There are many financial merits in the exchange program for students from our affiliated institutions: the University of Newcastle, South Seattle Community College and Chang Shin College.
First of all, they will be wholly or partly granted waiver of tuition fees at Ube Frontier University or Ube Frontier College in accordance with each exchange agreement, because students participating in the program pay their tuition directly to their home institution. However, textbooks and other learning materials will be the financial responsibility of exchange students.
Secondly, accommodation fee is as reasonable as 15,000 yen a month when College House, which is later introduced in the section of Accommodation, is chosen for the place of stay.
And finally, the following is very important and much attention is needed:
A "Short term Student Exchange Promotion Scholarship" can be offered by Nihongakuseishienkikou or the Japan Student Services Organization (JASSO). If the Scholarship is granted, students in the program will given economy class air tickets between the (international) airports nearest to your city and Ube plus a settling-in allowance of 25,000 yen upon arrival at Ube. As far as our institutions are concerned, the Scholarship is on the premise that the use of the UMAP Credit Transfer Scheme is possible, which will be explained later in UMAP Credit Transfer Scheme (UCTS). The "Short term Student Exchange Promotion Scholarship" has been available for Newcastle, Chang Shin and Seattle students so far.
