My son is Spero. Thank you so much for giving him the experience to speak with you and being a part of this project. He has grown so much in the last year being abroad at APU. We could not be more proud of him and what he has achieved. Now I need to find time and energy to get myself to Japan for a visit. Being a former college administrator at the University of Southern California and the University of Minnesota I can say the APU campus looks awesome! You did an awesome job with the videography, editing, music, and capturing the people of APU. Thank you!
Thank you very much. It was great meeting and speaking with him. He was kind, confident, bright, and very articulate-he certainly has a bright future ahead of him.
thank you very much for your comment. Currently he is also working as an intern at the Office of International Admissions and we are so proud of his work and growth too! We are also looking forward to seeing you soon in Japan!

I'd been waffling about whether to include Beppu on our Japan trip. This is actually making me lean toward going, now, as someone with weak Japanese language skills.
I wish I'd known about this kind of opportunity when I was that age, particularly being under the poverty level all my life. Leaving the country for anything seems an unachievable dream. I wonder if they accept adult students as well as fresh high school graduates?
I'm sure they accept adults as well, but I think its difficult getting a scholarship. I am currently an undergraduate student at this university, and I have friends in their late 20's, and early 30's.
Can't complain about my life, but I kinda wish I was 20 years younger... xD Though I'm not really sure if I'd qualify for a scholarship or exchange program one way or another, I did try applying to a Rotary based interchange program back several years ago after I graduated in CompSci, but the line was too long, and spots for it were limited, and the top candidates all had perfect English and Japanese language skills which I didn't (this was for post graduates), so it ended up not happening. I'm kinda curious as to how it would've gone... back then I hadn't even visited Japan yet (been there twice as of now), and now I'm also a Journalism graduate, needless to say lots of things changed. xD Still, awesome to see this coming from Dogen, knowing how much experience he has there... it's also impressive how more widespread this sort of information is becoming nowadays thanks to TH-cam and Internet in general. Back when I did my test I think I saw some stuff on websites, heard a bit from people who experienced it and were coming back, saw some photos, but it still kinda felt like going blind. I'd be far more confident and convinced if I had a video like this one available plus all the other channels that talks openly about their own experiences. Seems there will be great opportunities for cultural exchanges in Japan in the future... great video!
This is so crazy cause my university offers Ritsumeikan in Kansai I believe? for study abroad options and I was between this school or one in Tokyo. I think I'll be choosing Ritsumeikan, I've heard and read so many wonderful things about it and the program.

I wish that I had known about programs and universities like this when I was that age, my life would have been very different. I envy young people that now have access to studying abroad in institutions like this. It sounds like a wonderful experience.
Just graduated out of this university last year of September , would definitely recommend anyone to try their chances to apply! One of the best decisions of my life!
Can I ask if you used your own credit card when you applied?, congrats . IM CURRENTLY In my country university because I deferred applying here coz of lack of support although Im still open to transfer just in case
I’m going to be studying in Japan in April this year in Tokyo! (上智大学) Although this was a bit different it’s so cool to see what else is out there! Also, my reason for this is pretty much exactly the same as Spero. Thank you Dogen!!!
There is also an Asia Pacific University (APU) in Malaysia where I am attending. When I Googled APU I found this university as well and wondered if its the sister university or something. Really cool to see so many similarities between the two. Though I hope I can go to this APU since I really like Japanese culture.
Great video Dogen! It was a bit surreal to see you walking around campus haha. Your previous video about apu was one of the deciding factors for me coming here, so thank you!
Gotta definitely thank Dogen for bringing you and many others like you here at APU, it's really amazing to have people like you be a part of this journey! Ganbatte ne!
Thank you for upload this video!! Im a student studing for APUs entrance exam this comming Feb 1st 2nd and 7th! This video more motivated me to go to APU! Can't wait to study there!
Hi Dogen , I'm so happy that you keep on making promotional videos for APU even after leaving your job. Graduated from APU in 2017 and was happy to see all those wonderful people and campus in your interview. 💓
I'm really glad to see the care you pick your sponsors with, this content is really well done and relevant and I'm glad you're getting that TH-cam money without compromising. Great work!
This is insane!! I'm doing a study abroad at this exact university this summer. This video popping up on my Home page is such a coincidence. Awesome video! I'm looking forward to studying here in May!
i think it's a great thing! I've always wanted to go far away from home and do my best and study in these amazing environments, but due to my family's financial situation all i have is public university here in italy, which is already cheap since the fees are 2400€ max per year and every region has scholarship oprtions and the university has a fee reduction in case those don't go through. I am able to attend university without paying any tuition thanks to that, only paid the 16€ that is required for the government papers. I think it's a decent learning experience but nowhere near the experience students have at a large university campus. in my city the university has very spread out and small "campus" for different fields of study. for example mine is economics and accounting and my "campus" is just 2 buildings in the middle of the city, and i feel like, at least for and introvert like me, this doesn't help me with talking to other students because there is no common place to go and talk or do school activities that is not a small library or someone's house, and it's very difficult to just get invited into a stranger's house like that. Nevertheless I'm still working hard to get my degree and hopefully find a job not long after.
I have a question for the APU staff, what is their policy towards "mature" students? I had to drop out of academic endeavours much earlier that I would like in order to take care of my disabled mother (I was around 20) who suffers from MS. I am now 36 and I would love to be able to get back into education, something that would be all but impossible for me here in the UK due to the costs (let's just say that being a carer has left me living below the poverty level).
I’m a student here now actually and there are a few mature students around either doing undergraduate or graduate level studies. They usually just enter as normal students, there’s no real special policy towards them that I know of. I know some are able to bring their family over with them in some cases as well if that’s a factor for you I’m not a staff member so perhaps there’s other things I don’t know, perhaps shooting an email to admissions office would give a detailed answer? I definitely recommend applying if you’re interested in going back to school though or in learning some different cultures/languages ^^
@@saMANchaful Thanks so much for your answer, I'll be sure to fire off an email to them, it's also a relief to know that there are already older students there, though I have to admit that I quite relish the chance to be surrounded by younger people as I physically and mentally don't feel any different to how I felt when I was in my 20's and honestly I feel like I missed out on those years due to my situation. Thank you again for answering me, I hope everything goes great with your studies and your time over there!
Professor Akiko Honda looks like she was one of the prettiest girls in the world when she was younger and I believe you can see in her face how much experience she has in her work. Truly beautiful.
WOW..... Great episode Dogan! Totally reminds me of my journeys during my student days. Japan, Korea and China were my stops and I loved every minute in all those countries! If I were to turn back time and start studying abroad all over again!!!! Nothing would stop me from studying abroad! 100% international impact on cultural communication and management. Let´s GO!!! :D
This was the only Japanese university I would have considered (as a Japanese national brought up in English education), because of its diversity and since it was one of the only universities that offered a fully English degree in business in Japan. Usually universities in Japan only offer fully English liberal arts degrees, which was not I was looking for.
Great video! I just had a question about whether or not APU accepts transfer applicants from students graduating from junior colleges and that are planning on applying to 4 year universities. I know this is not specifically about applying to become an undergraduate but I wanted to know if you were able to apply from a junior college. Thanks!
My friend is Spero, thank you for giving the opportunity to share his story to a wider audience. He is good friend to all of us here at APU. It is a great honor for us that he represents us for the 2nd years. Sorry for my bad English 🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (3)
thank you for your question. It is quite difficult to tell you exactly how much interaction they have but basically we always encourage them to mingle together through courses and extracurricular activities. As one example, in our language course, we require an international student to study Japanese and a domestic Japanese student to study English so they do not feel too much language barriers.
I'm sure it's a great place to study, but they turned me down back when I was applying to study abroad programs. So, y'know. Fuck'em. Nihon University all the way, babyyyy.
Do you have any age limit to admit students? I'm a software engineer working in the silicone valley and studying Japanese at a local community college during my spare time. I am very interested in your school. I am not sure if I am too old for your school.

