Hi guys!
I am planning to apply for the Research Category for MEXT however, I got confused because I'm planning to take the embassy route and it was stated on University websites that you have to become a research student (non-degree) before you could actually become a master's degree student. You have to take an entrance examination on your selected University before you can actually become a degree student. I plan to select Waseda, Sophia and Nagoya as my preferred universities.
How long do I have to stay as a kenkyusei for me to be able to take the entrance examination and become a master's degree student? Anybody got experience (past and current scholars)? Please do help me cause I'm planning to set this down to my timeline which will be included in my application. Thanks!
