The program will give\u00a0students a chance to live in Kyoto, a former capital of Japan with a rich and lengthy history.<\/p>\n<p>This 12-week program will include Japanese courses administered by Brigham Young University (BYU), but participants do <em>not<\/em> need to be current BYU students. You can apply through BYU\u2019s Kennedy Center for International Studies <a href=\"http:\/\/kennedy.byu.edu\/apply\/\">here<\/a>. Students will take Japanese courses in the morning while afternoons and evenings are reserved for study, travel, and exploring Kyoto and other areas of Japan. By taking these BYU Japanese courses, you will earn college credits valid at BYU and transferable to many universities around the US. Check your university to verify transferability, as each university does have its own requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The program is for college students who have studied Japanese at least 4 semesters (equivalent to Japanese 202 at BYU) or have equivalent Japanese skill and experience, such as an LDS mission or another long-term stay in Japan.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full flyer from BYU <a title=\"Flyer For Kyoto Study Abroad\" href=\"http:\/\/kennedy.byu.edu\/japan-2\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Japanese Courses Offered:<\/h4>\n<p>301, 302, 321, 322, 311, 411, 443, and 345<br \/>\nFor class descriptions, please visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/asiane.byu.edu\/japanese\/courses\/\">http:\/\/asiane.byu.edu\/japanese\/courses\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Cost:<\/h4>\n<p>BYU full-time tuition (check <a href=\"http:\/\/finserve.byu.edu\/content\/tuition-and-general-fees\">http:\/\/finserve.byu.edu\/content\/tuition-and-general-fees<\/a> for the most up-to-date tuition costs)<br \/>\nAccommodations in Japan, international health insurance, and program fee: $2400<\/p>\n<p>Not included: airfare to Japan and local transportation<\/p>\n<h4>Faculty:<\/h4>\n<p>Masakazu Watabe, the Japanese Program Coordinator and Professor of Japanese, is the BYU faculty mentor of this program.
