Eligibility

   
    To qualify as an exchange student at Keio University, you must meet the following requirements:
   
   

Japanese Language Requirement

   
    There is no Japanese proficiency required to apply to be an exchange students at Keio University. Students are required to take a Japanese language placement test run by the Center for Japanese Studies at the beginning of each semester in order for them to register for the appropriate learning level for Japanese language courses.    
   

Financial Requirement and Scholarships

   
    Be sure you can financially support yourself during the period of study at Keio. The average cost of living expense is at least JPY 130,000/month if you live in university-subsidized student housing. Finding a scholarship when you are in Japan is very difficult. Plan for financial support before arrival. Scholarships such as JASSO are available but are not guaranteed for all the exchange students since the number of recipients is very limited. Those who would like to apply for a JASSO scholarship, please submit the designated application documents along with your student exchange applications. You cannot apply directly for a JASSO scholarship.
