On May 2020, 5, the Japan Student Services Organization announced the cancellation of the 13 Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students (6st), which was scheduled to be held on June 21st.

 The application deadline for the 1st Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students was March 3, and the number of applications was 13 in 16 prefectures in Japan and 2 in 7635 cities in 14 countries and regions overseas.However, due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, it is extremely difficult to secure a domestic test site and avoid the risk of infection for examinees. Since such things are being done, it was unavoidable to decide to cancel.

 The examination fee will be refunded to the applicant in the future, but the specific procedure will be announced later on the Japan Student Services Organization website and email.In addition, we are requesting universities, etc. that were planning to use this grade for the entrance examination for international students to take care not to lose the opportunity for applicants to take the examination.
The second Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students is scheduled to be held on November 2, 2020, but will be considered depending on the situation.

 The Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students evaluates the necessary Japanese language ability and basic academic ability for those who wish to enter a Japanese university (undergraduate) as an international student.It is held twice a year in June and November every year, both in Japan and abroad.Some universities do not carry out individual examinations, but allow admission based on the results of the Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students and high school results.In addition, among the desired examinees, those with excellent grades can receive a reservation for the "Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Foreign Student Learning Incentive Fee" benefit, and can receive this scholarship after entering a Japanese university.
