Fukuoka Japanese Language School

Fukuoka Japanese Language School is based in Shimizu, in the city's Minami ward. The school offers Japanese study for learners working towards further education in Japan, with a choice of entry points that determines the overall length of the programme. Its teaching address is 2-13-5 Shimizu.

Japanese courses and entry periods

The published college-course structure includes an April programme lasting two years, a July programme lasting one year and nine months, an October programme lasting 18 months and a January programme lasting one year and three months. These different routes allow applicants to consider how much time they can devote to Japanese before their intended next stage of education.

Class assignment is based on a placement assessment. The school also describes opportunities for shorter study for eligible applicants with an appropriate existing residence or visitor status. Prospective students should discuss their circumstances and language level to establish which class and duration are available.

Planning study in southern Fukuoka

The Shimizu location is relevant when choosing accommodation and estimating a daily commute within Fukuoka. For an academic study plan, work backwards from the intended university or vocational-school admission date and compare that with the language school's entry calendar. Application preparation begins ahead of each intake. Confirm the current documentation requirements and assessment arrangements directly before making travel or housing commitments.
