Living costs and Entrance/Tuition Fee Support
■Living costs
Accommodation costs in Sapporo are relatively cheap compared to other Japanese cities. Moreover, given the close proximity between dormitories, private apartments, and the university campus, a majority of students commute to and from the university on foot or by bicycle all year round, except during winter.
For a single student, the monthly living cost is about 100,000 yen.
Please check here about the cost of the university dormitories.
