Gaining Current Status in Japan
After extended negotiations involving the U.S. and Japanese governments, in February 2005 TUJ became the first recognized foreign university campus (外国大学日本校, gaikoku daigaku nihonkō) in Japan. As a result, its credits and degrees are recognized as being equivalent to those of Japanese universities (while still being regular Temple University credits and degrees) and it can sponsor visas for international students. TUJ students are also given Japanese student identification cards and can obtain student discounts on train passes, mobile phone contracts, and other items.
The one remaining issue of contention between TUJ and the Japanese government is that TUJ is taxed as a for-profit company, even though the main campus is a non-profit, state university. This puts a significant financial burden on TUJ and its students.
