UWC ISAK Japan firmly believes that all students should have access to an outstanding education, regardless of financial circumstances.

We are committed to providing financial assistance to students who demonstrate financial need. All students are welcome to apply for need-based financial assistance (full and partial scholarships), regardless of country of residence.

Full scholarships cover the cost of tuition, room and board, and the annual facility fee. Partial scholarships offer a reduced rate for tuition, room and board, and the annual facility fee. Partial scholarships can range from 50,000 JPY to 98% of the cost of tuition, based on each student’s unique financial needs.

If you are applying to Grade 10 for the 2018-2019 school year and you wish to apply for financial assistance, your first step is to read the Financial Assistance FAQ.

Next, download the Financial Assistance Application (available from Oct. 1, 2017), complete the forms and return by email to: financialassistance@uwcisak.jp. The deadline for submitting the Financial Assistance Application is the same as the deadline for your online application and other required documents.

Accepted students will be notified of their financial assistance awards when they receive their offer of acceptance from UWC ISAK Japan.

IMPORTANT: If you think you will need financial assistance to help cover the cost of your education during your time at UWC ISAK Japan, you MUST apply for financial assistance in Grade 10. We will not be able to guarantee financial assistance in subsequent years if you did not apply for financial assistance in Grade 10.

Scholarships, both full and partial, are available to all 17 of the UWC schools and colleges.

These are allocated to successful applicants via the 130 UWC national committees around the world, rather than by the UWCs directly. If you are interested in applying to UWC for Grade 11, please contact your home country UWC national committee. They will advise you about the scholarships available to award and provide details about their annual selection process. This varies from country to country.

A complete list of these committees and more information can be found here.
