JASSO Scholarship
In 2011, JASSO (Japan Student Support Organization) started
offering a new scholarship scheme for international students
who study in Japan for no longer than three months. The JShIP program was designed to fit into this scholarship
category. In FY 2015, Osaka University successfully obtains
certain amount of financial support for the J-ShIP 2015 -2016
participants, J-ShIP summer and J-ShIP winter students, using
this scholarship initiative. The JASSO grant of 160,000 JPY
(80,000 JPY for Mid Summer) will be offered for well qualified
students.
