The student dormitories
The student dormitories (RIST)
The student dormitories (RIST) were established by Gifu Prefecture so that students can study with peace of mind. Located about .7 km from the Ogaki JR train station and about 1.1 km from IAMAS. The dormitories have one room studio apartments, making an accessible and affordable living environment for students.
In addition, from 2024 there are plans to gradually move students from RIST into the Sopia Flats, a prefectural housing complex adjacent to the university.
