Scholarship
for international students
公開日: 2026-07-22

📣 Applications for the 2nd Semester AY2026 University-Recommended Scholarships are now open.

Purpose

There are two types of scholarships available for international students:

  1. University-Recommended Scholarships
  2. Directly Applied Scholarships (Individual Application)

The "Scholarship Application Form" being collected now is used to register for "1. University-Recommended Scholarships".

Based on the submitted application forms, academic performance, and other criteria, Tottori University will determine the "Recommendation Ranking" for applicants.

As scholarship opportunities open up, students will be contacted in order of their ranking to:

  1. Confirm their intention to apply for the specific scholarship.
  2. Receive formal university recommendation.
