What is the cost of living there?

      Our summer programs mostly include the accommodation and meals, so you should not expect to spend too much beyond the program fee while you are there.  For general program, or Tokyo summer with dormitory, you should expect to spend between 6-10 USD for a meal, however,  you can cook in the shared kitchen.

Do I need to immunize before I go?

It is wise to check the immunization requirement of the country you are going to.

How far in advance should I apply?

It is always good to apply early, so you can have everything ready and be well prepared for your trip.   Few summer programs may become full before the deadline.  The deadline for most programs is 45 days before the program start date.

How long does it take for the application process?

After we receive your application and program deposit,  we will reserve you a space in the program.   Depending on the program you are applying for and the country you are from, you might need a letter for short term visa application, then it will take 2-3 weeks at least.  But for a student visa application to Japan, it can take about 6 months for the whole process.  Considering the time needed for visa application and ticket booking, we advice you to apply early.

What are the requirements for the admission?

There are different age and education requirements depending on the program you are applying for.

We take students from any country if we believe there is no problem with their visa.  Our students mainly come from USA, Canada, European countries, etc.
