As a preparation for the upcoming GFC application session for the 2023-2025 program, we will be organising Q&A sessions during the month of November for those who are considering applying.

Please send an email to our GFC address: globalfashion@bunka-wu.ac.jp, introducing yourself (please include your cv and information about your educational background (such as your degrees and transcripts)), and write down some possible questions that you have. We will arrange a date for an online Q&A session where we will answer your questions.

Based on the information you receive at these sessions, we will ask you to prepare a research proposal and your portfolio needed for the application interviews conducted in December.

Welcome to Tokyo, our new first years!

Last month, our first year students were finally able to enter Japan thanks to the eased border restrictions. Furthermore, as we have switched back to partial face-to-face classes, our students have also been able to discover our campus and our GFC studio, while taking part in these classes.
Last week, we had a visit from the lovely Sheila Cliffe, who teaches our students yukata wearing yearly, and the results can be seen in the picture below.
We are wishing our new first year students a fruitful time in Tokyo, and are looking forward to their future works!
