Can I pay tuition fees in installments?

Of course you can.
The first half of the course is to be delivered first, and the second half is to be delivered by the end of July.

I am having difficulty paying my tuition fees…

Although there is a limit to the number of recommendations we can make, we can introduce you to the Japan Student Services Organization (JASSO) scholarship program.
We also have affiliated educational loans, which means that we have educational loan contracts with credit companies, allowing you to receive the necessary tuition loans with simple procedures.

Is the Hawaii internship included in tuition fees?

Only those who wish to participate can do so.
Participation will incur a fee in addition to tuition fees.

Can I apply for a scholarship?

After enrollment, an information session will be held in April or May and applications will be accepted.
However, you can be more certain if you apply for the "reserved scholarship program" while you are still in high school.

Could you please tell me how to apply for a scholarship?

Although it depends on the scholarship system, we recommend that you apply for a reservation in the spring of your third year of high school, when there are as many available positions as possible.
We do have recruitment opportunities in the fall, but the number of positions available is limited.
You can also apply in May or June after enrolling at our school.

My high school has made a reservation for a scholarship, but what are the procedures after that?

If you have already made a reservation at your high school, the procedure will be completed after you enroll in April, so please keep all documents you have on hand until April.

It seems there are scholarship students from SS to C, but how are they divided?

The decision will be based on the score of the written exam and the interview. Our school places great importance on individuality, so the interview will have a big impact on whether you are accepted or not!

If I am not accepted in the scholarship exam, do I have to take the recommendation exam again?

That's not the case. The scholarship exam is used to determine whether you will be accepted as a scholarship student and whether you will be admitted, so there is no need to worry.
If you are not accepted as a scholarship student, you can enroll as a recommended student with priority.
In this case, there will be no additional application fee and you will not be required to submit any additional documents.

What is the level of the scholarship written exam?

It's high school entrance exam level.

Can I pay the application fee in person instead of by bank transfer?

Please be sure to pay the application fee in advance.
Hand-delivered applications are also accepted.

The employment rate is over 95% every year, and each student works hard to find a job.
During the job-hunting guidance, we will teach you how to prepare for job hunting, how to dress appropriately, and other specific methods for job hunting.

As a result, we not only have a large number of job openings, but we are also able to provide information that meets students' needs.

Will the school help me find employment?

We have teachers in charge of each region and field, and since we have sister schools across the country we can introduce you to job opportunities in various regions.

I think it would be very difficult. Currently, we do not have any students who are working full-time.

What does the exam for international students consist of?

Your language ability will be assessed through an interview and a written test.

In my third year of high school, should I choose to study humanities or science?

The content you learn at a vocational school is completely different from what you have learned up to high school, so it doesn't matter whether you are in the humanities or sciences.

What is the difference between a university and a vocational school?

Generally, universities are four-year programs and vocational schools are two-year programs (this varies depending on the school and department).
At university, students spend four years studying to improve themselves, but at vocational schools, as the name suggests, students learn specialized knowledge in a particular field and are supported with a curriculum that allows them to immediately put this knowledge into practice in society.
If you have already decided what kind of job you want to do or what career you want to have, then I definitely recommend a vocational school. You will definitely be able to learn specialized knowledge and skills and be able to play an active role in society.
