If you are interested in going on an exchange program, you have probably met with the SEAs. They have a small booth in the Academic Office, but this semester the SEA Booth was available via Zoom. They also hold events such as Student Exchange Cafés throughout the semester. The SEAs are there to answer all of your questions on how to choose a school and how can you apply.

All international students have permission to be in Japan (a visa) for studying at a university. If an international student wants to do something not covered by their visa – like work a part time job, serve as a TA, take an internship, or participate in certain local exchange events – they must first apply for and get a work permit. You can apply for a work permit even if you haven't found a part-time job or an internship yet, so we recommend applying for one in advance.
