Changes to the certificate application system
The certificate application system was updated on September 16, 2026. As a result, it is no longer possible to obtain certificates directly from the on-campus automated issuing machines using your student ID card, as was previously the case.
All applicants, including those using the on-campus automated certificate issuing machines, are required to apply in advance through the certificate application system.
Please note that current graduate students in the Department of Marine Science or the Onboard Training Program should use the application page for graduate students.
