Application Process & Campus Visits

Admits students currently in Grade 8 to Grade 11 (no school-registration or hukou restrictions). Open nationwide. Art / music specialty applicants are given priority.

A Four-Step Application Process

01
Inquire
Speak with our admissions team by phone, chatbot, or campus visit.
02
Visit + entrance test
Come to campus for the written exam and interview. (Art applicants: no on-the-spot drawing required.)
03
Admission
Successful applicants receive an offer letter.
04
Enrollment
Complete fee payment and enrollment. New students can join an online summer prep course (gojūon basics + Japanese culture).

The entrance assessment combines a written exam (logical reasoning) and an interview (communication, attitude, match with the chosen track). Comprehensive applicants with Japanese background are placed via a leveling test; absolute beginners are welcome too. The Art track focuses on the interview — on-the-spot drawing is not required, but you are welcome to bring work.
