    Pre-admission Notice

    After the written test, interview, based on the content of registration and examination results, participating universities will give "pre-admission" notification to candidates who meet their self-admission criteria.
    These "pre-admissions" will be posted online or at designated venues on the dates indicated in the examination schedules.
    In addition, the "pre-admission" is divided into four types of "OFFER". The eligibility conditions, tuition remission and scholarship and other treatment offered by each kind of "offer" are different, please note.
    At the same time, these "pre-admissions" are internal decisions of each university. If candidates contact with the Examination Committee by phone or email to inquire about relevant matters, the Examination Committee can not answer any questions.

    (1) Types of "Pre-admission"

    'Pre-admission' is a qualification notice that comprehensive evaluates the candidates' current academic qualifications and themselves, including university admission funds, tuition fees, scholarships and other admission conditions.
    As a prerequisite for this qualification to be translated into final admission, candidates need to master Advanced Japanese language ability. Some 'pre-admission' requires candidates only to master Advanced Japanese ability to be admitted, while other 'pre-admissions' require candidates to achieve certain results in some external examinations in addition to their Japanese ability. There are differences among all kinds of 'pre-admissions'.

    A) Unconditional OFFER

    The university has judged that the student's academic ability and comprehensive quality are in line with requirements of the university. As long as you complete the preparatory courses, and then obtain a score equivalent to JLPT N2 or above, you can enter the school.
    Only one such OFFER can be selected.

    B) Conditional OFFER with interview

    As long as you complete the preparatory courses, then obtain a score equivalent to JLPT N2 or above, and confirm the learning status of Japanese at the final interview, you are admitted after passing the examination. In addition, when there are subjects taught in English, students will be required to submit their English scores or conduct an interview in English.

    C) Conditional OFFER

    The university has judged that the student's academic ability and comprehensive quality are in line with requirements of the university. As long as you complete the preparatory courses, and then obtain a score equivalent to JLPT N2 or above, and take other appointed interviews and written tests, finally you will be admitted or not according to this.
    You can select two such OFFERs at the same time.

    D) JPUE conditional OFFER

    Although the university does not give a pre-admission, there would be a higher pass rate if the students applied, so the Examination Committee judges that the possibility of qualifying after the students submitted for the examination would be very high, and issues a qualified notice to the students. As long as you complete the preparatory courses, then get a score equal to JLPT N2 or above, and participate in other appointed interviews and written tests, finally you will be admitted or not according to this.
    When choosing such OFFER, you can choose two at the same time.

    (2) Notes on OFFER Notification

    A university may grant a number of "pre-admissions" to different departments and under different conditions.
    Some universities may offer different kinds of "pre-admissions" as mentioned above.
    The "pre-admission" obtained through JPUE is only applicable to examinations within the scope of JPUE. It is not suitable for other colleges’ entrance examinations.

    Pre-admission Winners Meeting

    Each region will set up a 'guardian's instruction meeting' for guardians of students who have received 'pre-admission', and a 'University guidance meeting' for students and their guardians to attend at the same time.

    Preparatory Courses

    "Preparatory courses" refers to the preparatory courses that students who have obtained “pre-admission” in the JPUE shall take before studying in Japan.

Through the rhythm of 90 minutes for each class of four classes a day, in this independently developed tutorial, students conquer small goals one after another and master proficient oral conversation skills unconsciously. Students who are full of Chinese characters can reach the level of Advanced Japanese in a total of 360 class hours in half a year, while those who are not full of Chinese characters can reach the level of Advanced Japanese in a year of 720 class hours.
    Through studying this course, students can finally acquire the Advanced Japanese ability to listen to the teachers normally in Japanese universities, which is equivalent to four skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing in Japanese proficiency test N2 and above.

    University Enrollment / Final Interview

    Students obtaining “Pre-admission” need to take “Preparatory Courses” within six months, so as to acquire their Advanced Japanese ability, then submit their application to the desired school and attend the final interview.

    As mentioned above, Pre-admissions are divided into the following four categories.
    (1)Unconditional OFFER
    (2) Conditional OFFER with interview
    (3) Conditional OFFER
    (4) JPUE conditional OFFER

    The types of Pre-admission that need final interview are (2) and (3) and (4) above.
    When obtaining pre-admission for Category 3, you may be asked professional-related questions in the final interview, or you may need to submit additional test scores as supplementary materials in addition to Japanese learning. Such kind of pre-admission is slightly more difficult than other types. Please be careful when choosing.

    Admission / Visa Application

    After the final interview is completed, the university will make the final admission decision. Typically, the results are announced within a few days and communicated to the examination committee, and the official 'cceptance Letter'will be sent to the student.

    Upon receiving the 'cceptance Letter,'the student will be required to make payment for the admission fee and a portion of the tuition fees as part of the enrollment process. This payment should be transferred to the university's designated account from abroad. Once the university confirms receipt of the payment, an 'dmission Permit'will be issued. With this 'Admission Permit,' the student can proceed to apply for a 'Certificate of Eligibility' with the Immigration Services Agency of Japan.

    Typically, the student will need to submit documents such as the 'High School Graduation Certificate,' 'High School Transcript,' 'Family Register,' 'Financial Support Statement,' 'Proof of Financial Supporter's Bank Balance,' and 'Proof of Financial Supporter's Income.' After ensuring that all required documents are complete and there are no discrepancies in the application form, the documents are submitted to the Immigration Services Agency of Japan. The 'Certificate of Eligibility' is usually issued within about two months.

    With the 'Certificate of Eligibility,' the student can then proceed to apply for a formal 'Student Visa' at the nearest Japanese embassy or consulate abroad. After a few weeks, the student visa will be issued, and the student will be able to travel to Japan officially.

    Go to Japan / College Entrance

    In each region, a 'Departure Ceremony' will be held for students who have passed the JPUE and will be studying at Japanese universities. This ceremony is an opportunity to bid farewell to classmates and faculty while also marking the beginning of a new journey. During the ceremony, information and important details regarding traveling to Japan and living there will also be provided.

    Once the 'Student Visa' is issued, you will begin preparing for your departure. This includes finalizing your travel schedule and arranging your flight. Additionally, consider finding accommodation based on the university's location and surrounding environment. While some universities may provide dormitories, you may need to rent an apartment or a condominium on your own. If you choose to rent independently, it is advisable to visit and inspect the accommodation before signing a lease. Many cases require a guarantor for renting, and you might consider using a guarantor service if needed.

    Upon arrival in Japan, you will need to arrange for airport pickup, complete resident registration, open a bank account, and sign up for a mobile phone plan. Universities often provide guidance for these tasks, but in the case of large comprehensive universities, you might need to handle these matters independently. If you encounter any issues or need assistance, you can consult the administrative office in your area for appropriate advice.
