Studying in Japan
 

Now I´m 17 and in 2 years I want to go study. So my question is, how expensive university in Japan is and how much (only if yes) finacial support you got from the japanese government? And is it even possible to move to japan to study there? :confused:

Es kommt auf die Unis bzw. die Fakultaeten an. Hier gibt's staatliche/von der Präfektur errichtete Unis und private Unis, und die Private haben ihre eigenes System.

In germany there are privat and public universitys, too. But you get supported on both ^^

Wirklich, es kommt auf die Unis an. Und was meinst du mit "supported"? Stipendium?
Beispielweise hat meine Uni ein Stipendium, aber das muss man spaeter zurueckbezahlen.

ja stipendium meinte ich^^ aber auch BaföG

hmm..you have to talk to your local college near you or go to your consuler about it . for me where i live , my local college provides a program where you can study in the country you want to and learn their language ..which i thought that was cool ^.^

My current school doesn´t offer it, but is college the school before university or the same?^^

americans call universit college, they like to think their different by using different words for things.

anyway many schools charge around 500,000円 per year as a base and it can go up quite a bit from there. I have a feeling my friends (japanese) told me that the university i did exchange at they had to pay 1,000,000円 per semester.

although you are not going to have much luck studying in japan unless you are pretty fluent in japanese. you would need to take a language program first. quite a few universities offer a language program you can study which you can then, if passing entry exam, you can enter the universities.

you know just for shits and giggles i did a search for japanese university fees and guess what? there were results. so you should try searching and doing some research yourself.

you can get scholarships to help with your study, i had the JASSO scholarship. but there is no government funding, support system, as far as im aware

i'd like to go tstudy as well, cause i 'm now working...

I think i have to end school good before i can go to college. and if i´m there i will look if they offer a japanese language course or not^^
