PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS 
• With a central location in the magical city of Tokyo, Toyo offers an experience in the heart of one of the most modern megacities in the world. Just off campus, temples and shrines that are hundreds of years old offer opportunities for quiet reflection and a change of pace.  
• Deepen your understanding of Japanese language and culture while also examining global business, international relations, or urban and environmental studies in English.  
• Form connections with Toyo’s Language Exchange Partners (LEPs), where student volunteers help with Japanese language practice and assimilation into Japanese culture.  
• Test yourself against a real-life sumo wrestler by participating in a training session with Toyo’s sumo team, followed by dinner with the athletes. Prefer to watch instead? Attend the annual Grand Sumo Tournament each winter at the world-famous Ryougoku Kokugikan Sumo Hall. 

LIFE ABROAD 
Tokyo is a perfect fit for all personalities—those looking for a fast-paced modern environment can enjoy city life in places like Akihabara and Ikebukuro, or enjoy a leisurely walk through parks in places like pedestrian-friendly Tomigaya. 

What We Love About Toyo
We love all the extra activities that you can participate in while at Toyo. For example, there is a rice planting event, an annual field day where students do outdoor activities, like tug-o-war, and a Kimono Wearing Party, just to name a few. You also have access to The English Community Zone (ECZ), a space where any student can come and participate in various programs and informal conversations in English.
