will take to get there.

• Please take note of the effects of bad weather on transportation facilities and take care not to arrive late.

◯ Items that can be placed on the desk 

• Exam admission slip

• Writing implements (black lead pencils and erasers)

• Pencil sharpener

◯ Directions to the exam venue

• Please pay attention to posted notices that show the way to the exam venue on exam day so that you do not

go to the wrong place.

• You may only check the exam building before the exam; you may not enter the rooms where exams will be

held.

◯ Entering and leaving the rooms where exams are held

• Examinees should enter the designated exam room and take their seats 15 minutes before the exam starts.• Examinees who are carrying cell phones, portable audio players, or other devices should make certain to

switch off alarm settings, turn off the power, and place the items in their bag (and not on their person). If

a cell phone starts buzzing inside a bag, a proctor will take the bag out of the room without asking for the

owner’s permission (treating it as cheating).

• Examinees who arrive late on exam day due to circumstances beyond their control will be permitted to take

the exam if they arrive up to 30 minutes after the exam has begun.

  However, the exam’s duration will not be extended. Please follow the instructions of TMDU ofcials if you

arrive late.

• Please have your admission slip with you when you enter the room.

• Please check around the desk to ensure that you do not leave anything behind when you leave the room.

◯ Precautions during exams

• Follow all instructions from proctors while in the exam room.

• All access to areas other than the exam room and designated locations is prohibited.

• Display your admission slip on the top of your desk while you are in the exam room.

• Once the exam starts, you will not be permitted to leave the room until the exam has been completed. Please

raise your hand and follow the proctor’s instructions if you start to feel ill during the exam, or in any other

situation that absolutely cannot be helped. You will not be offered any form of additional assistance, such as

extending the exam duration, even if you have been given permission to leave the room. Further, after you

leave the room, if more than 30 minutes elapse after the start of the next subject’s exam, you will not be al-

lowed to take that exam.

• Write your name and examinee number correctly on the answer sheet. Be aware that you cannot be graded if

you provide incorrect information.

• Use black pencils for your answers and not fountain or ballpoint pens or colored pencils.◯ Other points to note

• Please be aware that anyone who fails to take one of either the written or oral exams will fail the entrance

exam.

• Parents and others who accompany examinees on the day of the exam will not be able to enter the TMDU

campus.

  Please be aware that there may be people offering to check the announcement of successful applicants for

you and passing out leaets in the vicinity, but these persons have no afliation whatsoever with TMDU.

• Ask a TMDU representative (employee wearing an armband displaying the university’s name) if you are un-

clear about anything else.
