Any Chance to Move/Go to Japan?

StriderX · (#1 (**permalink**))

I'm 24, going to be 25 come June 2008. I failed my 2006-2007 college course which has caused my financial aid to be suspended and I'm on academic suspension. I was (still am) going through heavy depression because I couldn't decide on what I wanted to do and I was also going through a lot of personal problems.

I have always loved Japanese culture since I was a kid, but never really thought about moving there, let alone going to Japan until out of nowhere the feeling of going or even moving to Japan lifted my spirits up and I was actually thought I'd have something to look forward to and I would/will work my back hard off for it. What I want and I know I need to do though is to get back into college (probably a different college), go for a bacheleor's degree like I did last time and....well, my mind seems to be made up in the business department. Something in media or whatever in computers. English teaching job I would probably be good at as well because English is my most favorite class and my specialty and I like working with people and like the idea of teaching other people about different cultures like how we are taught theirs, but business still my number 1 major to pick.

So the question is, do I have a chance, even if it does take me ten years? The truth, please!

You can go, for a bit 3 months i think
to live there you need a working visa (requires a bachlors degree)
or a get married to somone with a visa or resident status
but try collage agein after awhile :P

Can I even get back into college? If I can, is it a better idea to go to a different college?

If you want to work in Japan, then you need to have at least a bachelor's degree. Do you have a chance? Absolutely!

Canada, yes. America, no.

Unless you can't get back into the school you were going to, try to go to a different one. Usually though, universities will take you back. Even if it takes ten years to graduate, a college degree is always worth it in the end.

Collages on the other hand, well I don't know. You'd have to be pretty good to work in Japan doing collages, but I think you could make it.
