Any Gap Year programs in Japan for a soon-to-be high school grad


Any Gap Year programs in Japan for a soon-to-be high school grad?
Does anyone know of any gap year program in Japan for a Japanese HIGH SCHOOL? I would like to go for a 13th year of high school, and I've found a few programs, but I just want to make sure that I haven't missed any. Thanks!

When I looked into exchange in Japan 7 years ago, I heard that few if any programs will accept you once you have graduated from high school (it may be a visa issue). It may be wiser to try to go in your junior year (if you are not doing it already). I did a summer abroad through AFS. Check their D.O.B. cut-off dates to see if you can do any of these programs after high school graduation. My 18th birthday was late August, so I made the cut-off by 20 days or so.
