<p>What is a college that offers both a great Japanese Language & Economics major and a pre med program?</p>
<p>What can your family afford? What is your home state?</p>
<p>I’m just looking for universities known for all the programs. Tuition doesn’t really matter.</p>
<p>Oh and Im an asian american in Colorado.</p>
<p>
So your parents are able and willing to pay $60K+/year for a school anywhere in the US?</p>
<p>Here are 86 colleges that have Japanese as a major. Since this is a short list you can easily scan through it for good schools and then double check on the economics and pre-med (which is usually not a major, but pre-med advising is important). You can modify the search to certain states or areas or add other criteria to narrow it down (size, selectivity etc.)

<p>Im not going to consider tuition in the application process. I’ll apply first, then see where I get in And how much i would have to pay</p>
<p>^ Any well-informed person would caution against that approach unless cost simply isn’t a factor for your family.</p>
<p>Notably missing from the above Navigator list is the University of Chicago. Chicago has one of the most famous economics departments in the world as well as a very strong East Asian Languages and Civilizations program. </p>
<p>Virtually all the schools on the Navigator list will have a pre-med program. Many of them would be very good for Japanese and economics (although it is hard to recommend specific schools without more information about your qualifications or your preferences for size, location, etc.)</p>
<p>I’m looking for schools that are focused on the undergrads, in a city, offers study abroad to Oxford, and has a small average class size and student faculty ratio.</p>
<p>Earlham College in IN has a unique and long-standing relationship w/ Japan and Japanese studies.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Unless you and your family can afford list price (up to $60,000 per year) anywhere, then you run the risk of a financial shut-out (i.e. none of your acceptances are affordable).</p>
<p>Of course, that may be ok, if your safety option is to go to community college and then transfer to a four year school to complete a bachelor’s degree.</p>
<p>tk21769 - I guess that shows a common problem when using college search engines! I did a search on “Japanese” and didn’t think to look for Asian or East Asian Studies which is how U.Chicago lists their major. So the OP should expand the search to include alternative titles like that.</p>
<p>I was a Japanese/Econ major and I went to the University of Arizona. They sent me to Japan and I studied at the famous Kansai Gai Dai (Kansai University of Foreign Languages) paying in-state AZ tuition for this expensive private school. The UofA is well known for its university hospital and medical center. I then went on to get my MBA in International Management at Thunderbird [International</a> Business School MBA Rankings - Thunderbird Global School of Management](<a href=“http://www.thunderbird.edu/about_thunderbird/rankings/index.htm]International”>http://www.thunderbird.edu/about_thunderbird/rankings/index.htm) and my Japanese was considered so advanced that they waived my language requirement. The UofA launched my career as an international businessman and I’ve done extensive business in Japan as well as 25 other countries.</p>
<p>My point? ANY major research university that offers a medical degree will get you where you want to go. Schools that I recommend are University of Washington, UCLA, UCB, UCSD – in fact pretty much any UC, Stanford (several of my colleagues at Kansai Gai Dai came from there and I always found it amusing that I was getting the same education as them in Japan at a fraction of the cost as we all paid tuition to our home institutions as exchange students). Here is a link for Dual Degree programs with Thunderbird that include the University of Colorado at Denver as well. This list of schools is on the second page. <a href=“http://www.thunderbird.edu/wwwfiles/pdf/graduate_degrees/dual_degree_mba_and_mgm/dual_mba_and_mgm.pdf[/url]”>http://www.thunderbird.edu/wwwfiles/pdf/graduate_degrees/dual_degree_mba_and_mgm/dual_mba_and_mgm.pdf</a> Any of these should have extensive language programs and Econ – possibly pre med too.</p>
<p>I was just in Japan and worked with a translator who studied Japanese studies at Harvard.</p>
<p>Earlham would be a great choice (it doesn’t show up on the Navigator list because its major is titled Japanese Studies) but Richmond IN may not meet the OP’s definition of a city. I’m also trying to understand a Japanese major wanting to do study abroad at Oxford instead of Osaka.</p>
<p>“Im not going to consider tuition in the application process.”</p>
<p>This is not a wise approach. You might miss out on valuable opportunities (like merit scholarships) if you don’t think about cost now.</p>
<p>JHU and Tufts</p>
<p>Leaving tuition aside, with no idea of the OP’s stats there is no way to make useful suggestions.</p>
<p>I guess I’m having a harder time finding “foundation” schools for me. The list of schools I have right now are Georgetown, Stanford, Yale, tufts, Emory, washu, uc berkeley, wake forest, claremont mckenna, Boston university, puget sound, uc sant barbra</p>
<p>If you want more specific recommendations provide stats. Right now it’s like providing directions in the dark.</p>
