Rōnin (student)

In contemporary Japanese slang, a rōnin (浪人) is a student who has graduated from middle school or high school but has failed to achieve admission to a desired school or even any school at the next level, and consequently is studying outside of the school system for admission in the next year. Rōnin may study at a yobikō. The equivalent term in Korean education is jaesusaeng.
