Study in Japan & Korea β for Asian students
Japan and South Korea offer Asian students the best-value path to a top university, with the MEXT and GKS government scholarships covering tuition, living costs, and even airfare.
Studying within Asia means staying closer to home culturally and geographically while accessing some of the world's most respected universities. Japan's University of Tokyo and Kyoto University and Korea's KAIST, POSTECH, and Seoul National University all rank globally, with growing numbers of English-taught graduate programmes opening these doors wider for Asian applicants.
The standout feature of the region is its fully-funded government scholarships. Japan's MEXT scholarship and Korea's Global Korea Scholarship cover tuition and provide a living allowance, turning a degree from a top institution into a genuinely affordable, often free, prospect for talented students from across Asia.
MEXT and GKS fully-funded scholarships
Japan's MEXT scholarship, administered through Japanese embassies, covers tuition and a monthly living allowance and is among the most generous government scholarships available to Asian students. Korea's GKS, run by NIIED, offers a comparable package and has expanded to attract more international applicants.
Both programmes are competitive and run on annual cycles, with embassy-route applications typically opening months before the academic year, so early preparation of academic records and a strong study plan is essential.
English-taught options and tech careers
While JLPT and TOPIK proficiency open the widest range of courses, both countries now offer substantial English-taught graduate programmes in engineering, computer science, and the sciences. Graduates can move into Japan's and Korea's advanced technology and manufacturing industries through job-search visas after completing their studies.
