Travel Tips
The International Christian School ( ICU) in Tokyo is an English speaking international school.

Living quarters are extremely hard to find and Japan is an extremely expensive place.

I would bring at least 20,000, if you're planning to move there. If you want to visit, it should be about 5,000 a week.

First, you will need to apply for and be granted a visa to visit Japan. If you wish to live there for an extended tme, work there, go to school there...those things require special visas. it is very difficult to get work or study visas to Japan. the application will tell you what the financial requirements are. You must be able to show that you can totally suport yourself while there. You can go to the website below to get visa application information. And...I have listed a college program in Florida that inculdes a semester in Japan...something like that may be right for you.

You would definitely need to be accepted to a school before moving here. I would also agree with the $5000 per month suggestion.
There are several international schools here. The further from Tokyo you are, the cheaper everything becomes.
Finding housing, expecially with little or no japanese skills, by yourself would be darn near impossible, if you don't have someone who's taken care of such things before to help you.
I've heard its really expensive to live in Japan, of course there are international universities and colleges (just letting you know)
Maybe Tokyo or Osaka is good.
And maybe you should bring $500,000.
