Knowledge of the Japanese language is essential for pursuing studies in Japan. Prospective students should possess proficiency at least equivalent to Level 5 of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT N5), enabling them to understand basic Japanese and apply smoothly to Japanese language schools in Japan. They must have passed one of the proficiency tests recognized by the Immigration Bureau of Japan, which are available in Nepal and conducted by various Japanese organizations. Alternatively, applicants should have studied for at least 150 hours.
JLPT conducted by the Japan Foundation and Japan Educational Exchanges and Services, is the most standardized test to evaluate Japanese language proficiency for non-native speakers.
The NAT-Test, conducted by Senmon Kyouiku Publishing Company, is indeed a recognized test for evaluating non-native speakers' Japanese language proficiency. It is designed based on the format of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) and serves as an alternative assessment for those seeking to demonstrate their proficiency in Japanese.
The TOPJ test, administered by The Asian Foundation for International Scholarship Interchange (AF) and officially recognized in Japan, comprises three levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. It assesses not only learners’ language proficiency but also their understanding of Japanese customs and culture.

IELTS is developed and managed by reputable international organizations: the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia, and Cambridge Assessment English. This collaboration ensures rigorous standards in test development and administration. Its global recognition, accessibility, and reliability have collectively made it the preferred choice for individuals pursuing further studies and employment opportunities in English-speaking countries. IELTS offers two types of tests: Academic and General Training. Both versions assess speaking and listening skills in the same format. However, the reading and writing modules differ between the Academic and General Training tests.
The minimum requirement for applying as a student typically requires a certain score in each band of the IELTS test. This requirement often varies depending on the institution and the level of study. A common benchmark is to achieve a score of at least 6.0 or 6.5 in each of the four bands (Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking) of the IELTS test.
The PTE, administered by Pearson PLC Group, is a computer-based English test lasting two hours with results available within 48 hours. It is accepted by over 3,500 universities and colleges worldwide.
