   What you can study

   Dokkyo University is noted for its language education programs and international exchanges. No full programme catalogue is listed here, so confirm the current subjects and degrees on the official website before applying.

3. 3

   Getting in

   Undergraduate admissions are selective, with an admission rate ranging from 30–40%. International applicants should check the official website for entry requirements, application dates, documents, and whether any programme-specific screening applies before submitting an application.

4. 4

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee range for international students; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. Living costs in Sōka and the wider Saitama area will also need to be budgeted for separately.

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not stated, so confirm this on the official website before you apply. Also check visa requirements, document translation needs, deadlines, and whether the programme you want is part of the university’s language or exchange-related offerings.

   How it compares

   Japan has 571 universities, so Dokkyo University sits within a very large higher-education system. Its main point of difference is its stated strength in language education and international exchanges, plus selective undergraduate admissions, which may matter if you want a focused academic environment rather than a broad, unfocused search.
