Study abroad agents are convenient because they have a lot of information and can complete procedures on your behalf. However, you should be aware that they may only introduce you to certain schools, or charge extra fees for support in Japan. Before using their services, attend information sessions to confirm their cost, service content, and whether the counselors themselves are a good fit for you. In some countries, only government-approved agents can handle procedures on your behalf.
