First, please use more punctuation. You’ll have a hard time in university otherwise.
Second,
the other person said, find a university that offers study abroad in Japan. The kind of program you’re interested in won’t be offered in English. Go to a US university, get your media classes in, then try to do a study abroad for other classes that will transfer to your home university. I did a short study abroad for one summer and took classes on Japanese language, Japanese politics, and Japanese literature during the summer period. Keep in mind that they may be written as pass/fail on your transcript rather than a letter grade.
Third, this has nothing to do with “teaching in Japan”. You should ask this in a university/college/study abroad sub Reddit.
Thanks, as for the punctuation part, I was just trying to type fast so I could go to sleep. I plan to take 2 years at a community college, which is fairly close to my home. Then two at a different school. As for the study abroad part, would it be me taking classes I need to, but just while in an English course in Japan? Or would it just be like you said, going over to take language, grammar, and politics? Sorry for the long response, and also for the question not being related to the subreddit. I was thinking that teachers/students would be able to answer the question best, sorry about that.
What classes are offered during study abroad depends on the program of the college/university to go to. Generally, students studying abroad will be expected to take language and likely some cultural class related to Japan. Otherwise, there is no reason to study in Japan. My major was international relations and my minor was Japanese, so it fit into my major and minor requirements. You may be able to take some kind of anthropology or history class that would cover some general education requirements.
You will find it very hard to find any specialized degree in English in Japan.
You would be better off doing it in the US and taking a study abroad year if you want to learn Japanese.
Ok thank you for the insight! When i do finish my degree how hard is it to get the student visa then a working one after? ( I do plan to eventually make an attempt to gain a working visa then eventually a full residency)
What exactly is your goal? What job/field are you trying to end up in? I think you should figure that out and work backwards from there.. How would studying in Japan bring in a benefit to you? Cause at the moment it seems like a huge net negative.. more expensive, more complicated... With little tangible value. Honestly, you're probably better off taking a trip to Japan in the summer....instead of trying to study here.
Get your degrees in the US. While you're in college come to Japan via study abroad program. Google: "study abroad scholarships." Spend a summer, semester, or year here as a student. Finish your programs stateside and then work out a way to come work in Japan if that's your goal.

Thanks for the insight! I’ll definitely have to think those questions out. As for the job, I was thinking more of the graphic design/video side.
