I like that there was private bathroom and kitchen space for yourself. The dorm manager making meals was also an enjoyable part of living at the dorm.

Any comments or tips for prospective/new KCP students?

Definitely study and do your homework before going out. There is always time to go out and explore. Remember your priorities! Talk to the professors if you have any trouble after class and go to English Support as much as you can.

I’m a bargain shopper so I looked at a lot of different study abroad options in Japan before selecting KCP. I was slightly worried because I literally could not find any bad comments about KCP anywhere online, and that made me suspicious. … But the truth is, KCP is simply the best! I have no complaints at all. For anyone seriously interested in learning Japanese, KCP is fast-paced but really fun. I totally recommend it!
