Campus life

Student accommodation

Kyoto University runs its own international houses and student dormitories, and its Housing Service assists with private rented housing.
Rooms in university housing are allocated by application and are not guaranteed; most international students rent privately.
Kyoto publishes a Housing Guidebook for International Researchers and Students. It does not publish a single university-wide rent table, so none is shown here; each programme's own guideline carries its housing notes.
