The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is now rampant, having a significant impact on society, including the Japanese government's declaration of a state of emergency. We are currently facing an emergency that we have never experienced before.
While everyone is in danger of infection, although it was a painful choice, with top priority to our students’ safety, Ryukoku University has decided to prohibit students to enter university campuses and discontinue face-to-face classes and provide on-line classes instead.
According to our students’ actual circumstances, we would like to provide all necessary support for students in need of assistance and to pursue educational activities based on the spirit of “leaving no one behind.”
As specific measures to support our students, by adopting urgent support measures worth a total of 1.4 billion yen, we have already decided to take measures, including establishment of new non-repayable grants and scholarship systems (special non-repayable grants for on-line classes: uniform 30,000 yen; financial assistance scholarship: up to 100,000 yen), extension of the due date for tuition, and increasing the amount for short-term loans. Furthermore, to respond to our students’ needs more effectively and quickly, we have set up the Student Support Plan Examination Working Group to have numerous deliberations on possible plans to support and aid our students from multiple perspectives. As a first step, we started providing diet assistance to students living alone, which is of great urgency. While continuing this activity, we will start various efforts, including psychological support and community formation support for students.
In line with this, since we have received many offers of cooperation in activities to help students from a wide range of people, to promote these activities and partly fund them, we decided to make a request for support of fundraising to help students during the novel coronavirus.
To help our students spend their university days with peace of mind, we would like to ask for your support.
Thank you for your understanding and support in advance.
