Masters degree in Japan as an older(30+) student.

Hi everybody.

I'm currently studying computer science Bsc and when I finish I would like to study in Japan for Msc. I have a few questions.

  1. What are the chances of getting accepted to a Japanese university for masters at age 33? Also chances to get student visa?

  2. Even if I got accepted into uni and finish it what would be my odds to secure an IT job as a 35 years old new grad?

  3. In my situation would it be better to do an Msc in Ireland (where I live), and try to move to Japan after the Msc? Computer Science Msc in Ireland only takes one year to finish. Like this I would be one year younger when I enter to the job market.

I'm studying Japanese language as well. I will be around N2 level by the time I finish Bsc.

I'm genuinely open to any suggestions/advice how can I increase my chances to achieve my goals which are to live and work in Japan for a long term and possibly settle down there
