• Enjoy the modern conveniences of Tokyo by taking a weekend trip to the countryside on a bullet train or digging into conveyor belt sushi with your new group of international friends. 

LIFE ABROAD  
Enjoy the dynamic energy of Tokyo while living in Ikebukuro, a central neighborhood that offers quick access to public transportation, popular shopping centers, and delicious restaurants.

VOLUNTEER

What We Love About TIU 
We love that TIU offers unmatched opportunities to immerse yourself in Japanese culture while studying alongside a diverse international student body. You’ll be paired with a Peer Assistant who serves as a buddy and helps plan activities together throughout the semester. Whether you're attending a Japanese tea ceremony or practicing your language skills with your host family, there’s no shortage of experiences that will connect you to everyday life in Tokyo.

The Japan Studies Program (JSP) at Tokyo International University (TIU) is a culturally immersive language program. Students live with a Japanese host family for the entire semester, and spend 12 hours a week in Japanese language courses. In addition to the intensive language courses, students also take elective courses which are taught in English or Japanese. The JSP can accommodate all levels of Japanese language students, from beginning to advanced. About 30 to 35 students attend per semester.
