Nowadays, many older students choose to study in Japan, and the seniors admire their courage. Although age is not a restriction on studying abroad, the probability of visa rejection is indeed greater for older students. Seniors are also experienced in studying in Japan, so today I will talk to you about the restrictions on studying in Japan at an older age.
Educational qualifications
If you want to study in Japan through a language school, you only need to have at least 12 years of full-time education experience. On this basis, the higher the academic qualifications, the better.
The Immigration Bureau will pay special attention to students who have graduated more than 5 years after their final academic qualifications. For example, if the final education is after the university year, it will be considered more than 5 years after graduation. But in the end, it has been more than 5 years since the 23-year-old high school diploma. Therefore, students with higher academic qualifications will be more lenient in terms of age requirements.
At the same time, when applying for a visa, the Japanese Immigration Bureau will care about the students' academic Xi ability, and the higher the academic qualifications, the better the Xi academic ability, and the probability of visa rejection will be reduced accordingly.
, language proficiency limitations
The academic qualifications can basically not be changed, and if older students want to reduce the probability of visa refusal, they can work on their language skills.
If you get an N5 or N4 certificate before going to Japan, you can directly prove your Xi learning ability. Even if you don't have time to take the certificate, you can still get a certificate of 150 hours of Japanese language study.
In addition to the certificate when applying for a visa, it is also beneficial for students to learn Japanese in advance. On the one hand, it is cheaper to learn Japanese in Japan, and on the other hand, you can get familiar with it and keep up with the pace of class more quickly after arriving in Japan. Students can find an online course to lay the foundation in advance, and if they don't know how to choose, they can also ask their seniors
and economic affordability
When applying for a visa, you need to submit a deposit certificate of 20w, which will be frozen in the bank for 3 months. Older students can choose their parents or themselves to be the financial supporter, and the financial payer should have a certain stable income**, and the turnover is better. If you are your own financial provider, the requirements may be more stringent.
When students are preparing to study in Japan, they should make a budget of 15w RMB for the first year.
Although you can apply for a language school after 12 years of full-time education, the requirements of each school are different, and many schools will put forward stricter admission requirements for the sake of admission rate. The seniors have sorted out a few age-friendly schools for everyone, and students who need them can collect them.
