Hello I'm really happy that i would find this post because i really want to further my degrees to Japan. I just finished my STPM and it went really okay-ish i guess?. But my spm is 2As, 2Bs and 4Cs and 1D. I plan to study to japan but I have a lot of questions to make sure i went to the right path for it. Plus on 11th and 12th January 2020 there is an Education Fair certified by JASSO. Most of my education life, I don't really feel that much excitement studying here as much as i want to in Japan. So i have questions in order for myself to prepare:
1. I'm financially unstable but Ill try Affin Bank for student loan for PBT or other language schools but is there any scholarship if i get good "grades"(or points) in EJU?(or any other alternative ones) 2. if I study PBT does that mean i would stay there in the facility of PBT or do I have to rent a room for my basic needs? 3. My parents are kind of hard to convince since my grades are pretty decent but not great. Is there a way for me to convince them that I want to change and be independent?(I just started working part time job in order for myself to change because my goal of studying to japan needs to be complete) 4. For those who studied in Japan but didn't get a scholarship, how do you deal with daily life with your fundings? Is it self finance or do you have to get a student loan? P.S I kinda got discourage by my parents because of my grades and that i dont have any money as of now but I do plan on setting myself to change in a long term. So I would be really happy if i get enough help for this.

QUOTE(Kurogane___ @ Jan 3 2020, 12:07 AM) 1. Aim for public universities. In many of them, around half of the international students enrolled get 100% tuition fee reduction (so you only need to pay for living costs, which can be covered by doing part time job). There are also some scholarships available in Japan but most of them are in small amount (they are only designed to encourage you, not to cover your living cost or tuition fee). The ones that fully cover your living cost and/or tuition fees are very difficult to get and usually require interview in Japan. I am not sure about scholarships provided here in Malaysia, but I assume they are hard to get as well. 2. You will probably rent a room nearby. But I do not come from PBT so I am not sure about this. 3. Not much we can say as they are your parents, you probably know them better than we do. To be perfectly honest, I won't even recommend studying in Japan if financing is an issue. But if you can demonstrate your responsibility and grit through your willingness to do a part time job to finance yourself, they might get convinced. 4. Part time job. Some international students do more than 28 hours weekly of part time job in Japan (which is illegal) to finance for both living cost and tuition fee, but I won't recommend this for obvious reason (it's illegal). But if you get 100% tuition fee cut (as I stated in 1.), living cost alone can easily be covered by 28 hours of part time. Thanks for this information! I managed to ask my parents to take me on study to japan education fair certified by JASSO! Since i got an offer to study to japan with the help of my parents and Tokyo World Language School i am able to prepare to go there and set stones this year! Thank you so much! My parents are teachers and i'm sorry that i said financial unstable considering i am in mid class family. Thank you still! I would be able to prepare first for the study
