You have been researching this for months and you still cannot answer the basic questions.
Everything you find contradicts something else you found.
Japan has world-class
engineering universities.
Japan has a difficult work culture.
You need fluent
Japanese to get hired.
You can work in English at a
multinational in Tokyo.
Scholarships are
everywhere.
Scholarships are almost impossible to win.
Every one of those statements is being told to you confidently, by someone, right now.
All of them are about Japan in general. What you need
is an answer about your branch, your CGPA and your
graduation date.
Meanwhile the calendar moves without you.
Several application rounds for October 2027 entry open and close before this year ends. Some run for a fortnight. They close for good, and the next one costs you a full year.
For scale: as of 1 May 2025, 1,661 Indian students were enrolled in Japanese higher education. From Nepal, a country of around 30 million, the figure was 55,607.

What it looks like once this
is settled
01
02
You know which application rounds apply to your branch, when each opens, and how long each one stays open.
03
You know what Japanese universities publish as their entry criteria, and where your CGPA sits against it.
04
You know what your parents will ask, and you can answer it with a source and a date rather than a forum post.
The Japan desk at Top Uni Admit
We have placed Indian students into universities in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and France for fifteen years, around 175 students a year. Japan is where we are focusing next.
The Japan desk handles one thing: English-taught Master’s programmes in Japan for Indian engineering graduates. University shortlisting, eligibility assessment against published criteria, application preparation, document readiness, visa filing and pre-departure.
It is built for final-year B.Tech students in Computer Science, Mechanical, Electrical and Electronics, Materials and Civil, and for recent graduates in the same branches.
Fifteen years. Six countries. Around 175 students placed every year.Guidance from someone who works in Japan
Why the usual advice fails
A consultant covering six or seven countries handles Japan through a counsellor who has never worked there. The information is relayed second- hand, nothing gets checked against a primary source, and nothing carries a date. Free research online has the same defect with more volume and more confidence.
What is different here
Sachin Gupta is co-founder of WebMob Software Solutions, a 150-engineer software company that has built and delivered products for Japanese health tech, pharma tech, biotech, fintech, AI and blockchain businesses for three years. The company is approved under JETRO’s “Invest in Japan” initiative.
He has travelled to Japan nine times since 2023, on trips ranging from five days to three weeks. In March 2026 he went through Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto specifically to visit universities and sit down with Indian students already studying there.
He runs the Japan desk himself and takes every consultation personally.
Why the usual advice fails
Answers at programme level rather than country level. Every figure with the primary source it came from and the date it was last checked. Application windows tracked as universities publish them.

If you are speaking to more than one consultant, ask all of them a question. Ask who runs their Japan desk, and whether that person has ever worked in Japan. Ask us the same thing.
What that changes for you
We prepare you for a market we work in.
01
Know exactly where you stand before you apply
We review your branch, graduation year, CGPA, budget and target intake before building your shortlist, so you know which universities actually fit your profile.
You start with a shortlist based on published criteria, not assumptions.
02
The right universities, filtered for your profile
Programmes are checked against each university's published requirements. Options that fall outside your profile are removed, with the reason clearly explained.
You spend time only on applications that make sense for you.
03
The application calendar, tracked as it publishes
A large number of Japanese universities publish their October 2027 guidelines across the first half of 2027. A university's dates become knowable once it publishes them. We track these as they appear and send you the ones that fit your branch.
You find out a window has opened while it is still open.
04
Applications handled end to end
Documents, submissions, university deadlines and visa filing are managed through one process, with each application tracked against the window published by the university.
You know what is due, what has been submitted and what comes next.
