Studying in Japan without Failure

w

1.) Studying abroad period

The longer you study in Japan, the more influent your Japanese will be and the better you will learn Japanese thinking and custom. However, it also cost more tuition and money for living. So please adjust your period of studying to your purpose reasonably. Let’s divide study abroad term into 3 parts. Short term: from several months to one year. Middle term: two to three years. Long term: over three years.

If you choose short term, you could make use of the communication agreement among universities. If you are university student in your own country, it is recommendable for you to take part in this program. If you have graduated from university, you could study in Japanese graduate school for six months or one year as research student. Depending on your major, Japanese ability may not be necessary.
If you were not college students in your own country, it is better for you to focus the purpose of your short term study abroad planning on Japanese Learning. By learning Japanese in the special course of the university for one year, it is possible for you to undergo the life in Japan. Much shorter program will be learning Japanese in Japanese school for six months or participating Japanese lecture in summer to master basic Japanese. In addition, to the applicants who have high Japanese ability, six month or one year major study in graduate school as auditors is possible. About middle term studying in Japan. After one year study in Japanese school, there are ways to entering vocational school or college school. It is better to set your goal of one year study in Japanese School, like pass the second level of Japanese Language Proficiency Test. Search the Japanese school with such kind of curriculum. There are master courses using English. 
If you could understand lectures in English, it is no need for you to learn Japanese in order to require master degree. There are lots of ways for applicants who could study in Japan for long term. To those university undergraduates in their own country, after studying in Japanese school for one or two years, they could enter into master course or graduate schools as research student. To those with high English ability, they could enter into master course or doctoral course (where lecture could be taught in English) directly. On the other hand, to those who did not graduate from universities, after studying in Japanese schools for one or two years, they could enter into undergraduate course, spending four years there to get the bachelor degree. Otherwise, they also have the choice to study two years in vocational schools to acquire the specialist qualification.


2. ) Enough Time for Preparing

 
It is rash to decide the school to go or make financial plan just after listening to the advice from friends with study abroad experience or the information provided by study abroad mediator. In addition, it is also thoughtless to apply the school without comparison with others just because its deadline is near at hand.
It is difficult for you to change school halfway after you come to Japan. On some occasion, it is also impossible to transfer from one school to another. Even if you succeed in transferring school, you have to pay for admission fee again. Generally, vocational school or university in Japan starts from April, so you have to wait until next April if you want to transfer. Of course you have to go to and from the school you do not want to attend and pay for the tuition.
 In order to avoid these things, you ought to spend enough time on information collecting and study abroad preparing. Please think that these preparations are inevitable, even if one year behind schedule to come to Japan. Please make full use of this one year to begin Japanese learning in your home country. It will be helpful after you come to Japan.

3.) Do Not Rely on Part Time Job Earning

 

One characteristic of studying in Japan is that foreign students are permitted to take part time job. Students in Japanese school could work four hours a day while university students could work no more than 28 hours a week .( During the summer vocation, eight hours a day is permitted.)
However, living expense and tuition in Japan could not be covered by part job earning. No one will employ a person who cannot speak any Japanese and no one guarantee that you could find part time job anytime within the limit established by the law. Even you find part-time job, you have prepare for the days when you have to quit the job because of thesis-writing or job hunting.
  
Therefore, you should make a plan that you could afford for both the tuition fee and living expense without part-time earning. Then part-time job earning will be your spare money for the future.
Scholarship and tuition fee reduction are same. You should not come to Japan if you cannot afford all the expense without scholarship or tuition fee reduction. Please make a plan that scholarship and tuition fee will be your spare money to live in Japan.
