Introduction & Application Process

Hello! This post is actually a bit belated, but better late than never.

Apologies for those of you who expected a good introduction, because that is not my strong suit.

My name is Ashley! I am 20 years old, and I hail from northern Virginia. I attend Kenyon College in Ohio, a small school which consists of approximately 1,600 students, where I am a Japanese major. I will be studying abroad in Tokyo, Japan from September 15th, 2016 to July 31st, 2017. I am going through the CIEE Tokyo Arts and Sciences program, and will be studying at Sophia University, a small school (relatively speaking--there are about 13,000 students!) in the center of the city.

There is not actually a whole lot for me to say about myself, so instead I'll talk a bit about the application process, for those who may be interested.
