School fees
The information on this page has been extracted from the KIST Admissions Handbook. Please read the complete handbook for more detailed information on admissions policies. ​​
School fees (Valid August 2025 - June 2026)
​
As KIST is not eligible to receive funding from the Japanese government, it relies almost entirely on annual school fees to cover operating expenses. In order to cover personnel expenses for annual staff salary increases and the like, tuition fees are adjusted annually. Where further unforeseen adjustments are necessary due to sudden cost changes, significant changes to educational policies and the like, notification will be given as far in advance as possible.
All fees on this page are indicated in Japanese yen.​​​​
Refund policy
​
The Application Fee and Enrollment Fee are non-refundable.
The Tuition Fee and other general fees paid at the time of initial enrollment (i.e. Capital Fee, Building Maintenance Fee, Community Association Fee) will be refunded in full if enrollment is cancelled by e-mail prior to the first day of school (Japan Standard Time).
Information on refunds for other school fees is available to families after enrollment.
