Sophia University is a private Jesuit research university in Japan, with its main campus located near Yotsuya station, in an area of Tokyo's Chiyoda Ward. It is ranked as one of the top private universities in Japan, as well as the most prestigious. It takes its name from the Greek Sophia meaning wisdom. The Japanese name, Jōchi Daigaku, literally means University of Higher Wisdom. It has an exchange program with many universities throughout the world, including Georgetown, Yale, Sogang University, University of Hong Kong, and University of Cologne. Prior to 1957 the university only admitted male students to degree programs, but the proportion of male to female students is now more or less equal. Sophia’s alumni are referred to as Sophians; they include the 79th Prime Minister of Japan, Morihiro Hosokawa, a number of politicians represented in the National Diet of Japan, and professors at various institutions.
