Student Tuition and Fees Q&A
Regarding the delivery schedule
What is the delivery deadline?
The delivery deadline is as follows:
- 1st period (first period): May 14th
- 2nd period (second half): October 15th
However, if the payment deadline falls on a bank holiday, the deadline will be extended to the next business day.
(For new students, the first semester tuition is already paid during the enrollment process. Please start paying from the second semester.)
I am unable to transfer the student tuition fees by the payment deadline. (For example, I could pay if it was 10 days after the deadline...)
If you will be even one day late on the payment deadline, please complete the deferral procedure within the designated period.
You can extend the payment deadline by applying for an extension.
For more details, please refer to the information regarding the deferred payment system.
If a student fails to pay their tuition fees by the due date, will they be immediately expelled?
If payment is not received by the due date, a reminder notice will be sent.
If payment is not received afterward, the student will be expelled from the student register for non-payment of tuition fees, following a decision by the faculty council.

In principle, please use the "Bank Transfer Request Form" designated by this university and make the payment at the counter of any financial institution nationwide.

I've lost my bank transfer request form. What should I do?
We will reissue it. Please go to the Finance Office counter at Tsuchitoi Campus to complete the reissue procedure.

Can I use the payment request form from the previous year?
Payment request forms for years other than the current fiscal year cannot be used.
I'd like to change the mailing address for things like bank transfer requests...
The payment request form is sent based on the "Student Basic Information Registration Form" submitted by the student.
If you wish to make changes, you will need to update your student information. Please complete the student information change procedure via the MYTG Web application.
- *It may take some time for the changes to be reflected.

Regarding student fees for students on leave of absence
Students wishing to take a leave of absence should submit a leave of absence application by the payment deadline. After the leave of absence is approved by the faculty council, if student fees are unpaid, you will receive a payment notice for the reduced amount; if you have already paid, you will receive a refund notice for the difference. If you submit a leave of absence application after the payment deadline, you will not be eligible for a reduction or exemption of student fees.
Regarding student fees for students who have withdrawn from the university.
Students wishing to withdraw from the university must submit a withdrawal request by the payment deadline. Once your withdrawal is approved by the faculty council and you receive notification of approval, please discard the payment request form that was sent to you. Withdrawal requests submitted after the payment deadline without outstanding student fees will not be accepted. (Please note that you will be required to pay the student fees for that term.)
