Study abroad in Japan, widen my perspective to view the Japanese society
by: Hamin Kim - South KoreaProgram: IES Abroad Nagoya Direct Enrollment – Nanzan UniversityBefore I provide my review, I would like to highlight that I speak Japanese well, which made my life in Japan easier than for others. My study abroad with the IES Nagoya program was enjoyable. Since it involved direct enrollment at the Japanese school (Nanzan University), I really needed help filling out tons of applications. However, IES guided me through filling out all of the applications, and there weren't even many things to do at my level. Even though I could speak Japanese, I was definite...
I not only learned, but also made many friends!
by: Jessalin Urbano - United StatesProgram: IES Abroad Nagoya Direct Enrollment – Nanzan UniversityI went abroad for the purpose of furthering my Japanese ability, and I was not disappointed. Nanzan's Japanese program is intense and rewarding; it took a lot of work, but I learned so much! Not to mention, I loved being able to learn alongside other students who cared as much as I did about Japanese. The professor's also cared about our progress and health, which made it easier during difficult classes. One of the really helpful aspects of having IES support me through the experience was the pr...
A life changing experience
by: Jacob Scarani - United StatesProgram: IES Abroad Nagoya Direct Enrollment – Nanzan UniversityI studied abroad through IES Abroad Nagoya for the Spring of 2019 through my school. The IES Abroad Nagoya program was really amazing, The program staff seem to truly care about the participants and bring you on some amazing trips. The Nanzan University program can be a bit intense due to the speed of the program (The entire Genki 2 book in 4-5 months) hence the 3.0 GPA requirement. It can be a bit stressful at times but I really forces to practice your Japanese more and improves your Japa...

I have always wanted to study abroad. I am a first generation student, and when I entered college, I was determined to eventually study overseas, since that could very well be my only opportunity to leave the U.S to go anywhere else. I was convinced that I was going to Ireland, pamphlets and UK study abroad emails and all. I started learning Japanese on a whim because I had a foreign language requirement and had a passing interest in anime. When I wound up loving the language and dedicating more of my time to it, I turned my sights to Japan and do not regret that decision in the slightest. I still need to go to Ireland, though.
