When it was time for me to pick a school to go to for college, I looked at my options. There’s Yamanashi Gakuin and several others, I applied to Temple University’s Japan campus, too.
Doshisha University not only accepted me, but they offered me a full scholarship. Tuition was covered. I remember showing the acceptance letter to my family on the day of my high school graduation.
To get into my university, there was the first stage of the initial application, and then an interview. I had built my resume through my internship at the University of San Diego, volunteer work at my local library, and several jobs I have had since I was 16 years old.
When it was time to apply for college, I knew my major would center around international relations. My current major is Japanese Politics and global studies.
