That isn`t what I meant. I meant in a foreign university, taking a Japanese class (usually Japanese minor). The university my cousin goes to in the US requires students to take and pass the JLPT 3 at some point if they are studying Japanese. I also seem to recall some short term exchange programs having the participants take the JLPT 3 at the end.

JLPT 1.5? Is this something new?

Japanese universities require JLPT 1 for enrollment if they don`t have an international program (which will sometimes accept 2 if you`re going to be studying Japanese there) or handle the foreign student Japanese exam thing. (Forget the name.) JLPT 3 would mean nothing inside Japan.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
