Administrative Procedures
Risk Management Policies for UEC International Students
International Student Section of Student Services Office offers assistance for international students in matters ranging from admission procedures to the various other procedures that need to be completed. To receive this assistance, international students must provide up-to-date personal details.
In recent years, there has been an increasing number of cases in which international students face such problems as injuries, illnesses, fires, leaky apartments, or loss of personal belongings. Many international students do not live with their families or relatives in Japan; even if they did, most of their family members or relatives likely do not speak Japanese well enough to deal with
these matters effectively. As a supportive response to these situations, faculty and staff members at UEC are able to offer assistance if the student involved has made the following preparations:
- The student must provide up-to-date personal information to UEC in order to receive assistance.
- The student must submit a signed agreement indicating that university authorities are permitted information when necessary.
- The student must provide certification that he or she will be able to make at least the minimal necessary payment for medical treatment or other services based on enrollment in a comprehensive individual insurance program designated by the university or other such insurance program.
CIPE and International Student Section require the submission of the following documents from international students with the goal of instructing, helping, and offering risk management for these students.
