i went to Naha japan and the scholarship paid for EVERYTHING. also attempt to email high schools and ask if they allow internationals. You may be able to get in and they will help with a host family. You can make your own opportunities! even if you do not speak japanese you will learn a lot very very quickly. I went and did not speak a word of japanese and 6 weeks later i had quite a vocabulary and hold of the language.
