Welcome to OU! Social Event for Incoming OU Freshmen Living Alone (Commuters living at home are also welcome!)

  • Current Student
Date
2020.6.15 Mon - 2020.6.20 Sat

Osaka University will be holding an event for incoming college freshmen living on their own! (Commuters living at home are also welcome!)

Due to the large number of applications, we have added more sessions!

It’s been over 2 months since new OU students began their studies in April, and yet, most haven’t had an opportunity to come to campus. Quite a few students don’t really feel like they've become OU students just yet.

Some new students have even left their families and hometowns to attend OU while living alone, which can make them feel especially uneasy.

Osaka University will do its best to make up for the delay of these past 2 months.

If you:

  • Want to make friends because online school feels a bit isolating,
  • Want to know what OU's campuses are like,
  • Or you just want to try some of the food on campus

Then this event is for you!

We hope that incoming freshmen who are living alone, such as in an apartment or dormitory, will come and join us.

Applications are now open for students commuting from home as well! [Updated: June 11, 2020]
Due to the large number of applications, we have added more sessions ! [Updated: June 17, 2020]

Note: This event will be held in Japanese.
