It's hard to keep up with the classes because I study with Japanese students,
but my classmates will explain anything I don't understand, and my teacher will follow up with me, so I don't have to worry.

  Department of Nursing Care and Welfare

  Nguyen Thi Suong Maifrom Vietnam

  There were times when I felt anxious about studying abroad in Japan, but the teachers at my school are always kind and caring, so I'm enjoying every day.
  The school has clean facilities and is close to the station, so I like the environment.
  Another attractive feature is that there are many opportunities to interact with other departments and Japanese students.
  In the future, I would like to work in nursing care in Japan.When I was a child, I lived with my grandfather, which sparked my desire to take care of the elderly.My current goal is to study Japanese well and become certified as a care worker.

  Department of Nursing Care and Welfare

  Biriya PaulFrom the Philippines

  I like the small class sizes so each student gets a lot of individualized support. The school has well-equipped facilities and comfortable surroundings. At Ahru, we have a habit of greeting each other, which always makes me feel comfortable. Learning specialized Japanese is difficult, but you will receive dedicated support from teachers. There are a lot of quizzes that help with memorizing the content so I believe that if I try my best I will be able to do it. I aim to become a care worker, able to use the greetings and etiquette I learned at Ahru in my work.

International students Q&A

We will answer frequently asked questions from international students.

I can't pay the tuition fees all at once, is that okay?

Tuition fees can be divided into several installments to pay.

Can I do part-time while studying at school?

Students can work part-time to the extent that it does not affect their studies. However, with a Student Visa, part-time work cannot exceed 28 hours a week. The school can also introduce part-time jobs that suit the student's wishes.

I am worried about whether I will be able to study with Japanese students.

We will support your studies and daily life. We also have Japanese teachers, so you can talk to them if you have any concerns about your Japanese.

I'm worried about whether I can make friends with Japanese students.

Ahru organizes many events, including festivals, sports and bowling trips. In addition, students also participate in clubs such as dancing and music, and practice together with Japanese students. Although it was initially difficult to communicate well with Japanese students, through these activities many students became good friends.

I'm worried about whether I'll be able to find a job after graduating from school.

Ahru holds job hunting seminars every year, providing guidance on everything from resume writing to interviews. Additionally, since there are many graduates from Earl, there are many job openings and a high employment rate.

Starting a new life, so I'm worried about my daily life.

We has a homeroom teacher system, and there is also a person in charge of international students, who supports the students in their daily lives. Don't worry, we can help you with a variety of issues, including orientation after enrolling, visa renewal, and balancing part-time work and study.

Can I take the exam even if I have no knowledge of medical care or welfare?

There is no requirement to have medical knowledge before taking the exam, when you enroll you will learn from the beginning. If you join Open Campus, you can receive exam questions from previous entrance exams.

I heard that Ahru has a lot of practical training.

We focus on practical training so students can apply the knowledge they learn at school. The internship site also has many previous graduates working, so it will be a lot easier. In addition, you can apply for official jobs at the place where you interned.
