If studying in Japan has always been your ambition, but finances have been your biggest impediment, Sophia University in Tokyo now provides you the opportunity to make that dream a reality. The university’s coveted New Student Scholarship and Adachi Scholarship are open to international and Japanese students for English-taught programs beginning in 2026. Sophia University provides two competitive scholarships at the time of admission, allowing students to apply before enrolling.

Sophia University is a private Jesuit-run research institution in Tokyo, Japan. It was founded by the Jesuits in 1913 and awarded university status in 1928, making it Japan’s first Catholic university. At Sophia University, we strive to develop leaders who collaborate to change the future. Leadership entails more than simply taking the initiative. Leaders of the next generation should be able to bring out the best in those around them, embrace change, and adapt to new difficulties. We are excited to welcome motivated students willing to take on new challenges and excel in their studies at Sophia University.
