A flexible option for international students aged 16+ enrolling in Grade 10, 11, or 12
Our Student Housing option offers a safe, semi-independent living experience that encourages responsibility, time management, and self-reliance—essential skills for university and beyond. Home to a diverse community of high school students from various international and private schools across Tokyo, this supportive and multicultural environment fosters meaningful friendships and personal growth outside the classroom, complementing the academic rigor of the IB Middle Years and Diploma Programmes at TIS.
While TIS does not operate the housing facilities directly, we are pleased to refer families to a trusted, independent student housing provider that aligns with our standards for safety and student wellbeing.
Please note: Dormitory rooms are limited and availability is not guaranteed. We strongly encourage interested families to contact us as early as possible to confirm current availability.
TIS will provide students and families with clear Rules and Guidelines for International Students living in Student Housing. These are designed to ensure safety, respect, and academic focus. While the school facilitates access to this housing option, it is understood that:
