Tuition for Bridge Program
Tuition differs for students conditionally admitted to TUJ as participants of the undergraduate Bridge Program. Please see About the Bridge Program for details.
Enrollment Deposit
A non-refundable ¥20,000 Enrollment Deposit is required to secure a place at TUJ and access new student orientation. This deposit will be credited towards tuition for students who enroll in courses. This deposit will be forfeited if a student's admission is cancelled. Please see Admitted, Now What? For enrollment deposit deadlines.
Orientation Fee
The ¥36,600 Orientation Fee is to be paid as part of the Advance Payment (visa-needed students) or as part of the first tuition invoice (non-visa-needed students). The Orientation Fee is non-refundable and may be charged independently if all classes are later dropped.
Matriculation Fee for Degree-seeking Students
An applicant admitted to TUJ as a degree-seeking (matriculated) student must pay a non-refundable matriculation fee of ¥434,100. This is a one-time fee for all new matriculating students directly entering an undergraduate program. Once admitted as a matriculated student into the Temple University system, a student cannot change their status to non-degree-seeking (non-matriculated).
A non-degree-seeking student may take up to 30 credits at TUJ. Non-degree-seeking students may petition to become a matriculated degree-seeking student any time before reaching 30 credits. However, please note that the matriculation fee for TUJ students switching from non-matriculated to matriculated status is ¥496,800.
For additional details regarding matriculation fees, please see the Matriculation Policy and Procedure page.
Student Visa Application Fee
Prospective students applying for a Japanese student visa through TUJ must pay a non-refundable visa application fee of ¥20,900 as a part of the Advance Payment.
Housing Cost
(TUJ Kyoto students → please refer to the Kyoto Housing page.)
All students receiving a NEW student visa sponsored by TUJ are required to stay in the TUJ Dorm (Tokyo area). Fall or spring start students are required to stay in TUJ Dorms for two consecutive semesters. Fall start students may elect to stay in the dorms for up to three semesters. Spring start students are required to stay for two semesters unless they elect not to take courses in the summer and return home. Summer start students can only stay one semester. Only students who complete the Housing Plan by the deadline and are either approved for a waiver of this requirement or confirm their intention to apply for a homestay via Nextage do not need to stay in the Dorms. (More about the housing requirements, please refer the Housing Requirements page.)
The prices below include all charges (rent, utilities, internet, basic furnishings, security, etc.) and also covers the break periods after fall and spring semesters (stay available only to those who are registered for courses for the following semester during the priority registration period). All students staying in the dorms during the summer semester must vacate the dorm on the move-out date. There is no extended stay during the break between summer and fall semesters.

Homestay and Housing Waivers
New visa-sponsored students choosing the homestay option provided by Nextage (Homestay in Japan) New Tab are required to stay for one semester regardless of semester of entry. Homestay cost is determined by Nextage and varies depending on the length of stay. Homestay includes breakfast and dinner. After selecting the homestay option in the Housing Plan, you will need to send the separate application forms to Nextage. Students will enter into a private contract and will need to abide by all the terms and conditions set by Nextage.
Housing waivers may be granted in limited circumstances. If you want to be waived of the housing requirement, you must meet the criteria and request to be waived. Once your waiver request is approved, you may search for your independent housing.
The link for the Housing Plan will become available at the bottom of the Visa Application tab within your TUJ Application Hub after the visa COE application deadline each semester.
