Dates & Costs
Did you know that Japanese language schools in Japan have four key start dates per year?
The start date you choose not only determines when you begin your studies but also the maximum duration of your visa. For example, if you start in April, you can opt for a full 2-year program, which is the maximum duration allowed. However, if you choose July, October, or January, the visa duration will match the length of your selected course, ranging from 1 year and 3 months to 1 year and 9 months.
April (2 years): Ideal for those starting from scratch and preparing for university studies or specialized jobs.
July (1 year and 9 months): Covers the full course content with additional flexibility.
October (1 year and 6 months): Perfect for those looking for an intensive program to accelerate their learning.
January (1 year and 3 months): A shorter duration but still focused on achieving great results.
