Program Costs & Scholarship

Program Costs 2024

The tuition for this program is waived in cases of a mutual exchange agreement. However, we will charge the necessary costs (such as textbooks & material fees, accommodation fee, etc.) as the program cost. Information regarding the total program cost and payment deadline are provided to participating university’s liaison office after we receive students' application forms.

Program costs include the following

  1. Textbooks
  2. Material fees
  3. Entrance fees for excursions
  4. Transportation fees for “Kamakura Tour” conducted in the “Japanese Language” Course
    • “Kamakura” is located south of Tokyo and is home to a famous Buddha statue. 
  5. Housing fees for students living in the dormitory during the program
  6. University facility fees 
  7. Home visit fee (only for students who apply for the home visit)
  8. “Gakkensai” Overseas travel insurance 
    • Even if students have a National Health Insurance policy, they are still liable in worst-case scenarios, so such things as “rescuer’s expense” are not included. They must enroll in Gakkensai Insurance【学研災】(i.e. “Personal Accident Insurance for Students Pursuing Education and Research” provided by JEES [Japan Educational Exchanges and Services]). The enrollment fee for this insurance will be included in the invoice we send you. 

Program costs do not include following

  1. Expenses for meals 
  2. Transportation fees for company visit or excursions (other than the “Kamakura Tour)
  3. Transportation fees between Senshu University and the airport 
  4. Transportation fees between Senshu University and the host families house (for the home visit only)
  5. Entrances fees to places visited for the field research project (for the “Survey of Japanese Culture & History” course only)

  7. Personal spending and/or other miscellaneous costs incurred by each student

Payment Method

Payment Deadline: Mid to Late July, 2024
The program fee for all students should be paid via a telegraphic/wire transfer from your office to the designated bank account. You are responsible for paying all bank charges. For more details, please refer to the invoice you receive.

Paying the program fee one applicant at a time will result in being charged a handling fee (by the bank) for each transaction. Therefore, we highly recommend paying the total program fee for all applicants in a single transaction to avoid paying extra handeling fees.
