Study Abroad Costs
Students do not need to pay course fees to the universities where they study abroad while studying abroad at universities with which we have foreign exchange agreements. They can attend lectures at universities in other countries by just paying the course fees to Yamaguchi University.
Expenses they will need include their travel expenses, housing expenses in the local region, insurance premiums, and so forth.
While the costs for studying abroad vary depending on the country and region where students study, the table below indicates the study abroad costs for the main countries and regions that students of the faculty study abroad at, with this for use only as a reference.
These expenses may differ depending on the country’s circumstances, exchange rate, and living configuration (shared dormitory room vs. one room apartment, cooking at home vs. eating out) at the time, and should be regarded as nothing more than approximate estimates.
