For context, i’m planning on going to school for fashion and i’d like to get into the japanese fashion industry in the near future. I graduate from high school in a year. My japanese skills are sub par at best, and i’m unsure about going to a school in japan because I live by one of the top fashion universities. Because of this, i’d just like to go to language school for about a year or so and immerse myself in the language and fashion culture there.
I have doubts on this though because I was thinking it’d be a better idea to get into college and take a gap year to do it, but also the sooner I get the experience the better. I wanted other people’s opinions on this because i’m conflicted. I’ve also been thinking about going to Bunka Fashion College while going to language school but I don’t know how well i’d be able to do both at the same time.
I’d appreciate some advice from people who have gone to language school or went to university in japan right after graduating from high school. Advice from those who moved to japan right after high school or just general advice is also appreciated as well!
