When you need certificates issued by NWU once you go back to your country, you may be asked to have them certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan or Embassy of your country in Japan.
Make sure to confirm in advance whether the documents need to be certified, or inquire about the certification method to the Consul General in your country.
In case that you need certificate of graduation and certificate of completion, you should make a request for issuance to Educational Affair Division before your returning home.
