[Tokyo,Japan] – Exchange Student Program at Meiji University

Warm Greetings from Meiji University, Japan!

 

Meiji University was founded in January 1881 as the Meiji Law School by a group of young lawyers barely in their 30’s. It was an era characterized by Japan’s urgent need to develop as a modern independent nation. The three founded the Meiji Law School in their fervent hope to “foster bright capable youths who would lead modern civil society in Japan”.
