Question about Japan.

Question about Japan...?
When I am 18 can I go to Japan and study an instrument at a university? I am planning to go to Japan anyway, but I really really want to learn to play the cello at a school in Japan. What would I need to do besides the obvious things. Is it possible or easy for foreigners to get into a university in Japan? I know I must know Japanese, I am learning it now for when I go there.

You must know japanese obvious,besides that is nothing special

You must know japanese, most people go to a japanese language school for 2 years in japan & therye school authorities writes a recomendation ,letter for them to the college of there choice for entrance after they graduate from there school . you also will need interview with the college authorities who will test your fluency & also pass the nihongo nouryoku shiken level 2 or 1( the hardest levels) give them your school history attendance rate etc, show them your parents income certificate because they will have to be paying your tuition & rest of the money as guarantors.write them a later of your future plans & dreams (in japanese) and then the japanese embassy will decide whether or not to issue you a student visa which is needed for university

I have questions about high schools in japan

I have questions about high schools in japan?
ok, so I am in my last year of middle school at an international school at shanghai and I want to go to high school in Japan. However, I have to try to convince my parents by actually finding a good private school (it doesn't matter if its really expensive). There is also another problem, I hardly know any Japanese. I wanted to sign up for an Japanese course, but I thought that its really hard to learn that much in so less time. Yeah, you guys would probably be suggesting me to go to an international school. However, I actually want to try a private Japanese school (I like their uniforms :P haha). So I need help. lol. please help me!!!! o.0

you are going to have to learn or not go that's all there is to it. plus do you really want to be the kid with the weird accent and barely can speak Japanese. no offense but there's a kid in our school like that(only with English) and most kids(not me) wont leave him alone.
2 :

I think you would find a Japanese school difficult, especially without Japanese. The discipline is very strict & the students work really hard. Do you want to work in Japan later? If not, why study in Japan?
