Cost of living calculator

Going to Japan has never been so simple

Japan might appear at first to be an expensive place to live. But the cost of living in Japan is completely achievable for those who wish to live and study in Japan – as long as you do some preparation.

Use our cost of living calculator to estimate how much money you will need for your time in Japan. Note that these are estimates based on averages, and your actual cost of living will depend on where you live in Japan, the school you attend, how long you’re studying for, your accommodation, your lifestyle, and spending habits.

Please note that the Japanese government recommends students prepare at least 1 million yen for every 6 months of study. This covers the cost of tuition, accommodation fees, and living expenses. However, we always recommend students prepare as much more than this as possible.
