Unless you are applying through another university as an exchange program (assuming they have that) I think applying directly to Tokyo U. and passing the entrance exam is going to be a very very difficult challenge. Less than 10% of the students are foreigners....

I've spent some time looking into the numbers and the requirements, so I'm somewhat aware that it is indeed difficult. I plan to start taking copies of previous entrance exams (available to buy online) to make sure that I can get in in three years. The one thing I'm not particularly sure on is if there are any differences in the requirements to get in as a graduate student vs. an undergraduate student?
