The 2026 entrance ceremony will be held.

On April 3rd, Otemae University held its "2026 Otemae University and Otemae College Joint Entrance Ceremony" at the Osaka Prefectural International Convention Center (Grand Cube Osaka) in Kita Ward, Osaka City.

A total of 1,905 new students enrolled at Otemae University, Otemae University Correspondence Education Division, and Otemae University Graduate School, along with 211 new students at Otemae College, totaling 2,116 students. Including accompanying family members and faculty members, approximately 2,300 people attended the lively ceremony. The event was also live-streamed on YouTube, allowing those who were unable to attend, as well as new students in the correspondence education division and their families living far away, to watch.

The Nakanoshima area near the venue was in full bloom with cherry blossoms, a beautiful spectacle that seemed to celebrate the new students' departure. The hopeful new semester and student life are finally beginning in earnest. Please look forward to the students' achievements.
