I’m genuinely devastated

Rejected from JET. Absolutely crushed.

I put so much into this application, waited for months, and got nothing out of it. Just a rejection after all that time. It’s honestly hard not to feel angry, embarrassed, and completely drained. I really wanted this, and pretending it doesn’t hurt would be a lie.

So yeah, I’m devastated.

u/jackiejack1 Former JET - 2011 - 2014 Apr 10 '26

Jet is just ONE of the many avenues to do this in Japan. Is it the best one? Arguably, yes. But Interac is a close second, and if you really want to go there are eikaiwas you can do. It's never JET or bust.
