Payment Options

Various options are available. Please email ywamyokohamadts@gmail.com for details.

All applications are due one month before the start of DTS Lecture Phase but the deadline can be extended depending on various reasons. Even if the deadline has already passed, please check with us at ywamyokohamadts@gmail.com. Also, there may be times when we reach capacity… so the earlier the better!
Please note that the application process may take some time, i.e. to receive your reference back. A 90-day entry visa is good enough to take the DTS course, but if your passport requires a visa just to enter Japan, please note that you will need to apply far enough ahead of time to complete the visa process. Please consult with us through ywamyokohamadts@gmail.com.
Completion of the acceptance process includes the payment of the deposit. Even after the acceptance of school, if the person doesn’t make a deposit, there is no guarantee of a place in school. Priority will go to a person who completes the deposit process.

It can take up to 2 weeks for your application to be processed once it has been submitted. If it has already been this long and you haven’t heard back, double check that you have paid any application fees, and your references have been returned.
In case of cancellation of the school, one month before the start of the DTS, the school will notify each individual.
Two months before we will update the applicants about the current situation
If it has been 2 weeks since you have fully submitted your application and you haven’t received a response, please email us: ywamyokohamadts@gmail.com

We will let you know via email, and this will contain any future additional information you will need.
Upon your acceptance submit ￥50,000 deposit.
* Even if you receive the acceptance email, you are not fully accepted to the school until we receive your deposit.
Traveler's insurance needs to be submitted before the first day of school.

For DTS you have to be at least 18 years old and above. If you will be turning 18 during DTS, you need to submit a parent/guardian consent form together with your application.

Please comply with Japanese regulations regarding this matter. Here is the link you can visit: mhlw.go.jp (Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare)

Please note that we do not have a childcare program although they are welcome. Parents are to be responsible for taking care of them at all times.
Any families who have a member attending DTS, each family member needs to complete a health form, regardless of age or personal attendance to a program.
