Their program for celebrities called as TRAIT is as important as it is well known. This is to make the student not give up on their studies, at the same time, their life in the entertainment industry can be taken care of. Therefore, this high school is a popular among the idols of Japan.
Some things a student should know:
1. Piercing, Earrings and make up are prohibited.
2. Dating is strictly prohibited. Boys and Girls have different entrance routes. If discovered, they will order them to break up th relationship. If not, they will be expelled. In the campus, boys and girls cannot talk to each other easily. Being always together might be suspicious enough for the teachers
4. The school is filled with CCTVs in order to protect the idols and wealthy students in the campus.
5. Students are not allowed to eat snacks inside the school nor buying of snacks on the way home. If they will, he/she would be in for detention.
6. The fee for the students in TRAIT course (aka Entertainment Course) is really expensive. Horikoshi adjusts to keep up with the student’s schedule, and protects the his/her privacy, With this traditional and strict program the students in this course will have to pay the specified amount of money. At the same time, the student must be an artist.
7. Also if a TRAIT student needs to dye the hair for that period of time, they will have to fill in a form, stating how long they will be in the colour. After that, they will have to dye it black.
8. Some new rules starting January 15, 2010. The artist will be supervised by teachers as bodyguards, even they had already brought their own bodyguards. Regular students are not allowed to speak with the Sports Idols / Artists during breaks or outside school. When caught, he/she will be fined, detained or expelled.
9. An Artist / Idol will be arriving at school by car, and bodyguards wait outside the classroom. This artist will be accompanied by bodyguards even at rest. Regular class pupils can not be in the same class with the celebrities nor can they speak or befriend the artist because the bodyguards only allow conversations with classmates and people who work with the artist. The Artist / Idol should not be talking to people who are not artists. If this rule is violated, he/she will be excluded from school.

ReplyDeleteShit happens....I go there...It's my first year and I can't talk to them. My friend even wanted an autograph. Lol no. NEVA!
ReplyDeleteyou study at horikoshi??
Deletethey probably don't to be honest.
DeleteIt's a great school but, it's so unfair ! Why does the regular students cannot befriend the artists!? So unfair ! And why does, only rich kids can study there?! Does only rich kids have the right to become artists?! Does it mean that poor people don't have the rights to become an artists!? Ugh ! So UNFAIR !
ReplyDelete"Does only rich kids have the right to become artists?! Does it mean that poor people don't have the rights to become an artists!?"
DeleteWell this school isn't really an art school, just an expensive HS that has special programs for idols so they could continue their studies.
Plus it's safer for idols to get away from fans while studying, fangirls are usually distracting and might unintentionally harm the artists physically
Yeah! I actually want 2 study there 2 but i guess that can NEVER happen..... I'm from the Philippines and it said SMART AND RICH! I wish i could be a scholar!!! :( :(
ReplyDeleteI feel you im also from the Philippines , this is the first time i felt that being smart is still useless for things like this :(
DeleteIs there a point to any of these restrictions?
ReplyDeletesorry but where is the point of all the restrictions?? please! It´s a great school but.. it's so unfair.. if you aren´t rich you can´t enter... just mindfuck ._./
ReplyDeleteThe super successful singer Nana Mizuki was there as well.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought these type of schools only exist in fan fictions and then I got all excited but when I saw the rules and the price of tuition fee, my excitement suddenly got so low. Examination fee is 30,000 yen? Oh wow. That's like already half of the tuition fee we're paying in our school. I would work hard to be a scholar if restrictions aren't that so I don't know, too 'restricted' or something. lol I wonder how normal students feel to be in that school. :<
ReplyDeletethis school is so mch like shinwa LOL

ReplyDeleteJe suis française et je cherche une école japonaise pour idole, je ne suis qu'au collège en 5ème, mais quand je regarde le pris chaque année. Sérieux, il faut payer plus de 4 millions d'euros français pour rentrer dans cette école non mais laisse tomber sérieux... Moi en tout cas je vais me chercher une autre école et français/japonaise comme ça je pourrai continué ma carrière :( :)
ReplyDeleteI'm French and I'm looking for a Japanese school idol , I am only in 5th college, but when I look taken each year. Seriously, you have to pay more than 4 million euros for French return to this school but not serious ... I dropped in any case I 'm going to get another school and French / Japanese so I can continue my career :( :)
Delete4 millions d'euros t'es sûre? 1 yen ça fait pas vraiment 1 euro...
DeletePeople look only at those that succeed not at those that fail. I'm spilling wisdom for you people here. ��������
ReplyDeleteWho's the third guy from the photo right next to rules 3 and 4 because I swear I've seen him in a film somewhere, but I cannot recall?

DeleteEvery child must learn so much of what it is to be a social being. The system like putting up a barrier among the students is like teaching them to see humanity in different levels. Schools must be a venue to learn academically and about life in general. Every student must be able to express their feelings and experience life accordingly. I pity the normal students for making them feel disaggregated. I also pity the idol students as well for their limited access in the world, they spent so much of their lives working and fronting cameras and letting themselves seen on tv but they were given least opportunity to see the beauty that the world can offer. though i feel sympathy on those students but what i pity most is the management for not realizing what education really means.
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty impressive, not in a good way though. Most of these school rules are just a hindrance, there's no merit behind them either. If the school wants to protect their upstarting idols this much, maybe create a complete different school for them, instead of segregating fellow students in such a closed environment. This sort of system would instill a hierarchical mindset in these young teens, and that's not something you'd want people to practice in this day and age.
ReplyDeleteI'll be fair here, for an outsider like me, I can't judge how well these rules are enforced and if things are still the same or not (this blog is old). There's also the cultural and traditional differences, so I guess this school might not be that bad.
This school is really strict, but it's just for the safety and future of the students learning there. Also, this school is really famous here.
ReplyDeleteMay I ak about the boy in number 3 the third boy. WHo is he?
