1? Looking for a favorite school
There are many high-quality high schools in Japan waiting for you to explore. You can learn more about the characteristics of each school through online search, attending educational exhibitions or consulting study abroad agents, so as to find the one that suits you best.
2? Proficient in Japanese
In Japanese high schools, Japanese is the main teaching language. So it is necessary to learn Japanese in advance. You can choose to take Japanese classes in China or go directly to a Japanese language school for further study. Generally speaking, the Japanese level of N3 or N2 can make you better integrated into school life.
3? Prepare application materials
According to the requirements of the target school, prepare application materials such as transcripts, letters of recommendation and personal statements in advance. Some schools may still need interviews, so we must be fully prepared.
4? Submit application
Give your application materials to the target school within the specified time. Some schools may need to apply through JASSO, and some schools can contact the school admissions office directly.
5? Waiting for good news
After submitting the application, just wait patiently for the school's reply. Once you receive the admission notice, the school will tell you what visa application materials you need to prepare next.
6? Visa processing
After getting the admission notice, you need to apply for a visa from the Japanese embassy or consulate. Prepare passport, photo, admission notice and guarantor information in Japan and other necessary materials. The visa approval time is about 4-6 weeks, but the specific time will vary according to individual circumstances.
7? Set out for Japan
After getting the visa, you can buy a plane ticket to Japan. When you arrive in Japan, remember to report to the school in time and attend the grand entrance ceremony.
8? Integrate into the new environment
After starting a new life in a Japanese high school, I will actively communicate with my classmates, participate in extracurricular activities, strive to improve my Japanese level and academic performance, and adapt to the new learning and living environment as soon as possible!
