Japanese students studying abroad down by 98% in 2020

posted on: April 14, 2022

A survey was conducted by Japan Student Survey Organization in which it was found that Japanese students going to study abroad hit a record low fall of 98% in 2020 due to the coronavirus. Only 265 students went to South Korea as compared to 6970 students from the previous year. The United States of America welcomed 240 students which was earlier 17898 and Canada 189 from 9135.  Among the students coming to Japan for studies, Chinese students saw the biggest dip but they were still the highest in numbers followed by Vietnam. Japan hopes to get back towards normal life as the corona threat seems to end and so does the education system.
