Maximum Enrollment Period and How It Is Calculated
This page explains the maximum enrollment period, how periods of leave of absence are treated, and the consequences of exceeding the limit.
Rules for the Faculty of Science and Technology
For the 2025 academic year at the Saitama Hatoyama Campus, a student who exceeds the maximum enrollment period will be removed from the university’s register. A period of leave of absence is not included in the calculation of the years of enrollment.
Rules for the Faculty of Engineering
