12. About High School Enrollment Support Fund

National support system to reduce the tuition burden

What is the High School Enrollment Support Fund?

To create a society where all motivated high school students can study with peace of mind, the government supports household education expenses by providing students with the High School Enrollment Support Fund for tuition.

No Repayment Required

This is not a loan-type scholarship, so there is no need to repay it in the future.

For public high schools, if you qualify to receive the enrollment support fund, tuition payment is not required.
To use this system, procedures are required. Explanations will be provided by your high school, and notifications will be distributed.
Translated materials are available, so please consult with your high school if needed.
