OUR FEATURE
School Features
Introducing the features of learning at Shurin and the support we provide for student life.
01
Shurin was established in 1988 and has been educating international students from East Asia. Last year, we celebrated our 37th anniversary.
In 1988, Kanai Educational Institution established Shurin College of Foreign Languages near Kameido Station on the JR Sobu Line, in an area of Tokyo known for its traditional downtown atmosphere, and opened what is now DLS Vocational College. In 2001, Shurin Japanese Language School was established near Ryogoku Station. With the goal of contributing to the development of East Asia, we continue to support the education and development of outstanding individuals.
02
Learning Environment
From the time of enrollment, we conduct level tests four times a year, taking care to confirm each student’s actual ability and help them realize their future academic goals.
03
We provide administrative procedures and daily life support through native-language staff.
We understand that unfamiliar study-abroad life can come with many anxieties, but staff who are proficient in Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Myanmar languages also provide consultation on daily life matters. In addition to difficult administrative procedures, they also offer advice on matters such as visiting government offices and opening bank accounts.
04
With dedicated staff, there is no need to worry about your path after graduation.
Because dedicated staff members are always on site, students can consult with them at any time about everything from their regular studies to future career paths, so there is no need to worry.
05
Two student dormitory buildings
There are student dormitories very close to the school. They are extremely helpful for those who are living in Japan for the first time and do not know anyone here. Since managers are stationed there, students can feel even more secure.
06
Self-study room and library use enrich both daily study and advancement to higher education
The self-study room is available from 9:00 to 17:00. In the library, we lend out not only support books for everyday Japanese study, but also Japanese sightseeing guides and information magazines for further education.
07
Location
The school is conveniently located just a 7-minute walk from Ryogoku Station on the JR Sobu Line and Toei Oedo Line. Ryogoku is an area rich in history and culture, with famous attractions such as Ryogoku Kokugikan and the Edo-Tokyo Museum, allowing students to experience traditional Japanese culture while studying. The school also offers easy access to major areas of Tokyo, including Akihabara and Tokyo Station, making it convenient not only for commuting but also for part-time work and outings on days off. Haneda and Narita airports are also easily accessible.
08
Immigration Services Agency application approval rate: 97% (2025)
Certified Excellent School (Appropriate School / Class 1)
For many years, we have worked on accepting international students and supporting their future paths, while continuing to create an environment where they can study with peace of mind. After graduation, students go on to a wide range of career paths in East Asia and beyond, including companies and government institutions both in Japan and overseas, as well as the aviation, tourism, media, IT, and trade sectors.
