Second, the conditions for studying in Japan
There are three main application conditions for studying in Japan: academic qualifications, language ability and funds.
Studying in Japan, there are certain restrictions on academic qualifications. Language schools and universities require that they have received more than 65,438+02 years of compulsory education in China, and they should be at least 65,438+08 years old at the time of admission. Graduate school requires a bachelor's degree (16) or equivalent, and at least 22 years old when entering school.
Language ability is an indispensable skill abroad. Universities need a certain degree of language education in teaching. Even language schools have minimum language proficiency requirements. To go to a language school for further study, the minimum requirement for language ability is N4 or above in Japanese proficiency test (J-test E-F or above); To be admitted to colleges and universities, the language ability of science should be above N2, and the liberal arts should be above N 1.
The last item is funds, including your tuition and living expenses. Some people may ask, is it okay if it is not Japan? But if you don't find a job or the time is low, the economy will be tight. So please prepare the corresponding study abroad funds at home. The annual cost is about 654.38 million RMB (including all expenses).
Third, I am going to study in Japan.
1, you must choose the way to study abroad that suits you. According to your education and family, find the school that suits you best.
2. Be prepared for hardship. Japan is not the paradise we imagined. Studying in Japan is also a very hard thing. We have to face the language barrier, study hard again and re-establish our social circle. Understand the Japanese mind. Therefore, it is never easy to study in Japan. Be sure to tell yourself well before studying abroad and make enough preparations, so that when you arrive in Japan, you will feel everything is natural.
3, prepare for the worst, there may be several ways to study abroad for you to choose, there is always one that is the best and the other that is the worst. Prepare for the worst and you won't regret it later.
4. Preparation of funds before studying abroad
Although Japanese study abroad is a country with relatively high neutral price and relatively low cost in many countries, compared with China, both tuition fees and prices are higher than those in China. So the preparation of funds is very important. Only if you have enough funds to study abroad, can you finish your studies well, or you will be doomed to delay the exam every day for tuition.
