance with the guidelines of the organization concerned. Among prospective applicants, Osaka Metropolitan University recommends candidates who meet the application conditions for application in order of priority based on the university’s selection criteria. University recommendations can be applied for after enrollment.
Direct applications can be made by individuals directly without going through the university.
Notifications from scholarship foundations to the university are published on the OMU UNIPA portal, which is updated as required, and individual students are asked to check this for themselves. (The OMU UNIPA portal can be viewed after enrollment.)
