About Renting Apartments
There are many private apartments in Tokyo. When looking for a private apartment, please note that our school does not provide apartment referrals. Generally, you should consult with our overseas offices, search online, check information magazines, or contact real estate agencies in the area where you wish to live.When renting an apartment, you will sign a lease agreement. In Japan, it is customary to pay a security deposit, key money, brokerage fees, and other charges at the time of signing the contract, and to pay the rent in advance. At the time of signing, you may be required to pay several months’ worth of rent as a security deposit and key money, but recently, properties with no security deposit or key money have become more common.
In Tokyo, rent is generally high within the 23 wards, and tends to decrease the further you move away from the city center. When choosing an apartment, please consider the total cost of rent plus transportation expenses.Since our school is a Tokyo-approved vocational school, all students— Short-Term Experience Program —are eligible to purchase discounted commuter passes. As a result, compared to students at other Japanese language schools, you can significantly reduce transportation costs when commuting between your apartment and the school. Although the commute may take a bit longer, choosing a lower-rent apartment is an option that helps keep overall expenses down. Please note that meals are not included with the apartment, so you will need to cook for yourself.
