Studying Abroad in France or Japan Incoming 2014-2015

<p>Hi! I am a senior in high school, and thinking of taking a gap year starting summer 2014-2015. I have 4 years of Japanese (AP Japanese), and my cousin is in AP French; I am enthusiastic to learn French if I decide to France. I would really really love to travel to France or Japan and do schooling for at least a year, so I could come back to reapply to Apple following my internship, or continue schooling in a UC. </p>

<p>Are there any recommendations of international universities in France and Japan that focus on science/engineering/technology (STEM courses)? It would be nice to do independent study but please recommend any programs if they are very nice. </p>

<p>For France so far I have Sciences Po,</p>
