U.S. College Information Session in Osaka 2011
Sunday, June 19 1-4 pm
Organized by U.S. College Alumni Network in Japan (USCANJ)
With support from alumni clubs of U.S. colleges and universities in Japan, alumni volunteers will be organizing an intercollegiate information session on U.S. undergraduate programs on June 19, 2011 in Osaka, with the goal of disseminating accurate and up-to-date information on U.S. colleges and the U.S. college application process to motivated and internationally-minded students at primarily Japanese-speaking junior high and high schools, their families, and Japanese junior high and high school instructors. The session will be conducted mainly in Japanese, but students at international schools and their parents are also very welcome to attend.
The organizers' hope is to provide junior high and high school students in Japan with a chance to learn and think further about the various educational opportunities that are available to them in both Japan and the U.S. We would also like to address any concerns the students' parents and school instructors may have. Also, we would like to express our special thanks to Izumi High School for hosting our event.

Bryn Mawr, Cornell, and Harvard. Any additional colleges will be updated on the USCANJ website.
