Deadlines for this scholarship
An award closing is only the first of the dates that matter. After it there is the deposit that keeps your place, the unconditional offer the funder wants to see before it pays, and a last day to arrive and register. Where the funder publishes none of these, the row says so — a blank is what the official page actually says, not something we have left out.
No closing date published. This funder sets its closing date per country, or opens the call only when the cycle begins. Send us your documents and we will apply the moment your country’s window opens.
Who can apply
Pakistan, India and Bangladesh nationals eligible (ADB developing member countries); Gulf states are not ADB members, so UAE/Qatar/Saudi/Oman nationals are not eligible.
What the award is
ADB's Japan-funded scholarships for full-time master's degrees at designated ADB-JSP partner institutions in the Asia-Pacific. The official ADB pages confirm the program is active and that it covers full tuition fees, a monthly subsistence allowance including housing, books and instructional materials, medical insurance and travel. You apply directly to the chosen partner institution, so the deadline is that university's admission deadline for the year you wish to enrol.

ADB's own pages state applications are submitted to the participating Japanese university, not to ADB, and publish no scheme-wide deadline - each university sets its own admission deadline — https://www.adb.org/what-we-do/funds/japan-scholarship-program-jsp and https://www.adb.org/work-with-us/careers/japan-scholarship-program (checked 30 October 2026). All date columns blank because the funder publishes no fixed dates; candidates must read the deadline of their chosen partner university.
Deadlines move. Always confirm on the funder's own page before you book anything — the link above is where we read it.
