Japan relies on its high-quality education level, which makes many international students want to study in Japan.
The cost of studying abroad in Japan is also one of the issues that students are more concerned about. So let me tell you how much living expenses it costs to study abroad in Japan for one year?
1. Living expenses for studying in Japan 1. Living expenses for studying in Japan for one year According to the standards of Japanese college students, the minimum monthly cost is 120,000 yen. This is the result of a survey conducted by the Japan University Life Cooperative Association in 1984.
This includes rent of 35,000 yen.
If you add travel and purchase of consumer goods, it will cost 150,000 yen per month.
Standards of living expenses vary. The first thing is food, which is not too expensive. 1 kilogram of pork costs about 450 yen (about 13 yuan). If you make three meals a day, you can live on about 1,000 yen. It costs 30,000 days a month.
Yuan, the monthly rent for housing is less than 40,000 yen, so I can survive with a monthly income of 70,000 to 80,000 yen.
Studying in Japan can only be carried out on a work-study basis. You can go out to work for no more than 4 hours a day. You can generally earn 1,000 yen per hour. Depending on the language level, it may be lower or higher. Some working places can also provide meals and monthly repayments.
I can save tens of thousands of yen.
2. Accommodation fee for studying in Japan for one year. Renting a small room with four and a half to six floors in Japan costs 20,000 to 30,000 yen.
But you have to go through the introduction of the "real estate agency", so it is easy to find.
You need to pay a two-month deposit first, two months of gift money, one month of introduction fee, and one month of rent. The total payment is for a total of six months, which is at least 120,000 yen. This is the most economical.
A little more generous, the monthly rent is around 60,000 to 100,000 yen. If you find someone who knows the business, you can rent a room with a bathroom.
When it comes to rent in Tokyo, you can’t just choose a cheap room. You must also consider the distance of transportation, the burden of fares and other conditions.
Simple buildings are provided for student accommodation, that is, for low-income people.
Although the room is small, it has gas and electric equipment. You can make some coffee or cook some noodles by the stove. It is also very practical.
3. Transportation expenses for studying in Japan for one year Tokyo Metro: Adult one-way fare types are: 160 yen (starting price within 1-6 kilometers), 190 yen, 230 yen, 270 yen and 300 yen.
Train (Yamanote Line of JR trains in Tokyo): 130-210 yen; Shinkansen trains (Bullet Trains): Tokyo to Osaka (Tokyo-Osaka): 13,750 yen (one-way ordinary car); Tokyo to
Sendai (Tokyo-Sendai): 10,590 yen (one-way ordinary car); Tokyo to Hiroshima (Tokyo-Hiroshima): 18,050 yen (one-way ordinary car) Bus: 200 yen for adults Taxi: starting price (2
within kilometers) 650 yen.
2. Ways to save money while studying in Japan 1. Make good use of group buying Labor prices in Japan are very high, so places that require labor are usually more expensive, such as hair cutting, beautification, massage, etc.
In fact, Japan also has group purchasing, where you can get the same service at a cheaper price.
Especially international students who are reluctant to cut their hair, you can search.
2. Gold coupons: The so-called gold coupons are to buy tickets at a cheap price.
There are not only shopping coupons and bus tickets, but also amusement park tickets, Nippon Professional Baseball tickets, etc... Usually gold coupon stores will display the items sold in the glass window in front of the counter or write them on the signboard on the wall...
3. Supermarket special price period: Generally, after 8 pm in supermarkets, products with a short shelf life such as bento boxes, salads, sushi, etc. will be sold at half price.
Buying a half-price bento is cheaper than cooking it at home, which is good news for international students who are frugal on food and expenses.
In addition to the half-price stickers posted by store clerks about three hours before the store is about to close, there will also be a large number of half-price promotions when bad weather conditions cause a sudden decrease in supermarket customers.
3. Life skills for studying in Japan 1. Second-hand electrical appliances are affordable and easy to use. Taking the University of Tokyo as an example, students generally have one dormitory per person.
Although each dormitory is less than 10 square meters, it can be said that "although it is small, it has all the internal organs."
Electrical products in Japan are relatively cheap, and you need to buy small appliances such as rice cookers and microwave ovens yourself.
But it is generally popular to buy second-hand large household appliances.
Before graduates leave school, they will put unused appliances in the corridor for the new students to choose.
Generally, such electrical appliances are only used for a short period of time, only two or three years, and their performance is not bad.
In this regard, you only need to negotiate the price, and you can usually buy good second-hand home appliances for a few hundred yen.
