Overview
The University of Tokyo is offering a reservation-style undergraduate scholarship for students expected to enter in April 2027 who have strong academic potential but face financial difficulty in pursuing university study.
Complete scholarship details
The scholarship is applied for before university admission. Candidates selected provisionally must still pass the University of Tokyo admission process, and the scholarship becomes formal after enrolment and completion of the required scholarship procedures. Applications are submitted through the applicant's high school principal, except for specified equivalency-exam applicants who may apply individually under the published rules.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must fall within the University's published 2027-entry scholarship criteria, including financial-need requirements and admission eligibility. Selection as a scholarship candidate does not guarantee admission to the University of Tokyo.
Tips for this scholarship

- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
