In case you do not find any partner universities that meet your needs or you wish to study at a graduate school abroad after graduating from Waseda University, you will need to look for a university and organize your study on your own. Please note that the credits earned abroad may not be accepted by Waseda University. It is therefore essential that you confirm all details with respect to credit accreditation with your school office.
