The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan has announced an invitational program to Japan for Japanese American high school students this summer (August 19 to 27, 2024) to encourage learning about various aspects of Japan (politics, economy, society, history, culture, language, etc.) and to promote mutual understanding and exchanges between Japanese and young Japanese Americans. Please see the PROGRAM DESCRIPTION 別ウィンドウで開く and the APPLICATION FORM別ウィンドウで開く for details.
 
As this is a highly selective program where only three students from throughout the U.S. will be chosen to participate, applicants are encouraged to provide ample detail when completing the application, highlighting what qualities, experiences, and future goals make them an exceptional candidate for the program, and for fostering the U.S.-Japan friendship.
 
Residents of Southern California and Arizona should submit their application to the Consulate General of Japan in Los Angeles by email no later than Wednesday, June 5, 2024.
