Sophia University, in collaboration with the Pathways Japan (PJ) and the International Christian University Foundation (JICUF), will accept students who wish to continue their studies in Japan, avoiding the armed invasion of Ukraine by Russia. I decided that.
Up to 2022 evacuees from Ukraine will be accepted as non-regular students during 10.The first team is expected to start accepting students from the summer session starting on July 2022, 7.The acceptance period as a non-regular student is until the end of the spring semester of 5 (end of September 2023).If you wish to continue studying at Sophia University, transfer and entrance examinations will be conducted, and if you pass, you will be accepted as a regular student. (The content of support at that time will be examined separately)
Support for evacuees includes travel expenses, transportation expenses from the airport, monthly living expenses of 8 yen, dormitory exemption for Sophia University directly managed dormitories, full tuition exemption, and support for establishing a life in Japan. (Life counseling, career / employment counseling, mental care, part-time job consultation), etc.
Sophia University is working on all-Sophia support activities, such as starting a Ukrainian humanitarian aid fund-raising activity in collaboration with the United Nations UNHCR Association and the Sophia Society, a graduate organization, on March 2022, 3.We will continue to practice the educational spirit of "For Others, With Others" and continue to support and support Ukrainians in difficult situations.
