    After finishing med school, I decided to pursue a career as a doctor in Japan. The lengthy and complex process required to obtain the necessary qualifications presents a challenge I could not have faced on my own. The Akebono Foundation has provided me with invaluable assistance at every stage, even before coming to Japan: researching schools and academic programs, purchasing textbooks and offering much-needed advice. Upon arriving in Japan, their continued support ensures a comfortable environment, allowing me to focus on my studies. I wholeheartedly encourage anyone to apply.
