Yeah, that would be great! And more about interview

Yeah not a lot of people are talking about it and that’s the only one I want to apply for

please can I ask about if biology and chemistry were difficult. or about the interview and when did you take the exams

​@@koski1202 Dear Ko ski, I'm sorry that I know very little about your research field, but I know many friends who are similar to your situation who have passed the 1st screening and got their letters of acceptance. In case you didn't know, I'm an applicant from China, and we only have doctoral program for this scholarship, so my answer may not be able to help you since the details of screening may be different depending on the program and embassies. You ask me about the interview and exams. We applicants in China took the interview on May 10, and there was no exam due to the pandemic. As for the "applying letter of acceptance" period which you may also be interested in, there may be online interviews which really depends on the departments and graduate schools, and only a few of applicants were required by their prospective professors to take an online interview during the letter of acceptance application phase. I'll be glad to answer your further questions if you have any :) Good luck!

@Tala Qbelat I'm not "required" to provide published papers, but I think it would be a vital aspect that MEXT officials take in consideration.

@Tala Qbelat You are welcome. Wish you all the best.

@@quentinw2464 hey man, first of all, congrats on your acceptance! I want to know what's the interview questions look like if you can share. I'm planning to apply this year

please can I ask,,was bio and chemistry difficult?? when did you take the exams? and what about interview

Congratulations 🎉

To enter Japan you are required to have around 36k to 38k USD for up to two years stay by the time that you apply and get your visa.

@@ethelindamorte921 do you need to show this much balance even if you are coming through scholarship?

Hey first congrats , ummm can u pleeaaaase give me like what does the math , bio and chem tests cover like umm the program as a whole

Congratulations!! All the rest will depend on the following factors: 1) how well will you do on exams 2) what is the competition 3) how “useful” is your research for Japan 4) how well you will perform on interview. So, as long as you score high on exams, prove that your research topic is relevant to Japan and your country, plus show your interest in Japanese culture on the interview, you should be OK!!

@@theelitegamer4531 heyy thank you! I took only English Japanese and math as I didn’t choose to apply for natural sciences! Maths was pretty hard and they told me that I had only 2 correct answers lol but I got high scores both from English and Japanese so I hope that my math score won’t be a problem lol

@@TokyoStateofMind I have actually passed the interview too and I was recommended by my country’s embassy!! I’m applying as an undergraduate student so I don’t have a research plan. I just wanted to know what are the chances of passing the second screening after passing the first one.

@@Cupcakemara as long as your information on the application is not falsified and you there is a supervisor willing to take you, your chances are 99.9%!

nuestro amigo de Costa Rica nos ayudó. nos alegra que lo hayas encontrado útil

Me too :)

Hey! Unfortunately, we don't know what are the chances, as a University recommeded procedure takes more time and quite unpredictable and vary year by year. Still, we wish you goodluck!

Hello! It depends on which month you graduate, if it's June, then I think it's fine, you can ask your school to give you a paper with your current grades and expected grades and that you're about to gradute soon, I think embassy would accept that, but I would recommend you to check info at japanese embassy of your country!

It really depends on 1. The country you are coming from 2. The competition 3. What is the diplomatic relationship between your country and Japan 4. How relevant is your research to Japan 5. How good are your English and Japanese if the embassy in your country judges your eligibility by the scores of these tests. I would say that the best thing you can do is find someone who already won the scholarship from your country and ask them for the country-specific information. What matters is not your grades but how well-informed about your situation you are. Good luck with everything!

Not necessarily- just write everything that is applicable to the subject you will research in Japan

Yes

coming soon! stay tuned to see it next week!

go to www.studyinjapan.go.jp/en/. good luck!

No, you will get your visa once you are selected! Good luck with everything!!

Hmm

There should be some programs related to it, some of our acquaintances studied it through MEXT technical college program so you should definitely have a look on the web!

@@TokyoStateofMind ok ✅ thanks for replying

Yes it is.

Yes, you can study in Japan in English. There are plenty of English programs! 😄but it’s going to be challenging to live here with zero Japanese as most Japanese people don’t speak English.

@@TokyoStateofMind thank you for info also is ielts sore neessery for the appliation?

Hi, Kumar! Congrats on getting the letter! As we stated in our videos, the selection heavily depends on the university and the guidelines might have changed because of corona. Ee have never heard about a separate selection before so probably it’s a new rule. We would encourage you to contact MEXT or other applicants for 2021 to learn about it! Good luck!

Sending prayers to you good luck 😊

​@@TokyoStateofMind I was hoping you would touch more on the GPA issue...Sometimes we get discouraged to apply for this scholarship because some vlogs always say if you dont have a minimum of 2.30 on the MEXT scale then forget about being selected for the scholarship. For instance, I want to apply for a PhD, I have 3 publications, plenty of research experience, but my MSc gpa is 2.25 on MEXT scale, so would you advice me to apply or I should just accept that I dont qualify??

Unfortunately we don’t have experience with MEXT undergrad programs, so please refer to transenz blog with this question! But to my knowledge, you are expected to be under age of 22 to do so. Anyways, don’t hesitate to ask Travis and good luck with the program!

@@TokyoStateofMind thank you for this. unfortunately, i have gone past 22y. nevertheless, i'll try to ask Sir Travis.

@@yuugaouzuki18 , just don’t give up, we will post more episodes about other scholarships and opportunities, so that even if not for MEXT, you will be able to make it here!

@@yuugaouzuki18 i think it is pushed up to 24 now
