As of the day of the examination, individuals who have contracted and not yet recovered from an infectious
disease that requires them to stay home as detailed in the School Health and Safety Act (including those who have1

been designated by the public health center, etc., in the immediate run-up to the examination date as having been
in close contact with someone who is infected with COVID-19) must refrain from taking their examinations as
there is a risk of infecting others, including applicants and examination proctors. However, this will not apply ifeither a doctor at the school or other medical institution deems that there is no concern of the medical condition
infecting others. Please note that even if you refrain from taking examinations for the above reason, measures
