standard for the world. They were first featured in the“2030 Agenda for sustainable development”, and it is hoped that theinternational community will achieve these goals by 2030. There are 17goals in total with 169 targets and a promise to leave noone behind on Earth.

Support Schemes for International Students
1.Tuition Reduction Scholarship
Toyo University assists international students through its Tuition Reduction Scholarship.
The Tuition Reduction Scholarship for Privately Financed International Students is designed to encouragelearning by international students who are enrolled in Toyo University and its graduate schools and reduce
their financial burden associated with everyday living. Applications for the scheme are accepted after
admission. The main application requirements include having the status of residence "Student," having
difficulty with study for economic reasons, and satisfying prescribed academic standards (in the case of thefirst year, to complete course registration).
Details can be obtained in the section titled "Scholarships for International Students" on the Toyo University
website by accessing the following link. (The information provided pertains to the 2024 academic year.)https://www.toyo.ac.jp/academics/student-support/award/

2.Toyo University International Student Insuranc
This scheme compensates the cost of having family members come to Japan when an international student
falls ill or is involved in an accident and must be hospitalized or receive similar treatment.
1) The student is an international student whose status of residence is "Student" (regardlessof whether his/her expenses are government or privately financed or if the illness/accident
Eligibility
occurs during a period of absence from school).
requirements 2) The student has completed international student registration procedures within the period
designated by the university.
3) The student is enrolled in a health insurance scheme (such as national health insurance).
・Death Insurance (maximum of 1,000,000 yen)・Residual Disability Insurance

・Rescue Expense Insurance (maximum of 3,000,000 yen)
Premium

Free (Insurance premiums are borne by the university.)

PeriodThe period of enrollment (Also applicable to periods of absence from school.)

3.Guarantor Support for Apartment Hunting
People wanting to rent a room in Japan must have a "guarantor." The guarantor's role is to pay the rent on
the renter's behalf when the renter does not do so. Japanese students typically ask their relative or close
associate to be their guarantor. However, because this is usually not an option for international students,
they must use a corporate guarantee service.
Toyo University concluded a memorandum with Global Trust Networks Co., Ltd. This allows international
students of Toyo University to receive a 20% discount off Global Trust Networks' guarantee fee when using
its guarantor service. Global Trust Networks also provides apartment-hunting support in many languages(including Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Nepali) and has numerous apartments andother dwellings for international students listed.
* The discount may not be applicable for some properties. Inquiries for details should be made directly to Global Trust Networks.
