Japanese language institutions in Hokkaido 北海道 designated by the Immigration Services Agency to sponsor a 留学 student visa.
What does designation actually tell you?
That the agency has listed the institution, and nothing more. It is not a rating and not an inspection of teaching. Designation is what makes a student visa possible; it does not make a school the right one for you. That accreditation is the fact worth having: an accredited school can sponsor a student visa, and a school that is not on this list cannot.
The agency’s list carries each institution’s name and prefecture and nothing else, so there is no address, telephone number or website to show. To reach a school, search the name it is listed under.
