1. Issuance of Pre-arrival Admission Approval
The basic requirement is for the university or graduate school that overseas students (including research students) want to enter to have in effect a system for issuing pre-arrival approval and be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education and Science (MEXT). Therefore, overseas students need to check in advance as to whether the institution they wish to enter has a system for issuing pre-arrival admission approval. When applying for admission to that university or graduate school, students are advised to confirm in advance its application period and be sure to carry out their application processing within that period.
2. Domicile
Universities that accept overseas students are encouraged to assist them in securing lodging in dormitories or other university domicile for the first year after admittance so that they can concentrate on their studies. When universities are unable to provide on-campus domicile, they are encouraged to introduce students to off'- campus domicile in public or private housing.

The admitting university is to issue a "Certificate of Eligibility for Residence Status" for overseas
students selected for this Yoneyama scholarship. (The Immigration Bureau requires that the student's
admitting university issue this certificate.)

The admitting university issues a "Certificate of Eligibility for Residence Status" for the selected overseas
student. This certificate, which is required in visa processing, is submitted to the Immigration Bureau
(Ministry of Justice) as a document providing financial guarantee for the student.
Yoneyama Foundation issues selected students a "Certificate of Acceptance," which includes the amounts
of the monthly scholarship, the supplemental, and the period of the scholarship. This certificate is another
document providing financial guarantee for the Yoneyama scholar.
