進学資金シミュレーター is a free official app developed by the Japan Student Services Organization. It provides a simple way to research and understand the financial aspects of pursuing higher education. With this app, users can easily find out how much money they will need for their education, which scholarships they are eligible for, and the amount of grants and loans they can expect to receive.

There are two types of simulators available in 進学資金シミュレーター:

1. Student Living Expense Simulator: By inputting their income and expenses, users can gain a deeper understanding of the necessary costs involved in student life, based on average sample expenses.

2. Scholarship Selection Simulator: By inputting their parents' annual income, household composition, and other relevant information, users can diagnose the scholarships that they are eligible for. It is important to note that the results of this simulation serve as a rough estimate.

Whether you are a student or a parent, 進学資金シミュレーター can be a valuable tool for envisioning and planning your student life. It is also available on the Japan Student Services Organization's website.
