Sakae Institute of Study Abroad

Since 1972, Japanese students seeking to earn degrees from American educational institutions have turned to the Sakae Institute of Study Abroad (SISA) for guidance through the entire process. SISA encourages students' interest in international study, and provides them with the advice and tools that will ensure their success as they meet the inevitable challenges along the way.

Our personal relationship with each student has resulted in SISA's impeccable reputation, well known to educators and students in Japan, China, and the United States.

In the past 35 years, more than 6,000 Japanese and Chinese students have graduated from U.S. high schools, colleges, and universities under the tutelage of founder Yoko Sakae and her counseling staff. More than 900 SISA students are currently enrolled in degree programs at institutions in the U.S.
