And due to my grades, I can not get into a university, that's out of the question
If it's not a full 4 yr degree (BA), it doesn't count. And if your grades at a junior college are so terrible that no university would even accept you, that wouldn't be looked on well in Japan either, where emphasis on grades and tests is far higher than in the US.
