MEXT Scholarship 2016 (Research)

H
Hi fellow Malaysian. I was wondering how did your colleagues received their result? Is it thru email from the embassy or calling the embassy?
Hi Ajen,

Farah said that embassy will email to us once she received instruction to do so. For now, you can check by calling her or email her. Mine is not listed in first batch yet.

Malaysian first batch result is officially out :woot:
(about 1.5 hours ago through e-mail)

Thanks @ejatezati for giving us the information beforehand 😅
 
What is the contents of the email. If you dont mind sharing☺

The contents are the placement details that include personal ID, name, university, and departure month.
(First batch result has 17 candidates, 4 among the candidates are going to depart in October. Incidentally, there are 24 MEXT 2016 Malaysia candidates who passed first and second screenings.)

It is also mentioned that the placement is final and no requests to change universities will be entertained. And, for those who obtained any LOA from other universities, they have to contact the universities and inform the universities that they are not going there. Candidates also have to contact the university they are placed into, if the university hasn't started contacting them yet.

Most importantly, the e-mail is attached with a pledge. We have to sign the pledge and send a copy of our passport to the embassy before 5th March 2016 (Friday).

An official letter, together with the university placement and professor details will be sent out to our registered address soon. We have to follow both the instructions in the letter and in the email accordingly.

Wish the second batch result coming out soon!

Hi Eja,
I am in the first batch. Hope the next result will come out soon as my friend is the same boat as you.
 
Hey Everyone,

Received the good news earlier today- officially confirmed to be enrolled at Kyushu University, beginning this April! Plan is to commence as a research student, then to enroll into a masters of law.

I received so much information from this thread, thank you to all of you for your generous contributions- in particular, dmnte, who gave me some particular info about life at Kyushu uni. I hope to assist next year's batch by passing on what I learned about the application process, but for now there's alot to get done before April!
 
Hello everyone!
Congradulation on your final results.
I am from Montenegro, and as it seems still waiting for the result. I was wondering is anyone from Serbia or Bosnia here :O
Best of luck to us in the next batch!
 
Congratulations to my fellow Malaysians who received the good news today.

I got Waseda.
Anybody else going to Waseda?
 
Hi there everyone.

I've been lurking for a while, wanted to just thank everyone for all the help and support you've have shown each other through the application process. It's been lovely to see, I wish I had posted earlier. Also information posted was really helpful, and it was comforting to see other people going through the same experiences as I have through the application process.

I'm from UK and I've just been notified by the embassy that I got placed in Tokyo Uni, my first choice. The long long wait is over finally.

Looking forward to meeting fellow Brits at the reception in March. Also anyone else placed at Todai, maybe we will be crossing paths soon!

Anyway, good luck to everyone else waiting for their placement results. Stay confident!
 
Congrats to everyone!

Some of my friends also got results today. So happy for everyone!

Wow, congratulations! Was Waseda your top-priority? I have also placed Waseda in my preference. I expected to get the result in the end of January actually, surprised that you got it so early. And I am getting so excited to hear my own results.

Thanks! Waseda was my first choice and it was the only LoA I got actually. So it was pretty much a yes or no for me and fortunately Waseda decided to take me in so I'm very excited~

I might spam this thread. just wondering anyone know on mext scholarship ylp result?i try to search all over forum. but didnt see any thread regarding mext scholarship ylp?
 
Hi all! Nice to meet all the Monbusho applicants and those who are thinking to apply. Best of lucks for everyone!
I would like to thank all the people that are posting experiences and information, it was very useful for me.
The results from the embassy were informed. Hopefully I will be going to Nagoya University in October (third option, first and second option were private ones). And here is my problem, if anyone can help me or have experience on this: the University is emphasizing about my level of Japanese, which is between N4 and N5. I´m studying as fast as I can but I do not know if I could reach a N2 or N3 level. And also they told me that, because I will be arriving on October, I will not be able to take the Japanese language courses. So, here is my thing: it is possibly, if I cannot reach the level that the University requires, change to another University in which I could pursue my research plan entirely in English? I´ve heard this from the embassy, and for a moment this tranquilizes me. But I am starting to panic.
Best for those who are waiting!
Thanks!
 
Congratulations to all of you who have been getting the good news of your placement in the universities!

If it doesn't bother you, it would be nice if you could share your status on the spreadsheet so we can all have a general view on the status of the placement process all over the world:

JREF 2016 MEXT Research Scholars - Google Sheets

Good luck to all of you who are still waiting for your placement results.
 
Finally the results are out in Kenya. I'll be going to Tohoku University. Filling in my details in the Google sheet shortly.

It is best you call the embassy
 
I got Kyoto University!

I feel sooooo bad, because it was my 3rd choice and I really wanted to go to Tokyo. I actually could write down Tsukuba instead of Kyoto, and now I feel so stupid.

Well, at least I know that I won't be alone there as one of my internet-friends also got placed there.

So all three of your desired placements were national universities and yet you were placed on your 3rd choice? That's really quite odd, but there must have been a reason for that, economic issues most likely.

I am still waiting for my final placement and the fact that all of you guys have already received your placement makes me both happy and anxious for the results!!
