Students receive accommodation at the University's Mitaka International Hall of Residence, located about 40 minutes from Komaba by train and bus. This dormitory has single rooms furnished with a bed, desk, kitchenette and shower. The students usually pay a little more than 10,000 yen per month for the basic rent and utilities. Under the terms of the exchange agreement with participating universities and colleges, no tuition is charged to AIKOM students, and the students continue to pay their regular tuition fee to their home universities. All the AIKOM students join the National Health Insurance program. Its inexpensive fee is paid by the students themselves. Each AIKOM student has a Japanese student as his/her personal tutor. The tutors assist AIKOM students in various ways, both in academic matters and in daily life.
