What are the requirements for art students to apply for studying in Japan?
1, language requirements
Department: Generally speaking, Japanese is required to reach N2 level, or EJU (Japanese study abroad experiment, designed for foreign students in Japanese universities) has a Japanese score of 200 or above.
University: above N2 in Japanese, N 1 is recommended.
In addition to Japanese requirements, you need to prepare English. For example, monks in the Art Research Department of the Graduate School of Tokyo University of the Arts have clear requirements for English scores, and they must provide any of the following English scores:
TOEFL ［Test of English as a Foreign Language］
Toe listening and listening. read
-or TOEIC oral $ writing, IELTS (academic module)
2. Portfolio
Regarding the art study abroad portfolio, I suggest you do it well before applying for domestic application. Because whether it is Tokyo University of the Arts or Tokyo Wu Mei, all schools attach great importance to middle school students' ability to understand art, and the way of investigation is mainly to look at students' works. The following are two points about applying for Japanese art schools:
1) Theme: Japan's collection inspection standards are consistent with those of Britain and the United States in procedures, but they have their own characteristics in project themes, so we must choose them skillfully and flexibly.
2) Style: Japan is a country with its own unique aesthetic style, and it is very strong. I suggest that everyone's works reflect their own understanding of Japanese aesthetics.
3. Research plan
Research plan is a necessary condition for art students to study in Japan and go to university, and it is also an important material submitted by professors during interviews and wishes. Generally, it takes 800- 1000 words. The main content is your research plan of becoming a monk in Japan for two years, which can be divided into: research motivation, research background, research methods, research significance and so on. Your research direction should be consistent with the main research direction of the professor you want to apply for.
4. Entrance examination
Generally, Japanese art universities have their own separate exams. All subjects passed the examinations of Essay, Interview and Art Test. When interviewing, they are generally required to bring some of their own works. Some schools have to submit their own works in written application materials. Japanese ability plays a very important role in the interview, and the professor will judge whether the students can successfully complete the tasks assigned by the teacher and communicate with their classmates according to their listening and speaking ability.
