The admission fee is paid in the first academic year only.
In the case of newly enrolled students, if the student pays the full tuition and then receives the tuition exemption after admission, he or she will receive a refund for the amount of the exemption.
For students in their second or subsequent year, a new bank transfer form with the reduced tuition amount will be sent to the student if he or she has met academic standards and is recognized as eligible for the tuition exemption.
Students are permitted to choose between paying the entire amount at the time of admission or paying the tuition, general equipment and facilities fee, laboratory and activity fees, and educational enhancement fee in two installments per year.
Students enrolling in the Faculty of Letters’ Department of History or Faculty of Business Administration are required to pay a separate academic society fee. (Faculty of Letters’ Department of History: 6, 000 yen; Faculty of Business Administration: 4, 000 yen)
Students enrolling in the Faculty of Sociology’s Department of Global Diversity Studies will participate in a one-week “global diversity exercise” either in Japan or abroad during their first year. They must therefore make a separate payment to cover associated expenses (e.g.,
for transport, accommodations, educational materials, meals, etc.) amounting to approximately 80, 000 yen for an exercise in Japan and approximately 150, 000 yen for an exercise abroad (or approximately 350, 000 yen for students desiring a long-term program).
Some courses taken following admission will require the payment of activity fees.
Paid admission fees and submitted documents will not be returned.
Payment amounts may change for students who exceed a prescribed course term.
This is a breakdown of payments for students who enrolled in the 2021 academic year (scheduled).
