blackbriar:Good morning bro, please i want to know the total amount one should budget for a master's program in Japan for the two years duration and also if the schools over there offer post graduate diploma program for those who want to venture into another area of study different from his/her bsc course of study. |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by blackbriar: 1:54am On Jul 07, 2020 |
aguizm: This question has been answered repeatedly on this thread..try to read it. Japanese national Universities are relatively affordable (550,00yen per annum) times 3.02 to Naira. as a student , you are eliglble to do part time work, |

So going there With tourist is not advisable, visa free passport for 90days |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by Nobody: 7:57pm On Jul 07, 2020 |
ENGRPETER101: Well, maybe you possess the passport of a country that is offered visa free travel for 90 days to Japan or citizen of a country that has a visa waiver with Japan. If so, then it's possible. |

Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by aguizm(m): 1:46am On Jul 10, 2020 |
blackbriar please i need your input to this. Osaka University replied my mail stating that i need a Japanese language proficiency of N1 to be eligible for a master's program in Economics with them. Please bro, can you recommend any other national University where such is not a requirement. I also need a school which is not situated in the big cities of Japan where cost of living is very okay. 1 Like |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by blackbriar: 1:13pm On Jul 10, 2020 |
aguizm: Cost of living is the same everywhere in Japan, Living in a big city gives you the opportunity to get part time job quickly. Is Osaka university a national university ? International University of Japan is a good University but in a proper wilderness, there is no chance of part time job there. So look for national universities in cities. Kyoto University. Hokkadio University. Niigata University. Yokohama National Univeristy Doshisha University Ritsumeikan University 2 Likes |

MERCHANDISER: Hokkaido University, their agriculture program is perhaps by far the best in the country. But some provincial national universities have decent animal science/husbandry departments (for example Shizuoka University). aguizm: Aside from access to part time jobs (if you can't get scholarships), big cities also offer some suburbs with surprisingly low housing cost, which is often just one or two relatively short train ride away from the campus. Let's say, if you study in Waseda University in Tokyo (I think its economic and policy departments don't require Japanese language proficiency, got some friends studied there), you can live in southern part of Saitama bordering Tokyo or Kita-Senju. The downside is that some landlords don't welcome foreigners (or non-Japanese speaking) tenants, although it's not always the case. You may also check out share houses for students or university dorm, which can also really cheap (by Kanto area standard) albeit with expense of privacy for the former. 1 Like |

blackbriar: Thanks alot bro for your help. I will look into all these schools you recommended. Please no vex for this new question, from a research i did online, i noticed that monthly expenses (rent,feeding,text books,internet e.t.c) of an international student ranges between ¥90,000-130,000. Can one offset all these bills with the part time jobs? |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by aguizm(m): 2:11pm On Jul 10, 2020 |
majisuka: Thanks alot, i appreciate. |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by blackbriar: 2:47pm On Jul 10, 2020 |
aguizm: Yes you can The most expensive of those bills is house rent which ranges from 40-60,000¥ monthly. Excluding water , electricity and gas bills but if you get school dormitory all the expenses are as low as 15-30,000¥ monthly. So it’s necessary you get a dormitory |

peacefull: Earning 300k by working part-time job??!! WTF Not even highest-paid entry-level professional jobs in best Japanese companies earn that much In all seriousness, the government of Japan should invest more on handing out more merit-based scholarships in legit universities to attract more brilliant talents. They also need to reform their archaic graduate-level higher education system to akin to that of Western counterparts, i.e. paying PhD candidates and giving more funding to labs with more international students and professors with global research experiences in other technologically-advanced countries. Recently, instead of enacting sensible reforms they are shooting themselves at their feet, the worst of them is abolishing and stopping almost all government-sponsored scholarships for international students. If you pay peanuts you get monkeys, aside from turning away talents, the graduate students are becoming less and less productive because they have to split their attention to part-time jobs. Instead of attracting top talents, vast majority of the international students here are language school students who spend most of their times in unproductive jobs. |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by Nobody: 9:22pm On Jul 21, 2020 |
majisuka: You're right... I've checked salaries in Japanese companies and boy! They are low say compared to Germany or the UK - countries with similar size of economies. Don't you think these reductions have to do with the debt level of the country? Although, the US has a higher debt level but the way her universities are structured differs significantly from other countries even in the EU. Another reason could be developed Asian countries' antipathy towards foreign talents in higher education. Singapore is the exception here because of the benefits she accords to foreign scholars. This book explains why American higher institutions are successful at attracting foreign talents and amass huge endowments: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0674244230/?coliid=I1NNI8VHRIRQIG&colid=17FSMSCV4I4LB&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it 1 Like |

NaotoKan: I think it's due to combinations of a lot of factors. Housing cost in Japan (even in and around Tokyo) is cheaper than almost all other major cities in developed world. Perhaps it's the only megacity that isn't experiencing housing crisis, there are more apartment rooms and houses than what it's needed. Moreover, most fresh graduates live with their parents and don't spend that much of money, not to mention transportation and other costs. Unlike in the West especially the US, the fresh graduates aren't burdened by huge student loan (I know a few Japanese who received student loan when they studied in university but it is easy to pay it back in a few years). Despite the low wage, average employees receive relatively large bonuses and various benefits too. Last but not least, corporate taxes in Japan are also higher than most of the world, keeping the companies to spend fewer for wages per employee compared to their contemporaries in the West. But still, earning 300k yen by just doing menial chores is super outrageous it isn't even funny NaotoKan: It still doesn't even remotely justify why they need to take such drastic measure. Not even the likes of both Chinas (Mainland and Taiwan) and South Korea would ever go as much as abolishing the entire scholarships just to keep their populace happy and 'pure'. |

Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by Nobody: 9:11am On Jul 22, 2020 |
peacefull: First, I must commend your improvement on written English. I'm delighted because it really shows that practice makes improvement. Well done. To your questions: I compared Japan to those countries because Japan's economy can be compared to them including patents' applications, trillion dollar companies and status in the global community. I didn't say Japan should copy America's working lifestyle but like Majisuka said, having the US style PhD study in Japan will endear many bright students to Japan. Currently, the vast majority of foreign students are in language schools not degree awarding tertiary institutions. Also, in the Amazon link I posted, the author explains why institutions in the US have been consistently the best because she attracts the best and brightest. This is evident by the disproportionate number of American schooled winners of the Nobel, Fields Medal, Wolf Prize, Abel Prize etc. Furthermore, the birth rate in Japan is plummeting rapidly and according to a recent study published in the Lancet, by the end of this century, Japan's population ditto Spain will be reduced by 50%. If Japan is to sustain her strides in development, science and technology admist the competition from Korea, China, India and in the future Indonesia, she has to change her educational system to attract talents. Prior to Covid-19, some universities merged due to declining students' applications as a result of low birth rates. With Covid-19 and remote working and studies, more universities will either close or merge especially those in hinterlands. Lest I forget the debt levels of the government and low population of young people to pay it forward as regards to the pension system. |
Re: Japanese Visa And Travelling To Japan by Nobody: 9:16am On Jul 22, 2020 |
majisuka: She's really shooting herself in the foot because with the declining birth rate and disproportionate number of foreign students in language schools instead of degree awarding institutions, it will be hard to attract talents and compete in an increasingly competitive world. |
