Scholarships of Public and Private Foundations

(Please note that Osaka Kyoiku University does not have a scholarship system itself.) Most scholarships by public and private organizations are limited to international students already enrolled at Osaka Kyoiku University and are also limited in the number of possible applicants. For information on Japanese Government (Monbukagakusho) Scholarships, please contact the nearest Japanese embassy or consulate in your home country.

Tuition Exemptions (fiscal year 2005)

In special cases where a student has financial difficulties in paying tuition but has otherwise shown excellent scholastic achievement, or for other unavoidable reasons, the university may grant the student a tuition waiver, grace of collection or permit payment by monthly installments upon application by the student and selection by the University. Applicants for this system are requested to consult the Student Affairs Section.

However, please note that this system is not applicable to research students and auditors. Application should be made separately for each semester. Applications will be accepted in late April for the first semester and in the middle of September for the second semester. The submission dates are printed on the application form. Please take due caution to avoid overlooking them.
