Join the LCJ Family
All the benefits of an American General Education, all the adventure of living in Japan!
It doesn't matter where you come from, LCJ is the next step in your education, and in your life. Perhaps you're graduating from high school soon and want more than just life at a local college. Maybe you're looking for a doorway to enter an upper-tier U.S. college. You could be leaving the military with GI Benefits. You might already live in Japan, attending an international school, looking at your options for moving forward. Whatever the case, if you're looking to start a college career, LCJ offers unique opportunities you can't easily pass up.

Follow Through
After finishing your Associate of Arts degree at Lakeland College Japan, you can go anywhere you want. But our home campus in bucolic Sheboygan not only provides a wealth of choices in a welcome setting, it also provides scholarships at a school which is already eminently affordable. See what you could have.
Key Benefits of LCJ:
- Easier Access to Competitive U.S. Universities – Students who perform well can gain entrance to competitive universities with an A.A. degree more easily than they could if they had applied directly from high school.
- Able to Transfer to Japanese Universities – Those students who decide to complete their education at a Japanese university can easily transfer their credits.
- Personalized Education – The Lakeland faculty and staff spend numerous hours advising students individually about their academic careers. Although students do not need to declare a major at LCJ, the students appreciate the advice and guidance the faculty and staff give them in choosing a major when they transfer to another campus. In the American education system, students do not need to declare a major until their third year.
- Student Visas – LCJ is able to sponsor student visas in Japan because the Ministry of Education recognizes it as a foreign campus in Japan. As a result of this recognition, LCJ is entitled to sponsor visas for both matriculated academic students and students in the English language program. (See p. 27 for visa details.)
- Economical – Students living in the Tokyo area can commute to school. Tuition fees are comparatively low.
- Scholarships – All LCJ students who decide to complete their B.A. degrees at the main campus in Wisconsin will receive scholarship awards ranging from $4,000 to $7,000 depending on their academic performance.
- Safe Environment –Students can complete the first two years of an American college education in the relative safety of Tokyo.
- Convenient – LCJ is in lively Shinjuku and only minutes from the nearest train station.
- Entrance Three Times a Year – Fall (September), Spring (January), and Summer (May).
- Nurturing Environment – The faculty and staff know all the students by name, and the close student community is open and accepting. Professors can give students individual attention within the average class size of 16.
