Japanese majors generally choose from linguistics, literature, sociology, management, history and education when applying for graduate students.
You can choose to apply for graduate students (auditees) or directly test monks. If you take the exam directly, you basically need to take the exam in Japan. What you need to see is mainly your major and examination ability. You don't need to go to Japan to apply for graduate students. The application will refer to the comprehensive school background, major, school performance, language performance and other aspects, so the better the comprehensive conditions, the more competitive.
Postgraduate applications should be prepared at least 1 year in advance. Besides the 7th Imperial University, Kanazawa University, Hiroshima University, Kumamoto University and Okayama University are all good local national universities.
