Japan/Asia Quarter or Semester programs?

<p>Hey all,</p>

<p>I'm looking into programs for a quarter, semester, or summer abroad, preferably that earns credits. I will be a sophomore, but have the credits of a junior by then.</p>

<p>My top picks are Japan, followed by Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Taiwan. My Majors are International Relations and Law.</p>

<p>I do speak some Japanese (HS 5 years, AP Japanese scored a 3, JLPT 3 or 4). Not fluent, but manageable. I know quite a bit about Japanese and Asian culture already.</p>

<p>Any recommendations in programs? Preferably a large city (Tokyo/Osaka), but anywhere is ok.</p>

<p>Ritsumeikan sent me an application for a degree program in Shiga, and an exchange program at their branch in Oita. Its costly, but they have my programs.</p>
