Students completing their application on SpeedVisa who are unsure about what to write—or whether to write anything at all—in the "Remarks" section of their Educational Background. ### ❓ Question What should I include in the "Remarks" section of the Educational Background on my application? ### ✅ Answer The "Remarks" section is optional and meant for any extra details that clarify your academic history. The information you write here will be reflected on your resume and may be reviewed by admissions or visa officers. Only include information that adds helpful context. ### 📝 When to Include Information #### ✅ Leave It Blank If Nothing Needs Explaining If your educational timeline is straightforward (no breaks, transfers, or special circumstances), it’s fine to leave the section blank because it's not a required field. #### ✅ Use It to Clarify or Explain Include information **only if it helps explain** something unusual or important about your education, such as: - **Grade Skipping** *Example:* “I skipped the second grade from September 2010 to July 2011.” - **School Transfers** *Example:* “I transferred schools due to my father’s business relocation.” - **Temporary Leaves or Gaps** *Example:* “I took a leave of absence from October 2008 to April 2009 for medical treatment.” ### 📌 Recommendations - **Be Concise**: Keep your explanation short and clear. - **Be Relevant**: Only include information that affects how someone might view your academic record. - **Avoid Unnecessary Detail**: Don’t include minor personal notes or unrelated comments. ### How to Proceed If none of the above situations apply to you, feel free to leave the "Remarks" section empty. If you do have something to explain, write it in one to two short sentences using a polite and factual tone. ### Important Notes - What you write here will appear on your resume created by SpeedVisa. - Use English or Japanese depending on the application language setting so that your school's staff will read and understand. ### 🧭 Related Links Coming Soon     - [Usage Guide](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/usage-guide?hsLang=ja-jp) - [Residency Application](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#main-content) - [Overview](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#overview) - [Personal & Background Info](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#personal-background-info) - [Educational & Work History](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#educational-work-history) - [Necessary Information for Application](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#necessary-information-for-application) - [Payment Methods](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#payment-methods) - [Reasons for Study](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#reasons-for-study) - [Documents to Upload](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/residency-application?hsLang=ja-jp#documents-to-upload) - [Update Residence Information](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/update-residence-information?hsLang=ja-jp) - [Frequently Asked Questions](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#main-content) - [Log in](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#log-in) - [Financial Supporter](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#financial-supporter) - [Name & Personal Info](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#name-personal-info) - [Certificate Photo](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#certificate-photo) - [Education & Work History](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#education-work-history) - [Application Form Input Details](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#application-form-input-details) - [CoE Application History](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#coe-application-history) - [Documents & Certificates](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#documents-certificates) - [Upload Files](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#upload-files) - [Specital Situations & Requests](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#specital-situations-requests) - [Technical Issues](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#technical-issues) - [Procedures after Submitting CoE Application](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#procedures-after-submitting-coe-application) - [Life in Japan](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#life-in-japan) - [Messenger](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#messenger) - [Japanese Language Ability](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#japanese-language-ability) - [Deadline](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=ja-jp#deadline) - [Life Support](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/life-support?hsLang=ja-jp#main-content) - [Arrival Preparation](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/life-support?hsLang=ja-jp#arrival-preparation) - [Starting your Life in Japan](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/life-support?hsLang=ja-jp#starting-your-life-in-japan) - [Using SpeedVisa During Your Studies](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/using-speedvisa-during-your-studies?hsLang=ja-jp#main-content) - [Part-time Jobs & Internships](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/using-speedvisa-during-your-studies?hsLang=ja-jp#part-time-jobs-internships) - [Surveys](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/portal/using-speedvisa-during-your-studies?hsLang=ja-jp#surveys) [![SpeedVisa Logo](https://help.kusunoki.ltd/hs-fs/hubfs/logo.png?width=144&height=26&name=logo.png "SpeedVisa Logo")](https://s-visa.com/dashboard) © SpeedVisa
