MEXT Scholarship 2015 (Research Students)

Any Indian applicant here still waiting for the results of the second screening?
 
I don't think is a good idea to contact neither the university nor any of the professors since both the embassy and MEXT as well on the application guidelines said it was prohibited :/ Waiting is killing me but I've been waiting the hole year lol I prefer to be patient and see what happens in January.

Hi everybody! My Sensei emailed me that I've been accepted in the second screening. Is anyone applying to Uni of Tsukuba as first option?

By the way, I'm from Brazil.

Nope, Tsukuba was mi third option :(
 
Regarding the letters sent by embassies a week ago. It may be late to ask this but Ive read the thread and observed that everyone received emails from the embassy stating that they have passed the secondary screening and asking for the confirmation. I got the email as well however, it didnt say anything about passing tje secondary stage all it asked was for my confirmation if I still want to go to Japan. Should I be worried?
Hi.
I just got a call asking if I still want to continue with the process, nothing about second screening either.
 
Hi konhoshi,
my professor contacted me.Just wait,it shouldnt get longer than till January I assume.Which department did you apply for?I applied to Sport and Health Sciences
 
hey guys our embassy just sent some letter today about provisional acceptance (basically passing of secondary screening), and told to wait for university placement. they didn't mention anything about contacting the profs or unis...

The next would be the placement of university, MEXT will place us to our first choice and goes down the preferences list if the previous does not accept us. The final results should be announced by no later than the end of february ( Just my speculation). By the way, congratulations to you for have succeeded in reaching this stage, by now, we should expect the chances of going to Japan about 70~90%. We, in Malaysia, are currently still waiting for the final results as you do, let's all pray that we will be able to be in Japan on 2015. ^_^

That's nice and which universities you applied to? If you don't mind to share it here. ^_^ As of me, Titech, Waseda and Tohoku.
 
Hello everyone, wish you all merry christmas and happy new year in advance. Let's move on to next fabulous year =D.
 
Hey Guys Merry Christmas to you all :D :) May this coming year brings awesome news and joy to us all :joyful:
 
Firstly, Happy New Year guys! I hope that 2015 will be the best year to all of you, by going to Japan.

Furthermore, I bring news. The Consulate has just called me saying I was placed in Tsukuba Uni by the MEXT, but the final letter will arrive only late jan/ early feb. I asked if this means 100% for me, and she said yes. She also said that the university will contact me around the same time.
I'm kinda confused by the early response, I wasn't expecting this, but so happy lol.

First of all congrats man...awesome news :)
is that same for other candidates in your country
 
Hey guys,

I hope everyone had a fantastic New Year!

After lerking at this forum for few weeks under a different pseudonyme (I supposedly can't log in with facecook anymore because of a problem in the app...), and stressing out about the final results, an email arrived today, the 26, from the International Student Section at the University of Tokyo (my profesor is affiliated with the Area Studies Department). It was very simple and brief:

Dear Mr. XXX,

We hope this email finds you well.

We have just mailed Certificate of Admission and the documents
about enrollment procedure to you by Express Mail Service(EMS).

The tracking number of the package is EFXXXXXXXXX.

You can trace the package on the following website:
Confirmation of EMS mail - Japan Post

For your information, we send a copy of the EMS label to you
as a PDF attachment.

Best regards,

International Student Section
Graduate School of Arts and Sciences
The University of Tokyo



I am thriller to finally have to stop wondering whether I'll be in Tokyo or Nagoya, this is by far the best Christmas present I have received this year! Too grateful for words. I hope everyone else get their final confirmation very soon!
 
Hi konhoshi,
my professor contacted me.Just wait,it shouldnt get longer than till January I assume.Which department did you apply for?I applied to Sport and Health Sciences

Sorry for the late reply,
I have applied to the graduate school of international culture and communication studies. The professor who accepted me previously authorised for me to have his email, so I thought that maybe it would be okay to contact him. But yeah, just need to be patient! Thanks :)

Congratulations to everyone else so far for finding where they are going to!
 
Happy new year everyone! Yesterday I received news from the Embassy that I will be attending Kagoshima University. Anyone else? For those still waiting, patience! I am 100% sure good news to come!!
 
Hello! Anyone here who is applying in any of the Bioscience & Biotechnology programs of TiTech?
 
an email arrived today, the 26, from the International Student Section at the University of Tokyo

Congratulations! In case any other U Tokyo applicants are freaking out... I haven't been formally accepted yet, but have already been offered student housing, so I think they are still in the midst of processing.

BTW, will you be accepting their student housing? I think I will just to meet other MEXT scholars...
 
Thanks so much, it feels great to stop worrying. I hope everyone gets their confirmation very soon.

I am surprised you were contacted about student housing already. Their documents told me the email would come in January. I will definitely try to live at the Komaba Int'l House, cannot pass the chance on such cheap rent in such a location! So they emailed you about housing but the school itself didn't send you the certificate of admission?

Actually there is one thing I am worried about. The certificate of admission mentions that I am admitted until Agust 2015. Worse, they sent with the package a document about the changes in semesters and terms of research. Yet it never clearly mentions that it goes from 2 years to 5 months, nor whether this is meant for MEXT applications. In any case, I contacted the int'l student office section and I have yet to receive an answer. I am guessing that they offer admission for that period and then you can extent it upward to two years...I hope so because in 5 months, I could barely finish the 6 month language classes. Anyone has any idea?
 
Happy New Year everyone!
