Summer Studying: Temple or Sophia

Postby Red Floyd » Thu Feb 01, 2007 7:22 am

I'm looking into studying in Japan for the summer, probably in a 4-3 week program. Basically I've narrowed it down to two schools. Sophia and Temple, and I don't know which one is better. It seems that the actual campuses of said schools will come into factor since summer students are shacked up in hotels for both. I beseech you, help me, FG!

What are you planning to study? 4 weeks seems just long enough to get oriented to the campus and then it's over and you've hardly had time to learn anything. Most of the summer language programs I've seen are 10 to 12 weeks.

Girls are cuter at Sophia and the campus looks/feels better. However, there is a longer commute to Sophia from the student hotel, Temple will be ok. Hell, it's only few weeks. Please be warned that the classes conducted in English at Temple are taught in a Sesame Street engrish so the Japanese students can understand. (I audited a few classes in Temple's MBA program and found the instruction painfully dumbed down....but if you're only studying Japanese it does not matter.)
