Costs
Accommodation
Students seeking accommodation have three options: university dormitories (off-campus), dormitories managed by private companies, and apartments.
The cost of housing ranges from 55,000 to 90,000 yen per month.
Exchange students are rarely assigned a room as university dormitories are very competitive. Although we can introduce a private company or give some suggestions for students, it is student’s responsibility to find her/his own accommodation.
