New National Financial Support Program for Receiving Higher Education
Sophia University has been approved by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) as an eligible school for the New Higher Education Support System that was started in the 2020 academic year. Under this program, Japanese and undergraduate students are qualified to receive tuition reduction and monthly stipend from the government. The program also supports support for households with multiple children (tuition reductions and exemptions only), which began in the 2025 fiscal year.
Please refer to the “Japan’s New Higher Education Support System (Reduction/Exemption of Tuition Fees and Scholarship Grants)” page (only available in Japanese) on Web Piloti for more detailed information if you are eligible.
