I am 17M, turning 18 next week. I am from a middle or lower middle class Indian family and the traditional engineering route here is really tough and competitive and doesn't giramtee even an above average life. As my 12th grade is almost over i did a bit of research on my potential options for further studies and I found out about MEXT.
I am not really sure if people know about it so, MEXT is a fully funded government scholarship and it covers basically every need and gives out a good sum for survival in Japan as a student.
So i was really considering that as an option, so much so that I started learning a bit of Japanese haha, i love anime and japanese, they're both cool asf lol
So i wanted to ask if this thing could work, is it a good choice to get my degree from Japan and then I could choose to stay there or go back to India with a Japanese degree and some work experience. Please do help me out as I've heard of Koreans being racist to Indians and stuff, please inform me about the potential pros and cons of coming to Japan as an undergraduate ad what trajectory could my life take, I'd love to know some insights and I am open to suggestions, they're appreciated.
