    Consciousness of Discrimination in Japan Survey

    I apologize for that. At the very top of the survey, I wrote an explanation of the nature of my research, but perhaps it wasn't clear enough? As for the likert options, I did include a "neutral" option, but my professor had advised me that it would be difficult to analyze the data that way so I...

    Consciousness of Discrimination in Japan Survey

    Thank you so much. Ah yes, as for I-1, that section is modelled after a survey taken here in Japan in 2009. I did this so I am able to compare and analyze the old data with the data I also collect. That option is not present because it's a checkbox type question, in which, if none of those...

    Consciousness of Discrimination in Japan Survey

    Hey pals! I am a student at Kyoto University, and I am conducting a survey on the consciousness of (racial) discrimination in Japan for my research. This survey is targeted towards foreigners who have lived/currently living in Japan. The survey is written in both Japanese and English. It...

    This thread seems pretty inactive nowadays (since we're all here now!), but wonder how everyone's program is doing so far in their respective universities? Share please, I want to know how different it is at various universities!

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    I got my e-ticket, and I'll be arriving at KIX on September 28th. Other than that, that is the most information I've been given. I also made a preference on dorm choice, but apparently it's all chosen by lottery, which is kind of a bummer. Does anyone know anyone that has stayed at the Kyoto...

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    Only from Undergraduate studies students stories so I feel like that irrelevant to us. I feel like anyone that's not trying for the Japanese Studies scholarship have no idea what we are applying for haha. I hope so!!! Congrats to you! I wonder which schools we will all be placed in!!!

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    I think you're in the exact same boat as me! My first post was to ask if there was still a chance that one could be rejected even if you were chosen for the scholarship. This was the email I had received a few days ago: "The Consulate-General of Japan in (my city here, just don't want to...

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    Congratulations!!! All that hard work paid off! I'm curious, how did they notify you? Did they say you passed the screening or the university was chosen already? And did they give you a reason for your rejection last year??

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    I chose Kyoto University, Osaka University and University of the Ryukus (Okinawa). In that "order", I believe. I don't really mind where I suppose, but I wish they were more direct and just gave us all direct answers!!!

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    I did check the box that said even if I didn't get into my top three unis, that I will accept any university that I was placed at. I hope that DOES make a difference. From all the other cases that you know of, have most people gotten accepted after passing both screenings? Thank you for your...

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    Thank you! Good luck to you! The last time I took the JLPT (in 2014) I passed N2, and I had taken courses at a language school in Osaka for 2 years that should have been around N2-N1 level. I was rusty but I have been studying at an advanced level. I do not know how many people in Canada got...

    MEXT Japanese Studies 2017/2018

    Hey guys! I've been following this forum for a while but finally going to post :). I live in Canada, and I applied to the 2017-2018 MEXT Japanese Studies scholarship. I have passed the first screening (exam and interview), got nominated to MEXT by my embassy, and then passed the secondary...
