Can you please send me, i'm stuck with the placement and field of study form -_- ... Thank you !!!Hi everyone!
I'm really glad to see yet another great thread full of inspired people!
I wish you guys all the best!
For those who have read the previous threads, I had been a very active member in Monbukagakusho 2016 thread!
Last year I passed all the exams and even aced the interview, but was rejected in the secondary screening due to being underaged!
But I hope I do make it this time.
For those of you who need any advice from my experience on the exams or interview, feel free to let me know!
also, I have all the papers from 2005-2015! if anyone wants to study them inbox me please
Let's do it guys, the applications are almost here, let's give our best and grab our dreams!
Are the questions on the application supposed to be answered in essay format or are they just normal questions? I'd rather not, but i can totally do essays if need be.
Ah, well in that case, i guess straightforward answers are due. Two examples would be "What kind of impression do you have of Japan?" and " What academic field would you like to study in Japan?".
The second one has obvious answers, but i can't really tell if they want one of the three you get to choose or all three and that's it. And in the "Papers of research form", you're asked what you would like to study and why. I'm assuming the answer also has to fit the allocated space there too.
Hi, does anyone know what they expect from the recomendaria letter? I'm having a problem with tgis, since my principal doesn't know me well and so he doesn't know what to write that won't be generic.

Thanks for the help~Based on the sample questions you cited, I believe you have to answer it in essay form. And you must sound really convincing. Because Japan government fear that international students half heartedly want to pursue their degree in their country and would soon leave the country without finishing the course. So your essay must sound like words with conviction. If there's an instruction wherein you get to attached additional paper for such discussion then feel free to do so. But my advice would be, make your answer concise and comprehensible= use simple English words only.
thank you ..so much..now i can concentrate without worrying about that.....and yeah..is maths eam really hard?????...like they say its more like university level questions in maths oneThat's correct. If you go through the process this year and you get accepted, you'll go to Japan in April 2017.
Just make your essay as concise as possible. Then in the interview portion you can elaborate on it once asked.Thanks for the help~
There isn't an instruction to use additional paper, so does that mean i type it in the space on the application? I heard that changing the application in any way isn't allowed so i was kind of scared to write too much.
hi guys ,
it has been 13 days since i sent my field and didn't get an answer yet ! is it normal? should i worry about it??
Hello Wool,I wanted to ask if you have to apply to a university in Japan prior to applying for the scholarship, or after, or do they just pick one for you?
Hello Wool,
If you will be applying through University Recommendation, you email your prospect adviser/sensei at Japan first. Usually you would be able to find their email address online via University website.
Write a letter (via email) and make sure to highlight your achievements and credentials, such as degree sought, publications such as thesis, and reason why you'd like to work under your sensei's supervision. Wait for your sensei's reply. (This applies for all degree level: BS, MS, Ph.D)
For graduate course based on my experience (since undergraduate application has different process, ask +Collagen for this info):
There is an online application to which you'd upload scanned documents such as TOR, diploma, passport, recommendations. Wait for their assessment on your documents, for sometimes they would ask for more supporting docs.
*First screening would be done on the basis of these documents and the interview via Skype. If you passed on the first screening (meaning the University accepted you), the next screening would determine if they would consider to recommend you on scholarship such as mext.
*2nd screening (for you to be a MEXT candidate in particular): EMAIL-BASED exam-
3 professors from different fields would email you 3 questions each.
(A total of 9 questions). You might receive all their 1st questions at the same time. So you'd better use your time wisely. As soon as you email back your answer, then will you get the 2nd question. But bear in mind that for every question, you would only be given 24 hours to answer it. The faster you submit your answer the more credible you would be. Make your answer concise and comprehensible. Make it straightforward. They usually ask for answers within the range of 200-400 words.
After the 2nd screening. If blessed enough to pass again, then the University would email you an acceptance letter, that they would accept you as their student by October (insert year) and they selected you as final candidate for MEXT.
3rd step: Japanese government will dselect among the final candidates to whom they'd grant scholarships.
what type of envelope should we use to post our documents?
can we use the transparent file ?
what should we write on it?
