| Notes for the application |
- You are not allowed to withdraw from the program once you are selected as a nominee. If you withdraw from the programs, you are no longer eligible to apply any other Waseda University Study Abroad programs.
- Application to both CIE study abroad programs and undergraduate or graduate interdivision programs is not permitted. However, it is possible to submit initial web applications to both programs. In some cases, the results of the interdivision programs will be announced prior to the deadline for application submission to the CIE. If a student is selected for an interdivision program prior to the deadline for application submission to the CIE, the student can then withdraw from the CIE program application process.
- Being nominated by Waseda University means you are now eligible to apply to the host university. Please note that the final decision concerning your admission rests with the host university.
- All the credits you earn at the host university may not be transferred to Waseda University. Whether or not your credit will be approved depends on your undergraduate or graduate school. Therefore, please consult with your department before applying as the time taken to complete your degree may be prolonged based on your credit acquisition circumstance. Please note that in some cases graduation in 4 years (undergraduate) may not be possible.
- Please note that, depending on the program, you may not be able to register for all the classes you wish to take due to prerequisite requirements, limits on student numbers, and other factors.
- Students participating in these Waseda study abroad programs must join the designated Waseda University overseas health insurance program.
