Accommodation atKashiwa-no-ha International Village for International Students and Researchers on the Kashiwa campus

International students and researchers often face difficulties finding housing in Japan due to high initial costs such as shikikin (refundable deposit), reikin (non-refundable key money), and the requirement for a guarantor. To address these challenges, the University of Tokyo provides a limited number of rooms at Kashiwa-no-ha International Village (14th floor of the Mitsui Garden Hotel, located in front of Kashiwanoha-campus Station) for international students and researchers affiliated with the Kashiwa Campus, regardless of their school or program. These rooms are particularly intended for those who need short-term accommodation (less than one year).

*GSFS separately provides additional rooms exclusively for international students and researchers affiliated with GSFS.*
