  • Find apartment

    • Hokkaido University has dormitory (Hokushin dormitory) near campus (15-20min by bicycle).

      Single room with bed and desk. You need to share toilet, shower, kitchen and living room with other students.

      You can stay with comparably cheap price (less than 20,000 yen / month) and make some friends.
