Financial Aid for Degree Seeking Students

1. Tuition Relief

In acknowledgement of the financial burden faced by privately financed international students, Tokyo Kasei University has established a tuition relief system to help students continue the pursuit of their studies.
In accordance with University regulations, when an application is submitted and eligibility for relief is approved by the school, part of the tuition fee will be waived. In such cases tuition fees will generally be reduced by around 30%.

Career Supports

Tokyo Kasei University and Tokyo Kasei University Junior College offer a wide variety of career support resources so that their students can achieve mental and financial independence as active women in society.

As globalization continues to transform Japanese society and employment patterns change, living a fulfilling life in an era when lifetimes can last a century necessarily entail our acceptance of diverse values as well as the ability to think responsibly and act independently. The Career Support Office and Academic Affairs Office promote career education in collaboration with each department and major based on the policies of each department.

Finding Employment and Pursuing Further Studies

サブメニュー開閉

The Career Support Office at the Student Support Center and Academic Affairs Office at the Sayama Academic Affairs Section provide guidance and support with regard to career options for current students (including employment, transfers, graduate school, and overseas study). We also conduct activities in connection with helping our alumni find reemployment. For current students, selecting a future course is a crucial decision – one that will determine what they do after graduation, how they achieve self-realization in the course of our lives, and how they will make a difference as contributing members of society. We support students in a variety of ways in order that they will be able to enter occupations or pursue further education as befits their individual aptitudes and abilities. In terms of employment support, we offer a variety of services, including (1) recommendation and referral to recruiters, (2) counseling and interviews, and (3) issuance of letters of recommendation and character references, as well as (4) the provision of guidance for skills training and computers to use for information gathering and (5) arranging a variety of mock tests for professional examinations. The Employment Resources Corner is stocked with a range of materials including both information on corporate and professional employment as well as resources on transferring to other universities and graduate schools.
