Due to the expansion of COVID-19 infection, household income and part-time income have decreased significantly, and the economic impact on student life has become remarkable.
　Therefore, we will implement the Japan Student Services Organization "Emergency Special Interest-free Loan Type Scholarship", which provides special loans for a certain period of time as emergency support.
　This scholarship is provided by the government to compensate for the interest amount while utilizing the second-class scholarship (interest-bearing) system and lend it at virtually interest-free.
　The procedure is as follows. If you wish to apply, the Student Support Group will distribute the application documents, so please contact the following office.
