Note: If you wish to live in housing other than the dormitories, please contact a real estate agency on your own.

Notes:
Please wait for the Student Housing Registration Form to be sent out before inquiring about dormitories. We will address dormitory inquiries after May.

5. Apply for your VISA after receiving your COE (Certificate of Eligibility)

You will receive a COE issued by the Japanese Immigration Bureau from the KUAS International Liaison Office. We expect this sometime in mid-July to mid-August. Take your COE and documents that you are required to submit to your local Japanese Embassy / Consulate and apply for a student visa. (If you are receiving support from an agency, contact them for assistance with the visa application process.)
For more details, check our COE/VISA page.
