Hello! Im Hannah from Australia (16 y/o) and am thinking of applying to ICU as a September student in 2018. I start year 12 in February this year and i graduate in November. I am a Japanese-Australian (Full Japanese born and raised in Australia).
I believe that i am fluent at Japanese as i speak it at home but I am pretty poor at it with reading and writing. I have always wanted to study international business and go to a university in Japan to improve my current Japanese skills. Does anybody know how hard it is to get into ICU as a September student?

If you are Japanese you must have heard of Keio and Waseda. They are on the top of private universities. ICU is next to them in difficulty of entrance exam.
T-score 83-77 : Keio, Waseda 78 : ICU
But they say September exam is much easier than April exam. I think the score above is of April one.

Thank you for the reply!
Yes I am also considering Waseda but have heard that it is very hard to get in.. but I might give it a go as well!
Just wondering what T-scores are? does it mean Test scores? also, are you an ICU student? :)
Thanks again!

T-score is 偏差値(へんさち) in Japanese. This is the only measurement for difficulty as each university has it's own scoring system. I graduated from Keio, which was a very good school in my opinion.

No as I passed earlier than other students through recommendation-based admission. I was looking at Waseda too but Keio gave me the letter first.
