Transferring from Partner Universities

The UoA provides three types of Transfer Programs with partner universities. The application process is simpler than regular admission because of the programs being conducted with the partner universities. It also reduces the cost and time required to complete the programs compared to completing a university's general education. Students in these programs can have global experiences such as cross-cultural communication and participating in an internship program at a Japanese company.
