If I were to become an exchange student and the year ends would I be able to apply again for the same place in Japan? Sorry I’m not very familiar with how exchange programs work.

For becoming a Highschool exchange student there, do you have to take any entrance exams

Can exchange student work part-time in Japan?

Keep Vlogging Sae! I just stumbled across your page, going to restart my vlogging and make it a habit to do it.

i will go to us as i have past my 15 6moths ago

Do we have to buy the school uniform by ourselves?

I know YFU changed the age range. Im leaving in a few weeks and Im at the end of my junior year of highschool.

ik this is very late but i have a question. so i want to go to japan in my first year of high school and so japans school year starts in spring meanwhile Sweden starts early august so i wondered if you go to japan once you actually are in high school in your country and you have to catch up on everything or if you actually leave when school year in japan starts?

Thank you for the tutorial! I'm 14 and hope to go on exchange the next school year. Convincing my parents is probably gonna be quite a hard task since we already moved to another country and I don't fully know the language yet, but I really hope I can go since I love the Japanese culture and language.

crazy story, (you probably don't care but I kind of need advice and kind of just insight) i saw a tiktok about how someone was an exchange student in japan just about a month ago. tbh i kind of forgot being an exchange student was a thing and when i saw that post i was so excited about the idea of being an exchange student, but i never thought i could. after i started digging through tiktok and youtube for other people who went on exchange student programs (for highschoolers specifically) i wanted to sort of live through them, beccause the idea of studying abroad seemed so far away. But then after watching so many videos on it I really was determined to actually be an exchange student. I starting searching through the internet for student exchange programs that were 1. in japan 2. not too expensive 3. gave you host families 4. for highschoolers 5. allowed freedom (i saw some student exchange programs but realized they were for like a week only and they took you to predetermined spots, id love to go sightseeing but not for the entirety of the trip, also just general freedom to do things) 6. year round/ a whole academic year (i wanted to experience the culture throughout different holidays and stuff) I made a study abroad folder that's actually still in my google chrome bookmarks right now, after at LEAST 4 hours of lookning around I found 7 promising programs, but the application process and everything still seemed so far. The main reason for this is beacause one of the top things I was looking for in exchange programs was having it be a whole academic year, but I wasn't sure how that'd clash with MY school. My school is a colligiate high school meaning for 2 years you do highschool and for the next 2 you do college, you graduate with an associates degree and a highschool diploma while most other students only graduate with a diploma. I really wanted to get into this school at first and I'm so happy that I'm here, but I was so worried how the education systems would line up considering the education system in my school is already cut down to whats absolutely necessary. So im sat there wondering how to convince my mom to let me go, how to get funds for this, which abroad program to choose out of the 7 (and i was gonna continue searching for more programs), if i should go at all, and how ill do all this while STILL being in my dream highschool. So I did what anyone would do (as a christian, its okay if your not thought :) ) and I prayed. Well today an organization went to my school, and explained/offered a studying abroad program. They were talking about how its a lot cheaper than other programs, they offered everything I wanted and more, and I'd still be able to graduate from my same school with a degree. (this was earlier today btw) I was SHOCKED that this would appear right now, and it had Japan listed as an option for where to go (which was another problem I ran into looking for cheap(er) study abroad full academic year programs) and I walked away with a flyer. I also just recently picke up Japanese again, it feels like theres so many signs I should go and everything is already falling into place. I was just praying about whether or not I should even go, because not that it seems like something that could actually happen im starting to feel a bit nervous. I'd have to work hard to learn a completly new language, keep up with the education system over there, and most importantly- be away from my family for a year (whom I'm VERY close with and I honestly love them so much, I'm so lucky and grateful for my siblings). Then I opened my laptop, and see this video. "How to Become an Exchange Student + Tips". It was the first thing I saw when I opened my laptop, I didn't swap tabs or open youtube and this was the first thing that appeared, it was already there. And if that wasn't enough, when I start the video (because the video wasn't started yet when I opened it) one of the first things she says is that she was an abroad student in Japan. Im nervous about how to present the idea of studying abroad to my mom, but everythings already falling into place and I this is something I should do. Any tips on how to convince your parents to let you go- for a whole academic year no less?

hey I want to go an exchange to Japan next year but through schoolarship can u suggest me some ways

im in 8th grade and i want to spend my first year of high school in japan for the experience and just to be happier. i think being holed up in the place i live, as a growing person, isnt ideal and i want to see more and feel more. is there any inexpensive way for me to apply anywhere and also any tips on how to tell my parents..their rather strict.

Question for anyone whos been an exchange student in high school. How did yhis affect final exams. Did you have to reatke them? Or not take them at all. And how did you pass from one year of school to the other without taking the required classes? This is a a thing that worries me quite alot.

