I understand that with the pandemic, we must be careful, but not having a real date it’s very difficult. We can’t plan anything, we don’t know when the borders will reopens. This is the most difficult right now, spending several months planning a new life in a another country is really stressful and not knowing when we would be able to come is a nerve wrecker. I hope the borders will open soon.

I’ve been working for all of my university years towards this opportunity. I won two scholarships through hard work, but now I’m afraid I could lose both of them. It is essential for me to go to Japan, so that I can learn Japanese and prepare my M.A. thesis.

As an international student studying and ultimately obtaining a degree from a reputable Japanese University, I believe I would be a valuable asset to Japanese society because having best of both worlds- a foreign background and perspective and a distinctly Japanese education and understanding of the functions of Japanese society.

It’s my dream to study Japanese language and meet with my old friends in Japan. I want to learn more about Japanese culture and their lifestyle. I want to organize international business between Japan and USA to improve relationships between the country and strengthen connections.

As a student I will benefit to society in Japan in the following fashion. I will uphold all ethics, morals, traditions, and immerse myself fully into Japanese culture. I am looking to become an international ambassador where I can absorb as much information about Japanese Culture as possible and bring it back to America. Additionally, I would love to provide an American’s influence to the citizens of Japan. By combining Japanese and American culture I believe it will further good relations between the countries and cultures. I merely hope to serve as an example.
