I'm too lazy to BBCode it, but there's the link. My teacher emailed it to me and thought I might be interested. I'm not too sure about it, seems alright? Maybe I want to learn a specific career instead of just learning Japanese culture? If it's a good idea, then I should apply soon. If not, then I should just forget that it ever happened. So my question is what do you guys think?

I don't see how that's going to be useful to a career in Japan or back home, sorry. :|

Best to learn a real skill.

I agree with dizmox.

Better to think about what you want to do rather than where you want to do it.

If you want to study Japanese culture, then it *might* be a good program, but there might be better ones. If you want to go into business, then it would be better to go to a school that can teach you business. Or architecture, engineering, computers, or whatnot.

Since they're just starting up, there aren't any guarantees as to quality. You're going to be their #1 guinea pig. Plus, you're going to be stuck with a bunch of other English-language students. You can get that in the U.S. at any university.

If you want to study in Japan, then better to work on your Japanese and try to get in to a proper uni there to study what you're really interested in, or do a year abroad while in college. Or do grad school in Japan after you've mastered the language so you'll get the best bang for your yen.

You've got time on your side, and a lot of better options.

Whatever you do, do some thorough research first and find out the lay of the land.

That's okay, my teacher only forwarded it to me. Once I saw that some classes were related to manga/anime, I mostly wrote it off. I did want to see if anybody had opinions on it though. Although the response was late, thanks. It's possible I'll pursue business at DePaul as well as take some Japanese language classes. As much as I want to study Japanese on my own, I think I need a class structure at least for the grammar. So maybe focus on a business-related major and minor in Japanese, and try to take advantage of their study abroad and other Japanese activities.
