To prevent the spread of COVID-19 at Soka University, the Soka University Activity Restriction Guidelines has been created as an indicator of activity restrictions on campus.

The Soka University Activity Restriction Guidelines indicates the current situation of the spread of the disease in 6 levels:
・Level 0 (Normal)
・Level 1 (Partial restriction)
・Level 2 (Small-scale restriction)
・Level 3 (Medium-scale restriction)
・Level 4 (Large-scale restriction)
・Level 5 (Maximum restriction)

The level will be decided by Soka University by referring to the situation of the spread of the COVID-19 and prevention policies that the National and Tokyo Metropolitan Government sets. For some activity points, we may make an exemption depending on the situation. In that case, we will update the information through the Soka University website and portal site (PLAS).

The current level and action range for each activity are as follows.
