The only source is a dead link. The article was created when Wikipedia was growing rapidly and had different standards. Private universities must now show evidence of passing WP:NCORP. I searched, albeit in English, for references and failed to find suitable ones. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 19:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak delete~~ Keep Took a bit of digging but I managed to find an archived version of the ref [1], but it's to the university's own website. Otherwise I couldn't find anything else, though the reason I'm not strongly for deletion because all too often I've seen cases where no sources for something were found just because we're limited in our search results, although jawiki doesn't have anything but that source either [2]. ‍Relativity ⚡️ 20:01, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Changing to keep per Taku. ‍Relativity ⚡️ 01:25, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: English sources may be lacking but, according to my quick Google search, it seems there are a plenty of Japanese sources (many for prospective students). So, I think the notability is clear. —- Taku (talk) 08:04, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TakuyaMurata: Could you please link some of those sources? Thank you ‍Relativity ⚡️ 17:39, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Certainly.

Most of them are for students who are interested in applying for the university but I think they should be enough to establish the notability. —- Taku (talk) 08:33, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You can say there are no newspaper articles, for example, but a university isn’t a kind of a thing that is written about frequently in news media. But that doesn’t mean the university is not notable. It is often said a university is inherently notable except when it’s not a real university. The above should at least establish the university in question is real. —- Taku (talk) 08:38, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Taku. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:15, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Japanese sources. Nominating a Japanese article for deletion without first doing a WP:BEFORE search for Japanese language sources per WP:NOENG isn't great form :( DCsansei (talk) 07:33, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Taku. The given Japanese-language sources demonstrate notability. GhostOfNoMeme 12:09, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
