Original review summary

Japan’s government does provide tuition waivers and monthly stipends to some foreign students, but the review says the scheme does not cover all foreign students: government-funded students were about 3.2% of the total in 2023. The review therefore finds the claim misleading because it suggests the support applies broadly.[S1]
