Female dormitory / Faculty housing

The campus dormitory is made up of three buildings: a student dormitory, a commons building, and faculty housing.

There are 132 rooms in the student dormitory, each designed for both privacy and functionality. The commons building is a multipurpose space featuring ten soundproof piano rooms, a studio, and vending machines.

The faculty housing surrounds the commons building, providing ample opportunities for student-faculty interactions while maintaining independent spaces for both.

※Currently students housing is only available for female students
※The female students dormitory and faculty housing are completely separate structures
