Emergency Scholarship Eligibility and Selection

This page explains the academic, financial, and household-change requirements for the Emergency Scholarship, including qualifying circumstances and how applicants are assessed.

Basic eligibility requirements

The Emergency Scholarship is intended for graduate-school and undergraduate students with excellent character and academic performance who have difficulty paying educational expenses or tuition because of a sudden change in household finances. Eligibility requires enrollment at Tokyo Denki University or in its graduate school, motivation to continue academic work, good physical and mental health, and a principal household supporter whose sudden financial change falls within a qualifying category. The student must also be recognized as having difficulty paying educational expenses and as able to continue studying with the loan. For the 2026 School of System Design and Technology information, eligibility is described as being a graduate-school or undergraduate-faculty student with excellent character and academic performance who has difficulty paying tuition.

Qualifying household financial changes

Qualifying sudden changes in the principal household supporter’s financial circumstances include death, disaster damage, long-term medical treatment, unemployment, and business bankruptcy. These circumstances are listed for the 2025 School of System Design and Technology information at Tokyo Senju Campus.

Assessment and selection

The Emergency Scholarship has no regular recruitment schedule. Under the 2025 information for the School of Engineering, a student whose household finances changed within the past year and who has difficulty paying tuition may be considered. Selection takes account of other scholarship borrowing, the household financial change, and the student’s tuition-payment deferral status, with the student considered most suited to the purpose of the Emergency Scholarship selected. Under the 2026 information for the School of System Design and Technology, a student with a household financial change within the past year and difficulty paying tuition is assessed comprehensively, taking account of the loan status of other scholarships, the household financial circumstances, tuition-deferral circumstances, and other factors.