14:57 Dogen's inner teacher came out. 😂 I love that he continues to correct the students kindly so that they may learn even when that's not his given task in the moment. Anyone would be lucky to learn from him. On the other hand, these students are so bright and well-spoken! And their Japanese is quite good despite recently beginning to learn the language. This was a great video to watch, and I love seeing students so passionate about it all. Bravo students, APU, and Dogen!
I'm currently a university student majoring in japanese, but I always wanted to do a 2nd degree, can someone like me apply as well? And if you get accepted can you do part time jobs? because my friend is in japan now, and he can't.
I'm not sure about second degrees, but it's certainly possible to transfer, and there are many different part time jobs available to , though I believe there may be a limit (20 hours?) on how many hours a week individuals with student visa's can work.
thank you for your question! sure, you can come to an APU' undergraduate program as your 2nd degree. A part time job depends on their visa status and if they have a student visa and apply for work-permission, they will be allowed to work for up to 28 hours during a semester period and for 40 hours during breaks.
This is also my only option, I'm currently undergrad in my country, I deferred applying here and will proceed for 2nd degree. So no one will oppose anymore..
youve inspired me to go here. i saw your video on the guy that attended this school and after watchinf this video im even for determined to go here. i hope to go at 2025

Hearing the cost of the school and the rent, makes me legitimately angry about U.S universities
100 yen breakfast at uni sounds so good, my uk uni has a £2 lunch option which is a (disappointing) soup with bread😔

14:57 Dogen's inner teacher came out. 😂 I love that he continues to correct the students kindly so that they may learn even when that's not his given task in the moment. Anyone would be lucky to learn from him.
On the other hand, these students are so bright and well-spoken! And their Japanese is quite good despite recently beginning to learn the language. This was a great video to watch, and I love seeing students so passionate about it all. Bravo students, APU, and Dogen!
I'm currently a university student majoring in japanese, but I always wanted to do a 2nd degree, can someone like me apply as well? And if you get accepted can you do part time jobs? because my friend is in japan now, and he can't.
I'm not sure about second degrees, but it's certainly possible to transfer, and there are many different part time jobs available to , though I believe there may be a limit (20 hours?) on how many hours a week individuals with student visa's can work.
thank you for your question! sure, you can come to an APU' undergraduate program as your 2nd degree. A part time job depends on their visa status and if they have a student visa and apply for work-permission, they will be allowed to work for up to 28 hours during a semester period and for 40 hours during breaks.
This is also my only option, I'm currently undergrad in my country, I deferred applying here and will proceed for 2nd degree. So no one will oppose anymore..
As their admissions page said and dogen transferring in 2nd year might be ideal
