This study aimed to compare motivation toward learning English of students majoring in international studies (IS) with that of students majoring in nursing (NU) at Doshisha Women’s College of Liberal Arts. A total of 165 (87 IS students, 78 NU students) first-year students participated in the study. A questionnaire including an open response was employed in the study. Factor analyses produced the following five factors: “Interest in the English language and culture,” “Ought-to L2 self and instrumentality (prevention),” “Passive attitude toward English class,” “Ideal L2 self and self-efficacy,” and “Anxiety about speaking English.” Except for the “Anxiety of speaking English” and “Passive attitude toward English class” factors, IS students had significantly higher motivation than NU students. Next, qualitative analyses of the open question revealed that both IS and NU students wanted to have classes that would improves their communication skills despite the fact that approximarely half of students did not write any comments. Finally, integral analyses showed that both students’ groups’ motivation rose after taking English class at the university. However, differences in motivation were found between IS and NU students in that the former studied English for various reasons, whereas NU students did so mainly because of preparation for entrance examinations.
