Hi! I am a rising senior, and I am planning to apply to Waseda as an international applicant. (I am also applying to US colleges) I know there are all the informations and requirements listed on the website, but I want to know if anyone has experienced the application process to Japanese Universities or just the colleges themselves. I do not speak Japanese, but I would love to learn new language and new culture if I get a chance to do so. If there is anyone who currently attends or has attended, can you share the pros&cons of Waseda and also how good the job placement is for intl. students who graduated from Waseda?
Thanks.
Job placement is difficult even for native students in Japan. As an international student you should not attend Waseda thinking that it will enable you to get a career track job with a Japanese company. Read about the two-tier labor market in Japan.
Thanks for the reply!
I think it’s intriguing, but I think study-abroad makes more sense.
