Would culinary schools in Japan count as a school eligible for getting a student visa to stay there?
Hi I live in the US and Im a US citizen, but I'm kinda interested in attending the cooking school Le Cordon Bleu in Tokyo in the future. I know Japanese colleges and language learning schools do, but I'm not sure if a cooking school would qualify as an educational institution that can get me a student visa to stay there for more than 3 months. Any of you guys know? Thanks... I would just like to know beforehand so in case cooking schools really don't count, then I won't bother applying since in order to get a student visa I heard you need to get accepted by a Japanese college/school first...

I think it could be alright. You have to ask the culinary to apply C.O.E. for your visa first. I think going to Paris HO would be much easier than Tokyo school though. The expense whole during your stay would must cost very expensive much more in Japan. BTW, Tokyo school teaches in not English but French or Japanese according to their web.

Did you check their website? They say they have students from many countries. http://www.cordonbleu.co.jp/index.cfm?fa=FrontEndMod.CampusHomePage&NavigationID=44&SetCampusID=5&SetLangID=1 So I think you can get student visa for this school.

Guys' uniforms are simplier and cheaper than girl's uniforms (for obvious reasons). I know girl's uniform varies every season..however, for guys, I don't notice that they change one after each season. School years starts in April, summer breaks starts from end of July until whole of August..then another school season start on September. Graduation is on March of the following year. Most of them eat their lunches in their seats since most of them bring packed lunch at school. After classes, most of them have club activities and cram school lessons. However, some of them retire from club activities upon reaching their senior year in HS since they have to prepare for exams.

You can on either account of studying with or without visa. Most people who enroll for 90 days of less probably do it without a student visa. The some things you won't be able to do without a visa are to get part time work, open a bank account, get a membership at the video rental store, or get a Japanese cell phone. Otherwise, you can skip a lot of paperwork, so it should make things easy for you.

Regular classes of Japanese language schools are 6-12 months. So if you want to study Japanese just for 2 months, you need to go to short-term language courses.

All I can say is good luck...because you will be needing. Here's the thing the Japanese colleges are pretty fair compared to American ones- you either pass the entrance exam with okay marks (you'd be a genius to get very good and einstein to get amazing) or you fail (slight majority population). Though some people say they mark foreigners easier I'd say that's a myth. And when it comes to Tokyo U? Just be happy to be pass because it's very tough. Of course this is what I heard from some of my friends who applied or dropped out from it. It's not impossible but it's requires an a large amount of energy and studying.On a scale of 1 to 10- I guess it depends on the program but for engineering I'd think a 7-8 would be sufficient. You could try Kyoto, Osaka, Tokyo institution of technology, Kobe, Chiba...etc. The first three are right behind Tokyo when it comes to education. Kyoto is very beautiful city =)

First of all, all classes in Japanese universities are in Japanese. You can't follow the classes without Japanese skill. How much can you speak, read and write Japanese? If you can't read at all, or at basic level, it's impossible to join TUS or other universities. Many Japanese universities have mechanical engineering. So if you can speak Japanese, there would be many choices. Another problem is money. It takes about $20,000 for tuition and living cost for 1 year. It means you will need $80,000 for 4 years. TUS tuition is around $10,000 for 1 year.
