Japan Opens Applications for Fully Funded MEXT Scholarship 2026 for Pakistani Students

Japan has opened applications for the fully funded MEXT Scholarship 2026, offering Pakistani students an opportunity to pursue higher education in Japan with comprehensive financial support. The scholarship is administered by Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and is designed to attract talented students from around the world.

The MEXT Scholarship covers full tuition fees, admission charges, and academic expenses, along with a monthly living stipend to support accommodation and daily needs. In addition, selected students receive book allowances and round-trip airfare between Pakistan and Japan, allowing them to study without financial burden.

Pakistani students can apply for undergraduate, master’s, and PhD programs across a wide range of academic disciplines, including science, engineering, social sciences, humanities, and technology. Prior knowledge of the Japanese language is not mandatory at the time of application, as successful candidates are typically provided with preparatory Japanese language training before beginning their degree programs.

Applications must be submitted through the Embassy of Japan in Islamabad in accordance with the official guidelines, eligibility criteria, and deadlines announced by the embassy. Candidates are advised to carefully review the requirements and prepare the necessary documents to ensure timely submission.
