asian american wanting to go japanese college - 08-14-2007, 11:26 PM

this is going to be my last year in high school and i been thinking for some time now about going to a Japanese college but i don't know how to do it.

like would it be the same way of applying to any other college or is it different?

when my cousin came to the U.S from Laos for college they gave a semester to learn English so would they expect me to know Japanese or would they have a semester or two to teach me?

I know there are American college in Japan would that be easier get in to a plan Japanese college

Is there area in Japan were there is a lot of English speaker so it would be easier for me to live and get help?

Do you guy have any tips if i get there and do you guys recommend any college there?

You have to pass a special proficiency test to attend university in Japan as a foreign student. Of course univerisities with courses taught in English would deem that unnecessary, but those are rare. You can study Japanese in Japan until you pass the proficiency test, but even then university studies in a second language are always going to prove difficult because you simply don't have the same background as the other students.

Here is the test you need to take EJU-JASSO.
