I’m currently considering applying to the Waseda Summer Program. I’m looking for anyone who has attended the summer program and can give me some advice as to if it’s worth it or not. I’ve read mixed reviews regarding Waseda in general however have been unable to find anything related specifically to their summer program.
Thank you in advance!

I went to waseda, not on the summer program but if your planing to take Japanese courses take a level below your actual level, they speed through everything. I started there as a level 0 studied for a year and can barley have a conversation. I couldn’t keep up with the exams. Id like to think I was a good student in college, but the amount of time they expected for outside work was insane, unless you just got it with out trying, which was not me 😂 on the plus side you can get really good really fast if you dedicate your self to it. But what’s the fun in that when there’s so much to do in Tokyo??
I showed up and tired my best, I think that’s why the teachers passed me though. The other classes if you go as a exchange student were good, easy but good. Campus is beautiful too!
Also be watching timing and visa restrictions, might be pushing time limits to go over this summer, and who knows with the virus stuff.
