How do you get a student-visa? Are you eligible in college?

By the way, thank you for all the great info, Housetek!

if you decide to study abroad, and you get accepted into a japanese school, you will be issued a student visa.

which last i check can last for a year with max 20 hours a week of work allowed.

come to think of it, i never really found plus size stores in japan. very rare to see a overweight japanese person.
