Frequently Asked Questions
Japan is a good place to study abroad for so many reasons. High quality study abroad programs, valuable cultural exchange, and meeting people from all over the world all make the experience totally worth it.
No, you do not need to know Japanese to study in Japan! There are many English-language study abroad programs hosted in Japan, but picking up new language skills is one of the many perks of studying in Japan. Try out a beginner class when you get there if you don’t speak any Japanese.
It’s not any more expensive to study abroad in Japan than elsewhere in the world. Depending on where you live though, the flight could get pricey. You can expect to spend up to $6,000 for a summer in Japan, and up to $11,000 for a semester program, not including flights, insurance, and visa expenses.
It’s easy enough to study abroad in Japan if your college has a study abroad program there. Otherwise, you’ll want to explore study abroad providers based on your field of study, and ask if they provide transfer credit (they almost always do).
If you’re studying abroad in Japan for less than 90 days, a tourist visa will suffice, depending on your program and host institution. If you plan to study in Japan for three months or longer, then you’ll need to apply for a student visa.
