Your best bet would be to get a working holiday visa. You won't be able to extend it but you'll be able to live and work in Japan for a year.
Hello,

thanks for the replies and helping me.
Thank you very much indeed spicytuna but I could never accept that .
I will use a student visa( if I successfully get one ).
I have "talked" with the principal and the result is the following: I will be able to do the entrance exam + an interview in both english and japanese
So it all depends on the visa and the exam now!
Again thank you for your concern, everyone!

Edit: The only thing I do not understand is the following -> In order to get a student visa I need a school to "sponsorship" my visa. Now for my question: Can they sponsorship me before I take the exam? Or do I basically have to fly there without a visa (3 months stay), take the exam, pass, fly back, achieve my visa and fly to Japan again TT?
