If I graduate in the states will I still be able to go to school in Japan?
(I'm sorry to those of you that are keeping up with all of my questions. I know I post a lot...) Right now I'm going to a self-paced (preparatory) school which means if I wanted to, I could easily graduate early without having to switch classes or go through any of that other crap that you would in a normal school. My school has kind of a dumb thing though where none of your credits (from your current semester) transfer over from your other school. So if I were to move to Japan and then come back, they wouldn't count any of my progress... If I did graduate early, would I still be able to move to Japan and go to school there? I know I'll get questioned as to why I would want to do that, so here's my answer: I want to be able to experience the Japanese lifestyle (high school in particular) but I don't want it to interfere with my grades/credits. Also, I want to learn as much as I can in my lifetime, so I figure taking a few courses twice isn't that big of a deal. thanks! ^_^

You should ask the study abroad program, the school in japan if it is okay. I'm sure you might find a school that will allow you in.

Should i be a exhange student to Japan (during high school , in 2nd yr) if its a cultural thing
Should i be a exhange student to Japan (during high school , in 2nd yr) if its a cultural thing?
Ok i got a application for a long term exchange student from my counseling office but she told me its only for cultural thing and its due by the beginning of November. Yet she says that i might have a possibility that i might get held back only if i get a college connection but then the college connection would be by my junior year. She also said that you don't need to know the language as well because its only a cultural thing. Should i go?

I would say yes. I am Japanese and I love my country. If you like to study you can study and if you like to have fun, there are so many things you can experience. If you like to shop, Japan will be the best place to find cute things, clothes, and anything. (high qualities) I grew up in Osaka which is 2nd biggest city in Jpn so my life was pretty hectic but if you decided to go to japan, I recommend Osaka, Tokyo, Okinawa, Kyoto, Nagoya.... pls ask me if you have any questions. japonesa.mari@hotmail.com

I'm not sure what you mean by "a cultural thing". If you are a high school student and go on a long-term exchange program, you'll probably stay in a Japanese host family and attend a Japanese high school. So even if you don't need to know the language now, you'll have to learn it once you get there - otherwise life would be very frustrating. Staying in a foreign country as a young excahnge student allows you to see the country from the inside, so to speak. It's a unique experience, and I think you should go if you're interested in Japan.

I don't see why not. If you really love Japan, things like that shouldn't be a problem. If you're really questioning it, maybe you shouldn't do it.　But Japan is really unique and I think that if i was given that chance, I would take it. Over here, we don't have any programs to go study abroad whether it's a cultural thing or not...

What do people in Japan wear to school
What do people in Japan wear to school?
I need a picture and hopefully if possible a link or store name in Orlando where I can buy one. And I don't want something from Cosplay, I want something that is either what they actually wear or something VERY close.

What they typically wear: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_school_uniform Where to get them: http://www.google.com/products?q=japanese+school+clothes+and+where+to+get+them&rls=com.microsoft:en-ca:IE-SearchBox&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7ADBS_en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=EQnxSb7yHo_OMuWh-bgP&sa=X&oi=product_result_group&resnum=4&ct=title
2 :
Most wear school uniforms. It's unlikely they will be sold in Florida.
3 :
People is Japan wear the same clothes as the other asian countries wear. They like rice and chopsticks too. Japan is better at baseball now than America too. I can't wait until MLB moves away from America to Asia and Middle East, so baseball cards in America can be affordable again, and also so America can rebuild and recover from our depression.
4 :
a uniform: white blouse and plaid skirts (the ones i saw were blue) for the girls and a white polo and black pants for the guys. they also all have the same haircuts and they take their shoes off when theyre in skool and put them in little cubbie holes: its like a sign of respect
5 :
Usually a uniform. The middle school girls here wear blue and white while the boys wear white and black. The High School girls wear grey and white, and the guys still wear black and white. Try Ebay
6 :
a pokemon costume or a samurai outfit
7 :
I actually went to school there when I was visiting my grandma, and when I went there, I wore uniforms. Most of the schools wear uniforms and a couple, like 10 or 20 schools in Japan don't wear uniforms.
8 :
French maid costume with white spot on it
9 :
They are different by schools but the common ones i see in yokohama is this.. http://www.musakita.jp/pics/about/uniform.jpg
10 :
All schools have different uniforms unfortunately you wont get them in US...

Can you transfer to a different school in a different country in junior high?(middle school)
Can you transfer to a different school in a different country in junior high?(middle school)?
Hi, I'm planning on transferring to a Japanese school in Japan. I live in Canada and I'd REALLY like to know if its possible for me to transfer to a school in Japan in Middle school or Elementry school. I'd also like it if someone could list some names of schools or their websites where they allow transferring for middle school from Canada and the U.S. I'd also like it if the school had cute uniforms<3
