AY2024 Special Admission Information

The purpose of this site is to provide applicants with the latest information that may quickly change over time as quickly as possible. Especially, we provide Q&A and errata. You may see some untranslated Japanese texts in this site when some of the articles are not yet translated into English. In such case, we recommend using DeepL machine translator, as DeepL is the best Japanese-English machine translator that we are aware of.

For questions not related with the admission, International Liaison Office will help foreign students.
