This is one of the most important investments you'll ever make, and now that you've narrowed down your college options, cost has become a factor.
We provide all of the educational and cultural benefits inherent in a private, liberal arts institution — at a price that's competitive with most public and private colleges and universities.
All tuition and fees are subject to change without written notice. Amounts are listed with all tax included, but do not include bank or wire transfer fees (such fees are the responsibility of the applicant). Please note tax rates may change, and such updates will be reflected in LUJ's admissions and fee information.

LUJ operates as a branch campus to Lakeland University (WI), meaning that limited financial aid may be available to those who apply. Certain criteria must be met in order to be eligible for financial aid.
Any eligible LUJ student who intends to apply for financial aid must first contact the LUJ admissions office in order to begin the process. Our admissions officers will guide you through the steps and put you in touch with the appropriate administrator at the home campus. Financial aid is applied for, reviewed, approved and dispersed directly through the LU home campus.
For more information, contact the LUJ admissions office and begin the process.
Lakeland University Japan is proud to accept students who qualify for military benefits. We work closely with our home campus in Wisconsin to assist students in obtaining their benefits.
Students receiving military benefits must submit their "Certificate of Eligibility" at the time of their admissions to verify the percentage of tuition coverage they have been awarded.
How and when do I receive my tuition invoices?
All invoices are sent digitally to students. Newly accepted students will receive their first semester invoice to their personal email registered at the time of application. Already registered and continuing students will receive their digital invoices each semester to their LUJ student email account.
Tuition invoices are sent at different time periods for (1) newly accepted students, and (2) already registered and continuing students. Please refer to the information and dates provided in the Invoicing and Payment Schedules shown in the page above.
How can I make payments (domestically)?
Semester tuition and fee payments can be made by bank wire transfer from Japanese bank accounts. The bank wire transfer information is provided on the invoice. Please make sure to include the LUJ Student ID Number to ensure the payment can be received and recorded correctly.
Non-tuition related payments, such as testing fees, lab fees, and course material fees can also be made via credit card or cash. Credit card payments are processed online via Square or PayPal, and will incur a processing fee each time. The LUJ Finance Office will provide the necessary links at the time of invoicing, or upon request. Cash payments can be made directly to the Financial Affairs office on the 6th floor of the LUJ campus.
How can I make payments (internationally)?
Semester tuition and fee payments can be made by bank wire transfer from overseas bank accounts as well. The bank wire transfer information is provided on the invoice, and all transaction and wire transfer fees must be incurred by the payer. Please make sure to include the LUJ Student ID Number to ensure the payment can be received and recorded correctly.
Non-tuition related payments, such as testing fees, lab fees, and course material fees can also be made via credit card. Credit card payments are processed online via Square or PayPal, and will incur a processing fee each time. The LUJ Finance Office will provide the necessary links at the time of invoicing, or upon request.
What happens if I cannot make a payment on time?
If you encounter or foresee a challenge in making your payment by the deadline, it is important to contact the Financial Affairs office directly (financialaffairs@japan.lakeland.edu). We will work with you to determine if installment plans or deadline extensions are available. Students who are unable to complete their payments will be placed on a temporary "financial hold" - limiting their ability to request and receive official University documents (i.e. transcripts, diploma, visa extensions, etc.) as well as their ability to register for courses in the upcoming semester. Financial holds are released once the student's balance of overdue payment(s) are complete.
LUJ reserves the right to limit, restrict, or withhold a student's ability to register, enroll, and participate in classes for failure to make payments or contact the Financial Affairs office. This also includes the issuing of official and unofficial transcript requests, confirmation of degree completion, student enrollment verification, and graduation diplomas.
What happens if I get a refund, and how is it processed?
If a payment to the University is to be refunded, the Financial Affairs office will contact the student directly and notify him or her of the amount to be returned. Refunds are typically applied as a credit to the next semester's invoice, but in some cases, the refund may be processed directly to the recipient. The finance office will inform the student of the refund amount, method, and timing at the start of the process.
I am a GI Bill or (U.S.) financial aid recipient. How can I ask questions about timing, refunds, and allowances?
If you are a newly applying student, you should contact the LUJ Admissions Office directly. Our admissions officers will connect you with the appropriate VA and financial aid offices in LU Wisconsin to answer any of your questions.
If you are an already-registered and continuing student, you should contact the LUJ Financial Affairs office, so that we may direct you to the appropriate office(s) in LU Wisconsin.
