I will describe the support system for foreign roots students at Kansai University of International Studies.Although there are still students with foreign roots enrolled at our university, we have established a comprehensive support system, such as providing escort-type learning support that is close to each student.2024 Special Entrance Examinationwill introduce a new scholarship for students with foreign roots (equivalent to 30% of the tuition fee in the first year. From the second year onwards, up to 2% of the tuition fee will be supported depending on the grades). We will expand our support system.
Below is an explanation of the support system at our university.It is written in simple Japanese, assuming students and parents who are not confident in Japanese.
At our university, we provide a variety of support so that students with foreign roots can study with peace of mind.

There is also a place for "consultation about anything", so you can respond to various questions and consultations.
Even after entering the university, there are many things to worry about, especially in the beginning.
For such people, there is an activity period called "Freshman Week," an orientation.
During this period, all the professors of the department participate and carefully advise each student on how to choose classes, how to register for classes, and so on.Also, during this period, you will have to take a Japanese language proficiency test.Japanese subjects are not required for graduation, but many students feel uneasy about "reading" and "writing" in particular.We will carefully support you in selecting subjects so that you can meet the graduation requirements while taking as many Japanese subjects as you need.
When classes begin, senior students (called “mentors”) provide care and support to first-year students.
From the same student's point of view, he will face your concerns.Of course, the teacher will also support you.At our university, each student is assigned an advisor who can provide advice on everything from course guidance to career counseling.
