Scholarship students (Some Exceptions for IDS Japanese Students)

Some scholarships are automatically awarded to the qualified students when they are offered admission to the National Graduate Institute of Policy Studies. If so, the Scholarship covers the tuition fee and living expenses for one year. The application, admission and tuition fee will be paid directly to GRIPS and scholars will receive a monthly stipend and, in some cases, allowances for arrival, books/equipment, and study trips. For further information about scholarships, please refer to the scholarship payment regulations.
