[Canceled] 2020 Entrance Ceremony

update: March 17, 2020

To all new students,

In order to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, and in response to the delayed arrivals of international students in Japan, we have decided to postpone the start of classes at TUFS until April 20 (Mon). Alongside this, we have decided to cancel the 2020 Entrance Ceremony scheduled for April 4 (Sat). We regret that we cannot meet and celebrate your admission with you all, but from a health and safety perspective, this is the best decision moving forward. We appreciate your understanding.

To all parents and guardians of new students,

Previously it was announced that the 2020 Entrance Ceremony would be held with students only, but at this time we have decided to cancel the ceremony all together. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.

To Parents and Guardians

In light of the recent spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, we ask that all parents, guardians and relatives refrain from attending the ceremony.
Unfortunately, due to limited capacity, accompanying guests will not be allowed into the venue.
For those wishing to watch the ceremony, both ceremonies will be live-streamed in Room 101 of the Research and Lecture Building.
After each ceremony, an information session on study abroad programs will be held for parents and guardians (expected to last 30 minutes).