How did you deal with the change in academic calendars (if there was any change) I want to exchange but my school ends in May and school year in Japan starts late March.

Were you required to learn how to write in Japanese

I want to do an exchange year in japan next year because then my a lvls start but i still need to know more so thanks for that video :)

i wanna pay my afs application fee but it wont load, it just shows a loading logo and nothing else

AFS isn’t available where I live (Saudi Arabia) I’m so sad 😭💔

You traveled to my heart in a exchange program 💘 🙂

i’m in 9th grade, just starting high school. i really wanna do this but i also don’t want to do the extra year when i come back. I also plan on moving to japan so i’m not sure what to do haha!

I'm going with sts to japan (since my dad did at my age). But I also signed up for asf and rotary. I got excepted to all three organizations. But in the end it was between sts and afs. I went with sts since I got a more cheerful and happy vibe from them. The whole asf thing with the calling made me really nervous and stuff. There were a LOT of documents compared to sts. So I think if you live in Europe sts is a really good option.

Are you living alone?

Are there any exchange program for 2023 that's fully funded including round trip plane fairs?

I’m 12 and working to be an exchange student in Japan. I’ve wanted to go there since 1st grade, and I only remember one word lol (より night) but I’ll come back in a few years and say how it went and if I actually got to go

I'm thinking about becoming an exchange student and have applied for more information about the 'Rotary Exchange Program'. I'm mostly worried about the difference in school expectations and curriculum, like the standard of learning. I was wondering if you have any tips or information about the education difference in Japan. Thank you so much, I really appreciated your video <3

Video nice

I am my India

Hello friend

I'm 14 and I wanna be an exchange student in korea. Do you know any exchange programs that takes students from Bangladesh? it'd be really helpful. And thank you for the detailed video<3

im to tall for afs bruh

This is very helpful, thank you very much

So I wanna exchange for high school for both junior and senior but I'm turning 17 this year so idk I'd I am allowed to do it anymore

I have a question, did you have to deal with covid during your exchange? I'm planning on going to Japan during year 13, but I'm not sure if I will be able to with covid. I'm from New Zealand and covid isn't too bad here, I'm just not sure, you know?

I want to go to Australia Greece I not Greek so I have to learn Greek but I’ve being practicing since November of 2021 so I’m really excited if I go!! Thanks for the advice

Can I still exchange even though I’m already a junior in high school?

Thank you I want to go for my 3rd year if high-school. I’m a freshman currently so like in 2 years I’ll keep you updated.

Is sweden a popular country?

She’s so pretty 🥺✨

Thanks for the advice, however, I can’t, I would love to see my embarrassing face, I want to be a transfer student and I wanna study Japanese but I don’t have enough guts and I am introvert so this makes my dreams even more delusional

Could anyone recommend me some fully-funded (I’m broke) exchange student projects in the near future? I’ve looked up KAKEHASHI project, but I don’t think they have European countries and since I’m an asian expat living in Europe, it’s hard for me to meet some of the eligibilities.

What age do you think the maximum age requirement is to apply for Yufu? I'm 12, turning 13 in December, and I think next year I will be a freshmen in Highschool. I've been wanting to apply to be an exchange student for a while since I have family friends there and also because I'm very interested in the culture, but I'm not sure which program I should apply to and how. Also, do you have any tips for learning Japanese? I was trying Duolingo, but I've been seeing people not recommend it recently. I hope you read this, and thank you! (ps: I will be buying physical books to learn as well! however, I currently do not have the funds to do so :,))

Make sure to research which programs you study with. I have heard of some programs have relocated kids and put many Asian students in areas that had high hate crime rates. We shouldn’t support a program that supports anti-Asian hate. Please stop Asian hate! So please make sure to research before you go.!

I remember i wanted to learn japanese when i was younger cause i wanted to be a exhange but their prob really smart there way above me a

I'm 20 but can I explore the high school ?

I'm currently 13 and I'm in grade 8... I'm hoping to apply in exchange programs after i learned the language and i do have some friends that can help me in japan, I'm really trying my best at school right now to be an exchange student I'm so curious about japan i take classes on discord for learning japan i hope at2023 i can already participate in the japanese exxhange program, I'm so excited:>

I want to exchange but I don’t think my parents are for it

I’ve never been to Japan and my parents don’t want me to go to Japan. I’m only in high school and can barely speak Japanese so is it fine to go to a Japanese school without knowing much Japanese?

I think the Japanese school year starts in April and if that’s true then I would still be in school for another month or so. If I wanted to be an exchange student how would I (if it is even possible) be able to complete the year and gain the credit, still getting to go the Japan the upcoming year?
