Questions to ask at the open day説明会で聞くこと
Take these to a 学校説明会 (gakkō setsumeikai, open day) or a school visit. They are the answers no list can give you.
Getting there
- Which station and route do most students use, and how crowded is it at 7:30?
- May students cycle to school, and is there bike parking?
Classes and support
- From which year do students split into humanities and science (文系・理系, bunkei / rikei), and can they switch?
- What support is there for a student still learning Japanese (日本語指導, nihongo shidō)?
- How much homework is there, and is there study help after class or in the holidays?
Behind the results
- Are the university figures passes (合格者数) or enrolments (進学者数), and do they include students who graduated in earlier years (既卒)?
- Where do the other students go: vocational school, work, another year of study?
Money
- What does the first year cost beyond tuition: uniform, tablet, trips, PTA and club fees?
- Is there a trip abroad? What does it cost, and is it required?
School life
- How many days a week do clubs practise, weekends included?
- What are the rules on phones, part-time jobs and appearance?
Getting in
