Thank you for your cent Sir blackbriar.
The side of side hustle is partly settled, please are you aware of the POF account required. Must the money be in my account as a M.sc student, or use my sponsors. Your efforts is much appreciated 🙏🏿

Gerrard59:
I initially thought the aspect of side hustle was a business, say container business. But if it's part time jobs, there are a thousand and one of such jobs. If you want higher wages, do warehouse jobs. But it's physically tasking. But you will out-earn almost every African scholarship student per month. I know someone who did it to pay part of his tuition fees alongside tuition waivers.

Sir Gerrard Thank you for your support and kind words. You guys swift reply to my drawing board questions has increased my motivation to move the more. I really appreciate it.

Briefly Sir, blackbriar and Gerrard I noticed something different on the style of applications for the Japanese university, seems to be different, say for instance I was researching the universities, I don't see where one can apply either on-site or via portal, could be more light and helpful for me if you guru's highlight on this please 🥺

Gerrard59:
You contact the professor who covers an area of research you are interested in. If una agree, he tells you to formally apply. Without his approval, it's difficult as you won't have a research lab to work/study in. Master degrees in Japan, especially in science and technology, are largely research based than taught based. It's similar to the US and unlike the UK.

Unlimitedlucky:
Sir I understand that. My field is financial management technology, and I don't think there's much research else on data analysis unlike pure science. I hope am not overstepping boundaries but I just want to make sure Sir blackbriar and Gerrard...

Gerrard59:
You have to do your research. Such will exist, but whether the professor speaks or can speak English is another one. Those professors exist in the Imperial Universities, Japan's equivalent of the Ivy League. However, your grade becomes an issue unless you have a much stronger application aside grades to present. Since you're a privately financed student, your chances are higher. Just don't expect scholarships sha from the university. You will have to slug out your scholarships from private organisations not affiliated with the university. This concerns most Imperial Universities.

blackbriar:
Oga.

Instead apply to Japanese langigae school to get student visa and srudy japanese lanaguage.
You will also get part-time working rights as a student.
Freedom to rent apartment.

There way better legal ways than asylum.
Asylum guys cant rent apartment and really get jobs even part time.

And you wil spend same amount of money.

judecares1:
Do you know the cost of japanese language course?
If you already in Japan,there are some free language courses organised by the prefectures and most blacks which have come across with since i came to Japan are PhD students with scholarship

Please think twice 🙏

blackbriar:
Yes I know the cost.

He wants to come on asylum .

Which is better asylum or japalense languse school?

judecares1:
For asylum it's capital NO NO and if he eventually gets into Japan with language school how can he sustain himself pending when he can get the part time job? Do you think the language course will give you enough time to earn money which will be enough for the payment of your school fees and bills?

blackbriar:
What do you advice?

judecares1:
Coming via scholarship or direct employment. Education in Japan is expensive 🫰 that's how i see it compared to European countries.

Gerrard59:
A registered Japanese Language school is actually one of the major routes to legally enter Japan. Those free language studies aren't realistic or feasible in learning Japanese and don't offer a resident permit. Japanese language schools offer COE to successfully admitted students and have a strong network for part time jobs. Those at the free language centres by prefectures already have resident permits (I enrolled in one as a student). Language schools don't accept foreigners with a resident permit unless permanent residency, spousal visa or long term residents.

The issue with language schools in admitting foreigners especially non-East Asians would be age. Cameroonians have it better as there's a Japanese language school there and some of them move here after passing N3. But for a tyro, e go hard. So if one is below say 27 years, then the chances of being admitted by a language school is high. Above 30 and without at least N3, e go hard.

judecares1:
Good evening. If you read my two or three comments above,I mentioned that if he is already in Japan it could have been nice to register for the free language courses organised by prefectures and i never mentioned that they offer visa sponsorship.
Yes i agree with you with the language school as the easiest way to come into Japan but the question which I asked him,can he sustain himself in Japan pending when he gets the part time job and will the part time job be enough to pay for his school fees, accommodation, transportation and other personal expenses?

Education in Japan is expensive compared to Europe?

Mate, do you know how much school fees are in National Universities per annum ; 600,000 yen/6,000 ~ 7,000 dollars.
Why do you think Vietnamese, Indonesians, thais, nepalese, indians, sri lankans and the entire South East Asia troupe to Japan ?
Recently Even Latinos and Mexicans, Brazilians have also discovered Japan
You think every foreigner studying in Japan is on scholarship?

uchman:
Can you guild my wife to be admitted into the said language school?
The funds are not the problem, we have tried this severally but the requirements no be here
