Hi there,
I'm from the UK, aged 24 and I'm currently employed in the tech industry. I spent a year at Sussex University studying Computer Science back in 2010-2011 but was unable to complete it due to financial and personal reasons forcing me unable to continue. Currently I'm employed with a good job in tech that I enjoy, but I really want to experience university in Japan.
I'm basically making this thread to ask what kind of options I have for enrolling as an undergrad at a Japanese university in something like Computer Science or another technical field. I completed 3 years of college with the highest possible grades and a year's apprenticeship with an employer before becoming a full-time employee and of course I have a lot of workplace experience, I feel this should help my chances somewhat.
I've been learning Japanese on and off for nearly 5-7 years and while I don't have any JLPT certificates, it wouldn't take me long to get them.
My main concern is money - from what I understand, Japan has no student loan systems and I can't seem to find much in the way of clear information on scholarships - they seem to be oriented at people already at university. What sort of options are available to me to finance my studies and related costs?
