opinions on some universities please.. 2010/6/10 11:47
Good morning everyone!
it's my first time ever posting something here, (been reading alot though)

Some basic information:
My name is Martin (also known as Kingyo) i'm 21 years old and from Sweden.
I've been living in Japan (tokyo) since January 2009, studying Japanese, and currently working part-time at H&M.
I'm in my schools highest class and at the moment studiyng for the JLPT N1 as well as EJU.
I consider myself not fluent, but close since sometimes in the news etc. there are some new words and so on.
I do however not have any problems in daily life conversation, or discussing on a higher level.

So this is my ''problem'':

I'm planning to enter a university here in japan as of next year.
I want to study Management (and if possibly a litte international touch on it) as well as chinese as an extra subject.
As well as I would like the scool to be located in Tokyo-to or very close.
(and of course I plan to take all of the classes in Japanese)

Which take us to the top 3 universities i'm interested at the moment.
1. Asia Univeristy
2. Obirin University
3. Takushoku University (Takudai)

Does anyone have any experience/opinions on these?

I've also researched some on Meiji, and Keio.. (Waseda as well, but unfortunately they won't accept applicants who take the EJU in november)
Which of course are good schools, but how are their management courses? I thought that maybe it's better to go to university that's main courses are management.
Also I don't know how hard is it actually to get accepted in to these ''name schools''?
I've also heard that if you're young (or at least kind of young, like me still 21) and have good profiency in the Japanese language it's a little bit easier to get accepted. (only what i've heard though, don't know if it's true or not and not something i'm relying on)

(If I could i would probably just apply to all different kind of schools, the problem is that it cost about 2-30.000yen to apply, and that kind of limits me to about 3 schools maybe)

So please, if you know ANYTHING about these schools (acceptance rate, quality (campus, lessons) etc.) please share your experience/opinions.
Or perhaps if you know about another school which could be interesting do let me know.

Thank you!
