To 3rd and 4th year Doctoral students,

Please check your credit acquisition status at SOSEKI and your academic record through the certificate issuing system. If you do not have enough credits or unacquired credits, please plan your attendance to earn enough credits.
Students who plan to complete the doctoral course or withdraw by earning credits in March 2025 should complete all the courses currently being taken by December 31.
If the courses are not completed by then, the student will not be considered for completion.
