Most of the regular courses in University-wide Liberal Arts Subjects are open to exchange students except limited enrollment classes (limited student number on the syllabus is set at below 50 except "Japanese Studies in Foreign Language" courses and "Sports Subject") and a few others. There are some classes that special international students cannot register. In order to take regular academic courses offered in Japanese, it is normally required that the students pass J6 level or above in the Japanese Placement Test which students need to take after their arrival at Rikkyo. However, J4 and J5 students may be permitted to take regular courses if their academic advisor or supervising professor requests the course instructor to allow you to take those subjects and the instructor grants the permission. Please refer to the International Students Handbook for detailed information.

In order to take regular academic courses offered at individual colleges or graduate school, exchange students must meet the minimum required level of the Japanese Language proficiency. For detailed information, please refer to the below (in Japanese only).
