2025 Applicationguideline E-8
2025 Applicationguideline E-8
Applications with critical flaws will not be accepted. When flaws are found in the content of an application,
JSPS will not as a rule contact the host institution for clarification. Please note, therefore, that the application
will be screened with the flaws remaining.
As the information (e.g. candidate’s name, nationality and date of birth) entered in the electronic
application system will be printed on the certificate issued when the candidate is selected, be sure that
the information is entered correctly. If there should be a difference in the spelling of the candidate’s name or
other information, JSPS will neither seek to confirm the proper spelling nor check with the host institution.
Host institutions should submit applications after checking that all of the information contained in them is
accurate.
Unsuccessful candidates (invited overseas researchers) are not directly notified of their selection results.
Applicants (host researchers) should notify them of the results.
Individual requests for selection results are not accepted.
Successful candidates (invited overseas researchers) must start their fellowship during the period specified in
their Award Letter. If not, the fellowship will be revoked.
