is required, 'Student Visa' or 'Pre-College Student Visa'? |

schools issue 'Pre-College Student Visa' ,which is valid for
0.5 to 1 year . With 'Student Visa' , you can enjoy special

At our school,
based on Buddhism, students are trained for the upraising
of several skills such as business-manners, self-disciplines,
the self-management ability and etc, all of which contribute
to leading actual life in Japan securing employment, to say
nothing of proficiency in practical Japanese. We believe that
all of these skills help students to play an active part in
the Japanese society. We are also supporting students seeking
a job with job placement assistance in IT or IT related firms.
Besides, prior to the commencement of regular courses, we
occasionally hold gatherings so as to provide foreign students
with opportunities to associate with Japanese students. while
setting basic educational course related to computer. We have
also opened IT Specialist Course. This course is set on the
premise that the student is majors in that field. For detailed
information, refer to the guidance chapter for the IT Specialist
Course.
