2013 JCET trip

Represent Saint Martin's University in Japan

JCET eating The Japan Cultural Exchange Tour (JCET) is a tradition at Saint Martin's University. Each year, five selected students are led by selected SMU faculty/staff to go to Japan for approximately two weeks. Participants visit three sister schools: Mukogawa Women's University in Nishinomiya (near Kobe), Okazaki Women's Junior College in Okazaki (near Nagoya), and Reitaku University in Chiba (near Tokyo). Participants will stay with two different host families and hotel accommodations are provided in Tokyo. This is an incredible opportunity to experience Japanese home life, meet other students and enjoy the sights and culture of Japan.

Thanks to the generous assistance of scholarships provided by the Office of International Programs and ASSMU, students need only to pay $1,200 and bring their own spending money.

Applications are accepted each fall. The trip takes place in May, following the end of final exams. Take advantage of this great opportunity!
