The cost of studying in Japan is still relatively low, so it is also popular with many students.
How much are the tuition fees and living expenses for studying in Japan?
Let’s talk about the tuition and living costs of studying in Japan.
The tuition fee in Japan is relatively low compared with other countries.
A typical language school costs between 600,000 yen and 750,000 yen a year.
The annual cost of public universities and colleges ranges from 700,000 yen to 800,000 yen (excluding medicine).
Private universities are slightly more expensive, costing 800,000 to 1.2 million yen a year (excluding medicine).
Tuition fees for short-term colleges and specialized schools range from 800,000 yen to 120 yen a year.
Accommodation costs vary widely by region, with large cities such as Tokyo costing 20,000 to 40,000 yen a month.
More remote cities are much cheaper, maybe half or one-third of the price of Tokyo.
The cost of living in Japan is relatively high. Taking Tokyo as an example, the price level can reach about five times that of some cities in China.
The cost of a Chinese student living in Japan is at least 20,000 ~ 30,000 yen (equivalent to 1,200 ~ 1,700 yuan) a month.
Japan is one of the countries that offer a large number of scholarships to self-funded students.
In Japan, the Ministry of Culture, Science and Technology, local public organizations, and private organizations offer scholarships to international students who can apply at school.
In addition, the Japan Institute of International Education has a tuition assistance system for foreigners and self-funded students who study regular courses at various private universities in Japan. They can receive up to a partial tuition reduction based on their academic performance.
1. Applying for Tuition Waiver Japanese universities have a tuition waiver system, which is available twice a year. Materials should be submitted about two weeks before the semester starts.
Under normal circumstances, tuition reduction is applicable to: poor family financial situation but outstanding students, according to the requirements of the relevant materials can apply.
However, the admission fee of a public university of more than 280,000 yen is certainly not to be reduced, and the tuition fee of about 530,000 yen a year may be reduced by half. There are also full reduction, but really very few!
Private colleges offer less.
Some schools give about a quarter or a third of a year off to accommodate foreign students.
There are a lot of schools that pay the full amount.
The overall reduction is certainly not as big as that of public universities.
2. Scholarship Scholarship is the most reliable way to reduce financial pressure. Students speak by their grades.
There are two kinds of scholarships in Japan. One is that you must apply through the school, first apply for the scholarship inside the school, then participate in the selection, and finally the school recommends the final candidate.
This scholarship is generally pushed to get the probability is very large, the difficulty is that the pk is very fierce, very excellent ability to win the quota.
3. Early Graduation In Japanese universities, master of engineering and doctoral students can graduate 1 year in advance.
For self-funded students, graduating early is equivalent to losing a year’s cost.
But this approach is very difficult and rarely seen by either Japanese or foreigners.
Japan is a country where international students can work legally. Convenience stores, Chinese restaurants and duty-free shops are generally the main places for international students to work.
Working can maximize the living expenses in Japan. Generally speaking, most international students will have working experience.
But Xiaobian also reminds you here, work to do what you can, after all, our main job is still learning, do not because of addiction to work and abandoned their studies, delayed completion of the word is not worth the loss.
1, to read the language school because Japan’s universities are independent enrollment system, so want to go to Japan to read a good university good professional must choose to go to the language school in Japan to transition.
As a foreign student, you must submit your score for the International Student Test, which is held in June and November each year.
Language schools in Japan are funded by foundations and do not have any direct relationship with Japanese universities. They mainly enroll students in April and October, and some schools can enroll students in January and July. The application time is flexible, and the average annual tuition fee is about 40,000 ~ 50,000 yuan.
Through the study of Japanese in the language school and the study of admission counseling, to participate in the Japanese unified examination set for foreign students, after obtaining the results, can apply for the corresponding level of university.
2. There are nearly 800 universities in Japan that directly apply for undergraduate degrees. According to the nature of the schools and the rankings of their majors, many of them will directly cooperate with overseas institutions or middle schools for enrollment of some unpopular majors, and do not require the submission of the test scores.
One is a slightly better ranked private university (which also teaches in English) and the other is a lower-ranked third – and fourth-tier private university.
When parents choose, students must make clear the school’s admission system and graduation system. Some schools are easier to enter, but because the starting point is too low, students often ignore whether students’ personal ability and language ability can follow the corresponding course factors.
3, apply for university don’t Japanese private universities are foreign students don’t entrance transitional way that generally consists of a year, application conditions of difficulty level is associated with the ranking of each school, tuition at around 4-50000, no one’s status as a student, through the school don’t of course, can be directly involved in school entrance examination, if passed, can be directly at university in grade one.
4. Going to Japan for junior high school and senior high school students, it is a very common way to choose to go to Japan for senior high school and then go to college. The visa application rate is high, and language ability is not required.
The only thing that needs to be explained here is that if a student goes directly to the first grade, as a foreign student, he or she does not need to take the test for foreign students. He or she needs to take the test for foreign students and then take the test for universities, just like the process of entering a language school.
