Applicants must submit their completed online application form via their My TIU Page, and all required physical documents, by 5:00 pm (UTC+9 Japan Standard Time) on the date of application deadline. The online form and the physical materials must be received by the E-Track Admissions Center by the deadline. Late materials will not be accepted. Please send documents well before the deadline to ensure they arrive on time.
Applicants from Bangladesh, Nepal and other countries that have had longer wait times for visa issuance are encouraged to apply for the first or second application period of the spring or fall intake, respectively. Applying for the third application period may significantly increase the risk of late visa issuance.
Rejected applicants and admitted applicants who withdraw cannot re-apply for the same intake, but can apply for the next intake.
