I am a resident of the UAE who is planning to pursue my graduate studies in japan next year.
I am planning to start with 6 months of japanese language school and then do masters in an english program for 2 years.
(mostly, 2026 october – 2027 march for the language school and 2027 april – 2029 april for the graduate school)
I am confused with how the visa process works for this.
-
can I just apply for one student visa and stay till the end with that which will be more than 2.5 years?
-
do I have to get a student visa for the language school first and then extend it for me graduate school later?
-
can I just get a 2.5 – 3 years worth of student visa for both language school and graduate school combined?
I wanna get some extra days after I finish with my graduate school cz am planning to find a job over there itself after my studies.
this visa process seems overwhelming to me so I need your help on this!!
(sorry if some of my questions sounded dumb) ðŸ˜
