How to Apply

Students from our partner universities must be nominated by their home institutions before starting the application process. The home institution should submit the nomination along with the student's basic information at least one month before the application deadline. Please note that a nomination does not guarantee admission to the exchange program at Joshibi, as space availability can vary each year.

The nominated student must complete an online application form with their personal data and current courses.
