The MEXT scholarship application process can happen in two ways. One based on the recommendation by Embassy. These applicants undergo initial screening tests, and interviews before submitting their MEXT application and documentation for admissions. Alternatively, the next way to apply for MEXT schoalrship is through university recommendations.

Percentage required for MEXT scholarships in Japan are as follows:

  • Minimum 80% in X, XI and XII for undergraduate admissions.
  • Minimum 70% in undergraduate courses for postgraduate or doctoral courses admissions.
  • Minimum percentage will vary with Japanese and Technology College students.

Merely qualifying with the minimum percentagescore does not ensure the MEXT scholarship. Applicans have to also fulfil the age criteria.
