Welcome to Rikkyo University! My name is Anudariya from Mongolia! At Niiza Campus there are 3 colleges and 3 graduate schools. Located about half an hour from Ikebukuro, the campus is spacious and has a relaxing atmosphere. It is known for its open feel with production studios and many athletic facilities scattered throughout.

Global Lounge
Global Lounge
The Global Lounge was established as a place to cultivate the mindset of collaboration with people who hold different values as a citizen of the Earth. The Global Lounge plans and carries out many events throughout the year based around the two ideas of the "promotion of studying abroad" and "intercultural exchange". There are many different events, such as international students who study at Rikkyo introducing their home countries' cultures, workshops on Japanese and foreign cultures, intercultural exchange bus tours, and information sessions on the study abroad system at Rikkyo University. This is a great place to make friends.

In response to the internationalization and diversification of the campus, the halal food restaurant "Tokyo Halal Deli & Cafe" was opened at Niiza Campus in September 2020. Under the motto of "Providing healthy, delicious, and reasonably priced meals," they offer tandoor oven charcoal grilled naan, curry, and vegetables. The good smell hangs in the air at lunch time, which makes students hungry.There are also two cafeterias on campus called ''Forest'' and ''Kokage.''

Anudariya
Graduate School of Tourism
My name is Anudariya. I am from Mongolia. Currently, I am in my second year of a Master's degree in the School of Tourism at Rikkyo. And to tell you the truth, this is my second time here. The first time I came to Rikkyo was in 2012 as an exchange student. And that year was the reason why I wanted to come back to Rikkyo once again. During my first stay, I had a wonderful time with the international community and made many great memories. I love how Rikkyo gives you many opportunities to interact with the international community, also with alumni. For those who want to have a warm community and a high academic level, I strongly recommend Rikkyo.
My Favorite Spot The Cafeteria and the Chapel I love how the cafeteria at Ikebukuro campus gives you a Harry Potter vibe, and the only thing I want is Dumbledore standing at the end of the hall. And to relax, I go to the chapel. There I feel peaceful.

Graduate School of Tourism
I am Ayesha from Sri Lanka. I enrolled as a Masters Student in the Graduate School of Tourism in Rikkyo University. I chose Rikkyo University because it has a good reputation in Tourism Studies, especially as a University in Tokyo. Apart from the academic excellence, Rikkyo offers facilities for many extra-curricular activities as well. It’s a great place not only to learn Japanese and expose yourself to the Japanese culture, yet a best place to be exposed to the international culture through events held through the university for international students. Furthermore, the atmosphere of the university is also amazing. If you decide to spend your free time outdoors or using the training room or the swimming pool or else studying in the library, each and every facility creates the best environment for your activities. If you are thinking to apply for Rikkyo, do join us. It’s the perfect place for every season.
My Favorite Spot The Chapel Whatever the religion you believe in this place gives you the calm and peace you need after a busy day or a tired time. I like to sit here and stay in silence alone by myself when I have time.

College of Community and Human Services
I am Mae from Japan! I decided to study at Rikkyo University because it is one of the greatest universities in Tokyo where they give you good quality of education and a good environment to study. My department is in Niiza campus. Away from Ikebukuro in Tokyo, it has a calming natural vibe that is the best thing about it! Although it is less busy than Ikebukuro, there are still many opportunities to interact with Japanese and international students during events held throughout the year. If you are looking for a place to study at a high academic level, opportunities to interact with the international community with a good environment to do so, Rikkyo would be the best choice!
My Favorite Spot The Library During finals or dealing with assignments, it is by far the best place where you can actually study. Not only will you have peace and quiet but you should also have great access to any books! 10/10 recommended!
Colleges/Graduate Schools are from the time this was filmed in 2021.
