Hello, I'm new to the forum! :wave:

I am getting all my applications and things ready to study abroad in Fall 05. I'm getting very excited! I've chosen to study at the Japan Center for Michigan Universites in Hikone.
The only problem with this is that there isn't much information about the campus, student life, or the surrounding area. I could wait till I got there, and see for myself. But I'm to curious! Has anyone been there and/or can give me more information about JCMU?

Thanks in advance!

I'm sure there's someone here who can help you out, may take a while to get an answer though. Glad you found us. There's a lot of info here to help you get ready for your trip if you read some of the old posts. Enjoy!

Thanks for the warm welcome, and for the links! I'm really looking for someone who has been there though, and can give me a little more information then what the web seems to have to offer. (I've been google-ling like crazy!) If anyone could help, I would greatly appreciate it.

How long can Japanese understand you?

There is not a thing written in English in the Japanese site that you want to know.

It looks like these people were at JCMU and lived to tell about it.
