[2] Selection

JSPS asks the prospective host institutions whether they will officially accept the nominees; and upon confirmation, selects the successful applicants, and then notifies the nominating authorities of the results. Concurrently, JSPS sends a formal letter of invitation to each successful applicant through the designated nominating authorities.
