Can they take the scholarship from you?

🍾 uhm...this is not a topic for this kind of conversations, and I believe there's is no topic for this, sorry Mike Cash but I think leaguliar is right, maybe my opinion is not important but as I can see more then one or two people here would agree with me...I just think you rushed with your first post and now trying to defend it instead of simply admitting you did sound a little bit..rude...that's all, no need to make it even worse...no point guys come on 🌹

actually, this just made the person who asked for help right when she says that sometimes asking for help gets you in trouble...

i agree, Mike was straightforward in reply and so it looks harsh. i think nice and kind words for someone suffering would not loose you war. :)
 
Short version: they can't take the scholarship away from you. But do your best to pass those classes.
Now, your situation is this: you're attending a yearly Japanese language and culture course. Each university has different requirements for passing the course - your university should have clearly informed you about theirs. Anyway, if you fail to fulfil those criteria during two semesters, you fail the course and have to return the whole yearly amount of scholarship to MEXT. I never heard of this happening in real life, most probably because (Japanese culture specifics follow) a student's failure is also an university's failure, and, of course, MEXT gets to know about it, so it makes universities look bad. Therefore, universities will do what they can to drag those students out of the crap they have gotten themselves into.
This is based on my experience as a nikkensei at Saitama University, 2007/2008. Don't think much has changed about the program as a whole (I might be wrong), but definitely check your university requirements - 10 classes during one semester is a lot, I was expected to pass 8 during two semesters. And, unless your university's requirements are really strange, you can make up for those failed classes in the summer semester. But you'd prefer to have little to do and worry about during Japanese summer, trust me.
