Housing

You will have the option to apply to one of the international dorms or arrange your own housing prior to your departure.

The dorms are located in downtown Kyoto and relatively close to the Imadegawa campus where you will study. The single occupancy rooms are separated by gender, though there is one coed dorm. You will share a kitchen and common lounge with other students.
