| Summary |
In 2004, the Japan Student Services Organization implemented the “Exemption from Repayment for Graduate School Students with Particularly Outstanding Academic Achievements System,” which enabled the exemption from repayment of all or part of scholarship funds at the end of the allowance period for currently enrolled students with high levels of academic achievement. This survey was conducted to delineate the paths of people who were exempted from repayment. |
