[@priyakadakia2090]

You certainly did! Thank you for the detailed insights, Shaaista! 💪🏻

[@shaaistahasan42]

@user-bs9ho6nl6l there is no such syllabus if you are going through university recommendation. Your interview is based on the research work you present, and the field of work you would enter. So it's better to be thorough with your research work.

[@monih0702]

Proud of you Shaaista. Heartfelt wishes !

[@shaaistahasan42]

Thank you so much!😊

I am currently in my 12th (passing this march)...i was wondering if I could apply for the sep semester of 2024 and if yes then how? Also if I can't apply for the sep semester what other options do I have?

[@shaaistahasan42]

If you are fluent in Japanese (N2 or above) then you could maybe try to apply for the embassy recommendation or university recommendation in 2025. Because for a Bachelor's degree, almost all courses in Japan would be instructed in Japanese.

​@@shaaistahasan42 Hi, I'm Ronit Bhardwaj from India. I'm soon gonna JLPT N3 certificated and I'm already N4 certificated. I want to apply for study after 12th in japan but I'm legally 16 years old because my age is 2 years less in aadhar and my 10th marksheet. Am i eligible because they said you have to be 18 before going to Japan ? Also, is there any other way than scholarship for going to Japan ? And can i get a visa for long term study as I'm 16 years old ? Please guide me

[@cameraman9831]

Yes you are eligible you can see about it in mext website

[@nexus1529]

Can i apply for it after 12th?

[@LeapScholar]

Hello, yes you can!

[@sushanthEditss]

Mam Do they offer engineering courses under mext scholarship after completion of 12th? please reply

[@shaaistahasan42]

They do, but undergraduate courses are conducted only in Japanese. So you need to have a Japanese proficiency level of N2 or above

[@abhinavspeaksenglish]

Mam , isme aerospace engineering ka field bhi hai kya

[@eebee777]

I don't think so

[@immacool]

Yes they have

[@mann8827]

Hello ma'am, My name is Mann. I will be graduating this year (B.A Philosophy) can i pursue my M. Phil in Japan. Am i eligible for this Scholarship?

[@manikprabhuwattamwar90]

If I gave exam in 2024 what will my educational year ??

[@shaaistahasan42]

If you are asking about the Embassy-recommended MEXT Scholarship program then the written examination application deadline would be by April (although I would suggest you check it on the internet). On the other hand, for the university-recommended MEXT Scholarship it is a good time to connect with your professors around September-October and you should have sent out your application documents by the end of February, 2025. The above information is for the academic year 2025 (September-October).

[@NaseerAhmad-pl2be]

Can we apply without acceptance letter to Mext scholarship?

[@shaaistahasan42]

Usually if you apply for the university-recommended MEXT Scholarship, then based on the university you choose and your professor, acceptance as a MEXT Scholar will automatically get you accepted into the university.

What if abhi tak 12th k results publish na huye ho to......kya mujhe fir ek year ka gap dalna padega???

[@hirohishiro441]

Bro the worse is that mext process takes 1 year. If you apply in starting of 12th you will get there next year. If you apply after giving your exam i mean after 12th . Somehow, you got selected your course will start from next year .

Hi what are the ways to apply for mext through undergrad? Im currently in 10th and i want to apply for mext rught after completing my 12th

[@haruvme]

@Shivansh_kumar_Roy Yeah I heard that it is tough through ug but it will take around 3 years to get a college degree right? I can't wait that much and I'm not even sure if my parents will let me go to college

[@shaaistahasan42]

If you are looking to do your undergraduate degree in Japan, you would need to be fluent in Japanese as almost all courses are conducted in Japanese. I would suggest applying as a Master's student, as there is a good chance of finding English courses or rather bilingual (Japanese and English) courses

[@technodragon6852]

Can i pursue mbbs through mext???

[@shivanishah6206]

Is studying in Japan worth it? Can we make money?

[@shaaistahasan42]

There is a long and short answer to this, I believe. Based on your degree your job opportunities will be placed in front of you. Overall there is a basic Japanese language requirement in all companies, but the proficiency level depends from company to company. That said, it is a very good opportunity to make good money in Japan, as many students land with well-paying jobs even after their undergraduate degree. I believe that Japan's job market is very promising, and if you can chalk out your plans based on the current demand and your career, you can make good money

[@YogeshVenkat]

Information technology in bachelor degree I have done What if I want to study master after this?What course is available in Japan to study master degree Pls tell me bro, I want to come to Japan

[@LeapScholar]

Hello Yogesh, you can pursue programs in IT and related fields such as Data Science, AI, CS etc. Hope this helps.

[@RohitChauhan-ci5rm]

Please can anyone help me please I would like to ask if I can submit my application while I am studying in class 12

[@shaaistahasan42]

You surely can, but unless your Japanese proficiency level is N2, I would suggest you to apply for the Master's degree or above. In the undergraduate program all courses are conducted in Japanese which will require the N2 level of Japanese proficiency.

after deploma can i apply for mext

[@shaaistahasan42]

If you are planning to do a Master's degree, I believe that the requirement would be depending on your degree and the university/professor you apply to. I suggest you first scout your requisite university and degree, and after checking their requirements, apply accordingly. JPSS organises virtual fairs for colleges all over Japan, explaining their courses, etc. so i suggest you to be on a lookout for them
