Course Registration at Nanzan University Course offerings vary from semester to semester and specific course offerings are not determined by Nanzan University until shortly before the start of each semester. For this reason, you will not receive a final list of area studies and art courses until you arrive in Nagoya and will complete course registration on-site. Nanzan University does not make course lists available early enough for you to get a firm commitment from your current college or university on credit transfers, so it is critical to get guidance from your academic advisor.

Early Arrival in Nagoya An early arrival can cause problems for you, and we strongly recommend against arriving early and entering Japan as a tourist. Your student visa covers the duration of the program which is stated on the Certificate of Eligibility that you present to Immigration officials at the airport.

There was no question in my mind that I would study abroad again.

A Long Journey

There are a lot of reactions that happen when I tell people that I'm studying abroad in Japan. But the first question I usually get is, "what are you going to eat?"

It has almost been a full week since I got here. And although I've done all kinds of fun stuff since I got here, I'm saving that stuff for my next post. If you really want to read about someone's food adventures or night life activities, read someone else's blog for now. Right now, I'm going to be talking about Jewish stuff.
