Application-materials reference

Common application materials laid out by degree × track: pick a combination and see the materials typical for that route, each explained as 'what it is / how to obtain / where to prepare / what to watch.' It's a reference — it does not judge whether you're complete.

Reference · no verdictThe guide is the authority

① Degree

② Track (admission category)

Standard graduate selection: the research plan and statement of purpose carry the most weight, with certificates, language proof, and application forms.

③ Pick a document to view

Shows only the selected document's sample / template and key points; switches instantly instead of rendering everything at once.

Summer / winter intake (rough guide)[要確認] Graduate schools commonly have a first intake (rough guide: apply spring–summer, exam in autumn) and a second (rough guide: apply in winter); some don't run a second. Which intake, which month, and the deadline vary by graduate school.

Fictional names and values; numbers, security features, and machine-readable data are omitted. Not fillable or submittable.

What it is
The basic school-specified form you fill in field by field. It is the shell of the whole application — most other documents slot into it.
How to obtain
Download or request the specified form from the school's guide / application page and fill it in field by field. Paper and online submission often coexist.
Where to prepare
The 'how to apply / documents to submit' section of the school's guide; an online application system counts as part of this too.
Watch out要確認
Form, required fields, and number of copies vary by school and track; follow the guide for date format and photo specs.

This page is a generic baseline to prevent omissions: the number of copies, format, language, timing, and deadline all follow the target school's current-year guide, layered with your own situation. It performs no AI completeness check, no upload, no ghost-writing, and generates no submittable sample. Passport, residence, and health items are not collected.
