This stage
Cut undergraduate English degrees apart from graduate English programs: selection by high-school standardized credentials, fall enrollment, English ≠ zero Japanese — and sort yourself into B3 or returnee B4.
Before applying, record your nationality, actual place of residence, and where your documents were issued. Open the responsible Japanese embassy or consulate's visa application page to check required documents and where to submit them.
