Each year, a list of the designated graduate schools in Japan will be supplied prior to the application process. This list is for the entire YES Award programs, including those conducted in Vietnam India and Lao.

The YES Award Plus recipients may choose a major (discipline) other than the one they pursues at their home university, but are responsible to obtain admission from the graduate school they apply for.

At the request of any YES Award Plus recipient, the HOF and other affiliate organizations will provide detailed information about designated graduate schools or write a letter of recommendation for him/her. However, the HOF will not provide further support after his/her enrollment.

During their stay in Japan, the YES Award Plus recipients may be invited to join the HOF’s social events (cultural exchanges) and the Honda Prize awarding ceremonies.
