How can I email this school? Cause Im in Canada and Its hard to me to call its cost a lot!
Mariam - Thursday Oct 15, 2009 at 08:36 AM (JST)
Hi Mariam,
Sorry for the late response, I have been traveling and am now in Tokyo for the Japan Fashion Week. Because of my hectic schedule, I don’t have time to search the site of Tokyo Designer Gakuin for an e-mail address. As it happens, English e-mails are usually ignored anyway.
I suggest that you send a letter or download Skype (free). International phone calls by Skype cost just a few dollars, even if you speak for an hour or so.
I wish you much success!
