That's a years worth of having a shitty minimum wage job, assuming you live with your parents and have no expenses.

And it's like 2 and a quarter years of autism money, estimated of course.

Cheaper to study abroad then it is as a domestic student in the US? Sounds like your reaction is about right.

Why the sage?

It costs me like $4-5 k here in the U.S. for tuition,

>>8680294

I still laugh at how 4chan doesn't understand what sage means.

If only I knew moon so I wouldn't have to spend time on a board that imports foreign concepts and then DOES IT WRONG all the time.

Using sage as a way to "insult" someone's post or thread is just completely wrong and a retarded misuse of a good feature that is so popular in sites like 2ch and Futaba. Fuck, iichan and 4-ch do it right. It's just 4chan and 4chan's lame knockoffs that fail at using sage.

The true meaning of sage means that YOUR POST isn't worthy enough to bump the thread. It's ironic, because you think that you're insulting others while you're just, in fact, insulting yourself. Yes, sage can be used when posting a derogatory comment in a thread that you don't want to bump, but posting with just the word "sage" accomplishes nothing but contribute to spamming the board. The trend of replying with the name of a tripfag and sage is even worse, as it accomplishes nothing and only serves to increase the e-penis of whoever you're "attacking".

The sage feature was never meant to serve as an implied insult or general disagreement! Why people started using it that way is beyond me. There are plenty of reasons why one would choose not to bump a thread with his reply. For example, bumping threads with stupid one liner replies should be discouraged and those people should be coerced into using sage instead.

I want to use sage, yet I almost never do it on 4chan because people will jump on me thinking I'm insulting their post or something.

>Why the sage?

It's obviously because they hate you to death. Run for your life.

>>8680294
>Why the sage?

Oh boy.

>>8680302
Nice copypasta, but I never implied it was an insult. I just asked why because there is something to discuss and typing it in takes extra effort.

>>8680294
Look at this nerd!

Minimum wage is 24,000 USD a year in the US? Holy shit. I make 6,000 USD where I live, before taxes

>>8680325

>itt

>>8680312
Maybe because this thread is off-topic?

>>8680324
sure it is

Ok I'm wrong. whatever.

$24,000 is in no way cheaper than normal tuition for a year. That is absurd

>im o n4chan that means im supposed to be an austisc child and act like an asshole to everyone xDDDD
>am i cool yet?

bump just to spite you faggots

>misconverted 240,000 yen into dollars

>>8680329

8 dollars an hour, assuming you work 40 hours a week is is 320 dollars, 1280 a month, and 15360 a year, so I suppose not, get a loan I don't know. 24k isn't all THAT much for someone who works and lives at home regardless, especially if they plan on going abroad.

And I know some people don't understand this but, you really can make more than minimum wage.

wait..... what about those free study abroad programs with ryugakushiken...? i heard that you receive scholarship and get a free plain ticket... you also don't have to pay for anything other than your living expenses...
was this all a lie...?

>>8680340

Looks like you're still too retarded to know that sage isn't an insult, good going.

>>8680360

Just becuase you're accepted to a school doesn't necessarily mean you're scholarly enough to be given scholarships.

>>8680341
No sir. It isn't listed as yen

>>8680363
Looks like you're still too retarded to understand no one is talking about sage except you.

>>8680369
>accepted to a school
i'm "talking" about university. what if i have a nice ryugaku mark and at least a N3 JLPT passed?

>>8680391
quit

>>8680349
Oh I see. Not sure what our min wage here is but I'm getting about 2 dollars an hour

Cost of instate student to study and live on campus: $31,200
Cost of instate student to study and live off campus: $28,400

Both > $24,000

>study abroad
>college

Yeah, fuck off normalfag.

>>8680398
>Study and live
>and live
That shit is probably including all sort of shit in it.

At my university its like ~$170 per credit hour. Max of 18 is allowed per semester. 170x36= $6120

Housing in Japan would cost me 640,000 yen, or $7749.

I pay $500 per month in rent here. For 1 year, thats $6000. Remember, the program is a school year, not a calender year.

The costs are ridiculous

>>8680382

Well seeing how no one's "acting like an asshole" it's the only thing I could grasp out of that context, especially since you were, "bumping out of spite"

This is an off topic thread, /jp/ isn't about the country of Japan, don't except many serious replies, and don't except many people to bump it. Maybe you should lurk more next time.

Go fuck off to /a/.

Why the fuck would you want to study in Japan? Why anyone would want to do anything but visit Japan is beyond me, weeaboofaggots.

lolwat

>>8680436

Yeah, no one's acting like an asshole. You're the one showing a sever lack of etiquette on a board you clearly don't frequent and yet too stupid to know it.

If I'm good looking... I mean really good looking. Is it possible for me to get scouted by some model agency in Japan? I'd love to have money to buy stuff in Akiba(games, doujin stuff, figurines anime goods etc.) , while studying for a year in Japan.

>>8680450
Are you japanese?

Same answer.

Are you sure you're not gay? Because you surely look like one. A filthy, stinky, disgusting homo.

/r/ that post by moot about /jp/ topicality

I like K-ON too, especially Yui.

>>8680452
Of course I'm not.

Isn't the whole advantage of a study aboad program that you
1. don't have to take the entrance exam
2. pay tuition for your college instead of the one you'll be studying at, saving money?

Otherwise, you would just go there and go to any university you want. What's the problem?

>>8680457
Who doesn't like K-On?

>>8680462
The problem is its expensive as shit

24,000$ for tuition, seriously?
I pay 1620$ a year where I live. At least something good about living in the 3rd world country.

>>8680468

Azusa is the worst

>>8680457
They really should have made the movie in that autism style.

>>8680471

Except that's probably like a third of what you'll make in a year as a college grad in your shitty third world country.

>>8680473
That would've been too much, I don't think I'd survive.
