Kanazawa University is on the hill, and it is very quiet nearby. Livable. It's very lively near Kanazawa Station. Shopping used to be good. The cherry blossoms in Liu Ban Park in spring are very famous. The floor of Xianglinfang 109 is full of girls' clothes, which is great ~
Kanazawa is called Little Kyoto. There are many places of interest. In addition, Xianglinfang and Kanazawa Station are modern shopping streets. There are also many job opportunities there.
If you work, both the school canteen and the library provide job opportunities. Many exchange students work in schools. It doesn't matter if Japanese doesn't pass.
As for scholarships, as a one-year short-term exchange student, no matter which school you go to, you can't apply for scholarships.
The prosperity of these two cities is similar.
There are few official international students in Jinda, but there are many exchange students from various countries. There are many foreign students from Europe and America this year.
If you just want to save money, it's not Tokyo and Osaka, but other cities are similar. Cooking at home is better than eating out. However, Jinda offers very cheap dormitories, single rooms with kitchenettes and so on. So I think the hardware facilities and ranking of universities are the main purpose of your choice ~
Akita University is also good. But I still recommend Jin Da O(∩_∩)O~
