But here&#8217;s a little background in case we&#8217;ve not met you yet and you&#8217;re wondering if you should apply through Go! Go! Nihon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were established in 2009 because our <a href=\"https:\/\/gogonihon.com\/en\/blog\/interview-with-founder-of-go-go-nihon-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">founders<\/a> wanted to study Japanese in Japan. However, they found it pretty difficult to make the move. They wish there\u2019d been someone to ease the process and help them understand what they needed to do without all the hassle and confusion. So they started Go! Go! Nihon from a coffee shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then we\u2019ve helped over 11,00 people come to Japan and we\u2019re still going strong. We\u2019ve expanded our services to include both short-term and long-term study, accommodation support, and even part-time job support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Go! Go! World<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So where do we fit in? Go! Go! Nihon is actually part of Go! Go! World. Having helped loads of students come to Japan, we realized there was the same need elsewhere. The umbrella of Go! Go! World covers Go! Go! Nihon, <a href=\"https:\/\/gogohanguk.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go! Go! Hanguk<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gogoespana.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go! Go! Espa\u00f1a<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gogoitalia.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go! Go! Italia<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gogofrance.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go! Go! France<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gogonihon.com\/en\/trips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Study Trips,<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/schoolsinjapan.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Schools in Japan<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you can&#8217;t afford a long-term trip, Studytrip offers 2-4 week trips in each of these locations that combine language study and cultural activities. Each year we help around 1600 students travel to these countries to study abroad all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How can we help you study Japanese in Japan?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So why should you choose to apply through Go! Go! Nihon? We know there are a couple of organizations that offer similar services. But we\u2019re a little different and here\u2019s why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We&#8217;re free<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, if we&#8217;ve not made this super clear, it&#8217;s<strong> free <\/strong>to apply through Go! Go! Nihon.&nbsp;How you ask? Well, we work directly with the <a href=\"https:\/\/gogonihon.com\/en\/language-schools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">schools<\/a> and other organizations who want more international students. The problem is, that they don&#8217;t know how to reach them or how to communicate with them properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So we work with the school to simplify the process and work through the application process for you. You then pay the school the same as you would if you applied with them directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We help you with all the paperwork<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When applying to language schools in Japan, the application process can be long and tiring. That\u2019s why we have a multinational team from over 20 different countries that works directly with the schools to understand what they need. We then decipher all the paperwork and ask you for the information in a much clearer way. We fill in the official forms, deal with any problems, and make sure you aren\u2019t caught out by any confusing language or tricky questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We work with the best schools<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you apply through Go! Go! Nihon, we improve your chances of getting into the best school for your goals. We know our schools inside and out and we only work with those that meet our student&#8217;s needs. Our list of partner schools is constantly growing to give you the best choice of schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We&#8217;ve been in your shoes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of our team are former language students themselves. Many of us have used Go! Go! Nihon services before and now live and work in Japan after finishing our studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that we have insider knowledge and understand exactly what you need to know. This includes everything about living and surviving in Japan, as well as finding the right school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We cover the whole package!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The variety of things we can help you with is so broad it needed its own section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s what we\u2019ll help you with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Schools<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We partner with the best schools across the country.
