IV. Use of ChatGPT and other Generative AI Tools
We are urging our students to take note of the precautions concerning the use of generative AI tools
including ChatGPT. Regarding the documents necessary for our entrance examination, please prepare
and submit them based on the following reminder. In addition, international students must abide by
their national and regional policies, laws, and regulations as required.
ReminderInformation entered into generative AIs could be used for AI learning or leaked to unintended

contain fabricated data, biased views, or ethically problematic expressions.
Regarding an application form and other necessary documents, please prepare them in accordancewith our Admission Policy and submit them at your own responsibility, ensuring that no wrongdoing
is being committed and that no discrepancies in academic skills are suspected after admission.

V. AccessFor details on how to get to the University, please visit the "Access" page on the University's website.
(https://www.ynu.ac.jp/english/about/access/access/)[Note 1] Please note that the sidewalks from Hazawa Yokohama Kokudai Station to the university arevery narrow in some places, so please be careful.
[Note 2] The number of buses and passengers are limited, and buses are greatly affected by traffic
