Examination Venues in Japan

Examination Venues in Japan

Q. My assigned examination venue is located far away from my residence. May I request to change it?

A. No changes can be made in your examination venue.
Examination venues are determined on the basis of consideration for the test subjects and examination language selection patterns of examinees, venue capacity and other factors. There will be cases, therefore, examinees are assigned to venues located some distance from there they live.

Q. How do I go to my assigned examination venue?

A. Use the following website to confirm the optimum access to all EJU examination venues. Please also be aware that changes may be made in some examination venues. This website provides the latest updates on those venues, special bus service and other related information. Please check it regularly.

Q. Is it possible to go to the examination venues by car or bicycle?

A. No. Examinees are not allowed to come to the examination venues by car or bicycle. Please use public transportation. It is not possible to use car or bicycle parking lots at the examination venues or at stores or other businesses located near the venues. Please follow this rule. If complaints are received about use of such parking lots, there is a possibility that the venue could no longer be utilized in the future. This would be a major inconvenience for other examinees.

Q. May examinees be accompanied by other individuals when coming to the examination venue?

A. No persons other than examinees are allowed to enter the examination venue. No waiting rooms are available for accompanying attendants or children. Examinees are also requested to not enter empty classrooms or other rooms at their venue without authorization unless requests have been approved in advance due to disabilities or other valid reasons.

Q. Are there clocks in the examination rooms?

A. No. Because clocks are not provided in our examination rooms, please bring a wristwatch for which the alarm will not ring. Be careful about this, because if such a watch alarm rings it will be considered prohibited behavior.

Q. I left something behind at the examination venue. What can I do?

A. Please direct inquiries about lost items to the EJU Uketsuke-Center (0570-55-0585).
