Is it better to study in Singapore or Japan?

Many domestic students choose to study directly in nearby Asian countries for convenient transportation, such as going home. Japan, Singapore and South Korea are three popular countries, so which is more suitable for studying abroad, Singapore or Japan? What are the advantages of studying in these two countries? Follow me to have a look! Welcome to reading.

Is it better to choose Japan or Singapore for studying abroad?

1. Easy language

As we all know, learning the local language is a prerequisite for studying abroad. In these two countries, language is basically not particularly difficult for China people. Japanese universities offer special language courses. If your language score does not meet the requirements of the school at the time of application, the school will provide you with language courses. After completing the language course, you can go to the undergraduate course. Besides, compared with other languages, Japanese is a mixture of English and Chinese, so it is not difficult for China students to learn. Although it is difficult to apply for a university in Singapore and English is used in teaching, Singaporeans often communicate in Chinese in their daily lives. Moreover, given that more than 70% of Chinese in Singapore, the language level of studying in Singapore is not particularly high.

2. Academic ability and world status

Japan:

Japanese education enjoys a very good reputation all over the world. Many universities and majors can rank among the top in the world, especially some related majors in art, animation and medicine, which can rank among the top 30 in the world. There are more than 700 colleges and universities with advanced teaching facilities, first-class teaching materials and comprehensive courses. With strong teachers and leading teaching ideas, the Nobel Prize winners trained by Japanese universities rank first in Asia, and the government and private enterprises provide students with various generous scholarships and internship opportunities. Therefore, for friends who want to study in Japan, challenges and opportunities coexist.

Singapore:

Singapore has the strongest comprehensive education among the three countries. Nanyang Technological University and National University of Singapore can rank among the top 50 in the world and the top 50 in Asia 10 at the same time. These are enough to prove the high reputation of Singapore University in the world. In addition, the number of Nobel Prize winners trained by the University of Singapore ranks second in Asia, which shows that the scientific research strength of the University of Singapore is also very boastful in the world. In addition, schools in Singapore are the most easily accepted by British and American universities in Asia. Singapore will be your best foundation in Asia if you have opportunities for further study in the future.

3. Studying abroad for employment

Singapore is naturally a very good choice for studying abroad and employment. Because many Fortune 500 companies have their Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore, and these companies recruit people locally in Singapore, whether you are a native of Singapore or not, they will open their doors to high-quality talents. In fact, most of them are students from China. Singapore is also an immigrant country, and its immigration policy is relatively loose. Students who apply for public universities in Singapore can get immigrant visas 1-2 months after graduation. In addition, Singapore can directly invest in immigrants after graduating from master's degree.

After reading the comparison between the two countries at five levels, I believe everyone should have a steelyard in mind and know which country they want to apply for. In fact, the choice of studying abroad should be based on your own conditions, make plans in advance, and make the most favorable choice for yourself.

4. Study abroad expenses

Japan:

The cost of studying in Japan is still relatively low. The annual cost of studying abroad is about 2-3 million yen, or about 200-300,000 RMB. And the pressure of life is relatively high. For ordinary international students, in most cases, Japanese students need to work, in addition to family subsidies. Japan supports legal work-study programs. Work up to 28 hours per week (4 hours/day), with unlimited working hours in winter and summer vacations. Japan's economy and service industry are developed, and it needs more short-term and hourly workers. The minimum wage for working is about 800 yen/hour. It can basically meet your daily expenses.

Singapore:

The tuition fees of public universities in Singapore are generally around S $20,000, which is about RMB 6,543,800+10,000. The cost of studying in private universities may be higher, about 30 thousand Singapore dollars, and the annual living expenses need to be about 6.5438+0 million Singapore dollars to 6.5438+0.5 million Singapore dollars. Calculated, the cost of living may be higher than that in Japan. The Singapore government stipulates that students in public universities should not work more than 654.38+06 hours per week. Illegal workers will be sent back to China. Therefore, if you want to save some expenses for studying abroad, you'd better apply for a public university when applying for studying in Singapore!

5. Difficulties in visa processing

Japan:

Japanese study visa is the easiest of the three countries. As long as you successfully apply for a degree from a Japanese university, the university will reverse it. With this umbrella-like artifact, the success rate of studying in Japan will be much higher. You may need proof of language achievement more than proof of funds. The Japanese government requires foreign students to have 156 hours of Japanese learning experience, which is a dead requirement. If you don't have enough language learning,

Singapore:

It is relatively difficult to apply for a study visa in Singapore, not only in the amount of deposit, but also in the high refusal rate. In the process of applying for a study visa in Singapore, you must not show immigration tendency, and you must not have a record of visiting schools that have studied in Singapore before. At the same time, if you want to apply for studying in Singapore for a long time, you must provide detailed proof of income and employment, otherwise you may be rejected. When providing information and documents, we must pay attention to the authenticity of the documents, otherwise we will never be able to apply for a successful study visa in Singapore, let alone for the first time.

The above is an introduction about studying in Japan or studying in Singapore. I hope I can help you.
