The Rikkyo Promising Future Scholarship is subject to having the residence status of “Student” at the time of admission and enrollment at Rikkyo University. Thus, even if you meet the admissions requirements for the Rikkyo Promising Future Scholarship, if you do not have the residence status of “Student” at the time of your admission and enrollment at Rikkyo University, you will not be eligible for the Scholarship.
-
A note to those who hold citizenship in Japan and another country: Based on Japanese Law (Article 61 of the Immigration Control and Refuge and Recognition Act) entry and stay in Japan falls under the return to Japan of Japanese nationals, and thus, the conditions for receiving the Rikkyo Promising Future Scholarship will not be met.
The academic requirements listed below (by type and/or region) show the minimum requirements for admission and for the Rikkyo Promising Future Scholarship. Note that, even if the applicant satisfies the minimum requirements for admission or the Rikkyo Promising Future Scholarship, neither are guaranteed.
