Answer 1

You can ask for the information from Japan Embassy in the US. As far as I know, Japan Govt. provides scholarships for foreign students through Monbusho, JICA scolarships. However, I am not sure if they offer scholarships for students from developed countries. One of the the U that I know that has the English speaking department is Sophia University. The U. will look at your GPA but they will also look at your easay and recommendation from your profs. At the University that I studied in Japan, if your have a good GPA on your first year, you can apply for a scholarship. They'll give you 30-50 percent of your tuition fee.
