Hello, I am a student from Canada. I wanted to apply for MEXT undergraduate scholarship for 2017/2018 yet, I believe strongly that I should study some Japanese first before I apply. I don't really know so much about the application process. However, I have a friend that attends university with someone who received the MEXT scholarship as a Master's student. According to the student, you do not need to know Japanese at N1 level but, you should be studying it prior to going to Japan. My issue is that there are no universities or private associations where I live for which I can take Japanese classes. And at my university, I have quite a reasonable scholarship to help maintain my studies. But, again they do not offer the major I want to pursue and it isn't really about the money since the major I intend to do would be even more rewarding, if I studied it in Japan. Above all, by the time I am done my first degree, I can apply for MEXT undergraduate scholarship still or the MEXT graduate scholarship.
So, here are the questions I pose:
1. What online courses have people taken to learn Japanese? Or resources?
2. Will my credits transfer from my current university? Has this happen for anyone?
3. Should I wait until I graduate to apply for MEXT? Undergraduate or Graduate?
