Soka University has four dormitories for exchange students for our partner universities. These dormitories focus on creating a proper environment for students to develop cooperation and autonomy skills while living together with students from all parts of Japan and the world. Although it might be difficult to adapt into an environment with diverse cultures, habits and different opinions, the students will be able to cooperate and create deep bonds of friendship by the time of dormitory graduation!
