Before you apply: five checks for this college

  1. Confirm the World Directory entry F0001036 yourself at wdoms.org; the entry describes the school as it reported itself, not its recognition anywhere.
  2. Ask the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare whether the school is currently recognised and whether its graduates are being registered this year.

  4. Get the fee schedule and admission letter from the school's own office, not from an agent, and pay only to the school's account.
  5. Search the agent, consultancy or website you are dealing with on the fraud alerts page before paying anything.

What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0001036) β€” you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 26 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 3.9β˜… β€” read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Japan yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics β€” slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

This hospital saved my life, and I am still receiving care there. The doctors and nurses are very considerate and I am very grateful for this hospital. If you have a mild cold, it can be a burden on other patients with more serious symptoms, so I think it would be better to use a nearby hospital.

The nurses were attentive and the doctors were diligent in coming up with treatment options that helped alleviate any sense of frustration. However, during my hospital stay, the nurses were always more involved than the assistants, which made me feel a little sorry for them.

They are passionate about researching diseases, and the doctors, nurses, and other staff are all young and wonderful. This is a hospital that is working hard to cure difficult diseases, so I hope people don't just go for a check-up like they would at a convenience store.

There's a lot of turmoil surrounding the president. There are calls for his resignation from within the university, and a petition has apparently been launched. The situation is only getting more and more chaotic. It's a shame, as it's not a bad university.

It was my first time undergoing surgery at a medical school. I was surprised to find out there were 11 operating rooms. The nurses in the operating rooms were all beautiful and kind, even wearing masks.

I went to the ENT department. It wasn't too crowded, but the general reception was crowded and it was nerve-wracking.

The parking lot was renovated and expanded last year, so you can now arrive at your appointment without rushing. …

I had a medical examination and they told me where to go next, so the process went smoothly.
