Program Philosophy
The Examination for Japanese University Admission for International Students, or EJU, is more than an entrance-examination requirement.
Preparing for the EJU is also a learning process through which students develop the skills needed to study, think independently, identify challenges, and solve problems at Japanese universities.
This program develops the ability to:
• Read and understand texts logically
• Organize and express one’s own ideas
• Make sound judgments within a limited time
• Continue learning and thinking independently at university
Our goal is not simply to help students achieve their target EJU scores.
We prepare them to learn, contribute, and succeed at Japanese universities.
