I'm an 8th grader who wants to study abroad in their fall trimester or semester of sophomore year of high school (fall 2026). I'm a native Japanese speaker although I am not as good at reading/writing and I am speaking/listening. I've been trying to find programs to apply for but most are either extremely expensive, $15,000+ (are there scholarships?) or do not offer a high school experience; rather a more tourist experience. I visit Japan every summer for ~3 months so I am not looking for a tourist experience as I have already experienced enough of Japanese tourist attractions. Although I have always been interested in attending school in my native country. Does anybody have any recommendations for programs that they like that also offer a traditional high school experience?
