The information online, actually you can find almost all the information
that you will need before coming to Japan and also to pursue your studies.
For example, you can know which are the masters available here,
the laboratories, the profile of the professors,
what could be the courses, the interesting courses, how is the living here,
and also the costs, and everything you will need.
So I think there are quite a lot of information that could be very useful for
all the future students who will come here.
>> Yeah, that's true, I agree.
I mean, in this Internet age, all the information is available online.
I also did the same thing, I went to the website, saw the professors I liked,
the kind of research they were doing, and ultimately, emailed one of them.
So it was just that simple and I think even all the information,
even about living here and the costs here and how to find a place to live.
Everything is available online these days so
I don't think it's a major issue to find any kind of information regarding Japan.
Everything is available in English

Yes, I think that the NHK radio has about 18 different languages.
I work in the auto service as well, and there's Spanish services, and
there's services in Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, English.
So I think NHK World radio itself provides a lot of information about Japan,
in your own language that you are comfortable with.
So that's one good resource for knowing a lot about Japan.
>> One of the online information, for example, NHK, have provided
some materials to learn Japanese, also for Spanish speakers.
So I encourage all the students to study those materials, of course.

Well, in my case, the application process we have
to take into account all the requirements for
a specific field of research of master or doctoral course.
Because actually instead,
University of Tokyo has very different departments.
Each department have its, a specific procedure.
And of course, if you want to apply to another university,
it will be a completely different procedure.
So you have to take into account those requirements.
And especially, well, in my case, my country is very far from here so
I have to arrange all the material in advance.
Because the timing for to have these materials and
also to send here it takes more than two weeks.
It could be months, two or three months.
So that is very, very important.
Gather information online about all the requirements.
And you have to fulfill them and committed to have those on time, no?
>> Yeah, time is the biggest issue, I think, to be on time.
