Hello guys. So I need some help with the language school document procedure. So currently I am in the final year of my Bachelor’s degree and am expected to graduate by the end of May 2026. I want to apply for the October intake as the application process starts this month. I want to know whether I can apply now and submit my graduation certificate after completing my degree, or if I must wait until graduation before applying. At present, I can provide my high school certificate and academic transcripts for all semesters, except for my current ongoing one. Thank you in advance!
Hey everyone, long post incoming but I'd really appreciate any honest input from people who've been through this. I finished my CS degree in 2025 and my original plan was to move abroad after graduation. Australia was my first choice but the visa requirements have gotten really tough and it's just not realistic for me right now. I explored a few other countries too but kept hitting walls with requirements, costs, or competitiveness. So now Japan is on my radar and the more I research it the more I think it could genuinely work. But I want to make sure I'm not planning this the wrong way. Here's the path I've been thinking about: 1. Attend a Japanese language school to get my Japanese to a functional level 2. Apply to a Master's program in CS or a related field — ideally while targeting a scholarship like one you can get after enrollment 3. Use the degree + language skills to land a tech job and eventually settle here My questions: - Is this path actually viable or am I overcomplicating it? Would going straight for a Master's without language school first be better? - For scholarships you get after enrolling in a Japanese university — how competitive/accessible are they really for international students? - Is Japanese genuinely necessary for tech jobs or can you get by with just English? - Anything important I should know that isn't obvious from just Googling this? I know this is a long-term plan and I'm okay with that. I just don't want to be two years into language school and realize I made a strategic mistake early on. Any experience or advice would mean a lot. Thanks 🙏
I (29M) have recently gotten the opportunity to basically vacation in tokyo for 3 months, and I'm considering taking a short course at a language school in that time. I've read that a lot of full length courses require \~150 hours of study elsewhere, so I was curious to see if there were maybe short term options that take absolute beginners? I am interested in squeezing a good amount of study time into my stay, so a more intensive course would be fine. I know hiragana and some grammar basics, and I do intend to improve more before I show up, but my study has been fairly loose over the years and probably hard to officially quantify, so we can just pretend it doesnt exist lmao. Has anyone here done something similar? Which schools did you attend/how were they? And about how old were your fellow students (would prefer to not be overwhelmed by 18-20 somethings) I am mainly interested in the Tokyo area (I like the easy access/don't mind how crowded it can be, and this is still at least partially for vacationing XD), tho I could be swayed into Yokohama.
Hi everyone! I’ll be moving to Japan in a few months to study at ISI Japanese Language School. I’m planning to stay for about a year and a half, taking their EJU preparation course. I wanted to ask if anyone here has studied at ISI before. Does the program only focus on the Japanese language section of the EJU, or does it also cover subjects like math, physics, and chemistry? I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience with the school, especially regarding how well it prepares students for the full EJU.
