Academic course

This course is approved by the Association for the Promotion of Japanese Language Education.
It covers Basic to Advanced level Japanese, good enough to enter University or to work in Japan. Students who don't plan to study for higher education in Japan are also very welcome to join.
Students will find the course very interesting and when they graduate, they will find that they have acquired a high level of Japanese. Students learn 4 basic skills of language; such as "Speaking", "Listening", "Reading" and "Writing" in a balanced manner.
Students will also be able to experience Japanese culture and society at much greater depth than it would be possible on the short term Japanese Language course.
The course period is 1-2 years. Students will have a placement test on their first day of school, and be placed in the appropriate class.
To apply for Academic courses, the entrance date is scheduled for each school regarding pre-college or college visa application. The entrance is basically April and October, and only ISI Tokyo and ISILanguageSchool accepts a January and July intake.
