Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan offers a study abroad with fee-paying program for undergraduates and graduates in any subject in semester 3 (min) and has never participated in any program from the International Office. This program is an alternative to the previous exchange program which allows students to independently apply to Tokyo Tech. In this program, students are able to do research (taking courses is optional, but only taking courses is unacceptable.) with student status and study conditions similar to participants in the exchange programs (ACAP/YSEP) covered by the tuition waiver. Students have to apply independently. Please see the application procedures stated on Tokyo Tech’s website for further instructions.
