Our school dormitory has established dormitory rules and a code of conduct for dormitory residents (basic rules for dormitory life), and we ask that you strictly abide by them. Failure to comply may result in disciplinary action, and if no improvement is seen, you may be ordered to leave the dormitory.
Since the dormitory is a facility where students from all over the country live together in a communal setting, selfish behavior by students who do not follow the rules will cause trouble for the lives of other students. We ask for your understanding and cooperation in order to maintain a good living environment in the dormitory.

For details on dormitory rules and resident guidelines, please see below.

Dormitory events

The opportunity to interact with other residents, school teachers, and local community members through various events is a valuable experience unique to dormitory life.
(Examples) Welcome party for new students, exchange event with international students, Christmas party, etc.
