Dormitory

ADMISSIONS

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Urawa City is ranked 10th in the Tokyo metropolitan area (Tokyo / Kanagawa / Saitama / Chiba) in the ranking of cities that are comfortable to live in, so it’s very difficult to contract properties near from Urawa Station and schools. Some dormitories are a little bit far from Urawa Station and school, or the nearest station of some dormitories are Kita-Urawa Station and Minami-Urawa Station.

Due to rising of real estate prices around Urawa, rising of property management fees and cleaning fees, in addition the largest-ever increase of fire insurance fee was done in Oct 2024, so we have to decide to revise dormitory fee from Apr 2025. We ask for your kind understanding and cooperation.
