Hello Aspirant,

If you are a 12th cleared science student from India and you want to do medicine in Japan, here is how:

  1. Select a University: Find Japanese Colleges / Universities, which offers MBBS or equivalent course (generally an MD Program).
  2. Language Requirements: Most Medical courses in Japan, education is in Japanese, so you would need to clear JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) - N2 or N1 is ideal.
  3. Entrance Exams: You will most likely need to clear the EJU (Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students), and a university or individual entrance test or interview.
  4. Apply for Admission: Once you have done your shortlisting of universities, check the admission guidelines. This will be available on the official website of the universities, so you will need to confirm the deadline and admission process. You will have to submit academic documents, test scores, a copy of your passport, and a Statement of Purpose.
  5. Student Visa: After being selected, you need to submit an application for a student Visa at the Japanese embassy in India.
  6. Scholarships: You can apply for MEXT scholarship, JASSO, universities scholarships, MEXT assists and provide financial support to students.
