The AAI provides access to full financial support to study at university abroad (equivalent to an undergraduate degree)\, including tuition\, room\, travel costs and other necessary fees. The programme has three stages.  \n1.

During the Study Camp\, students are assisted in their academic preparation\, university applications (to either Japan\, the U.K.\, the U.S.A.\, or Europe)\, career planning and leadership development. After completing the Study Camp\, the students will progress to a second camp called Preparation Camp.
