ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡'s students are called jukusei while alumni are affectionately addressed as jukuin, many of whom continue to cherish their connections to their alma mater and the many friends and teachers they have learned with long after graduation. The lifelong bonds and sense of solidarity between alumni, as well as the strong connection between alumni and the university, are distinctive features and a source of great pride for ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡. This strong network among our graduates, best embodied by the numerous alumni organizations called Mita-kai, is part of what makes ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡ truly unique.


*As of June, 2025



ÎçÒ¹¾ç³¡ has around 410,000 alumni.
