If you would continue using your former name at the university, the notification is not required and your certificates will be issued under your former name.
When submitting this notification, be sure to attach an official copy of the family register or other document of proof which contains both your former name and new name. (We will return the official document after verification.)
If you are a Japanese Student Service Organization (JASSO) scholarship recipient, you need to go through a separate procedure and to submit a request form (Idoh-negai/todoke (異動願(届))as a notification of your withdrawal and a letter of commitment for scholarship payment as set by the organization as well.

For those receiving scholarships from corporate funds or associations other than JASSO, please first contact the office of each fund to take procedures required by the organization.
