The Fukuoka International Student Support Center’s Administrative Council (FiSSC) supports various international student associations by country, region and university (such as the Fukuoka Overseas Students Association) to help students from abroad settle into their local community as soon as possible.
Each international student association engages in a variety of activities, aiming to encourage the development of friendships among students from abroad, and also between the students and local citizens. Some associations deal with inquiries from those hoping to study in Fukuoka, provide information on part-time jobs and supply daily necessities. We strongly recommend that students contact these associations to build a circle of friends with whom they can share the pleasures and concerns that arise from living in Fukuoka.
FOSA was founded by international students who were studying in Fukuoka Prefecture in 1987.
Some 20 international students from various countries and universities serve as executive committee members, and plan and run a variety of events. Their aim is to deepen friendly relations among international and Japanese students and to promote international understanding through exchanges with local residents.
Any student from abroad who is studying in Fukuoka can take part in FOSA events. When you start your campus life in Fukuoka, be sure to contact FOSA first! We will provide you with a lot of helpful information.

We are an organization of Chinese students living in Kyushu, founded in cooperation with the Consulate-General of the Peoples Republic of China in Fukuoka. We plan various events, such as employment guidance workshops for Chinese students, sports events and a singing contest, to help make life more meaningful for Chinese students both during their student lives and after graduation. We are also making efforts to promote goodwill between Japan and China.
In order to support Indonesian students in their study lives, friendly exchanges between Indonesian students and Japanese people, and to introduce Indonesian information to people in Fukuoka, we hold a variety of events all year round, including discussion sessions, lectures, and sporting and cultural events. We aim to play a leading role in creating a promising future for our country, not just from the position of international student, but as representatives of Indonesia.
Our activities include study meetings that cover daily life, and exchange events for members to help Nepalese students lead a safe and comfortable life in Fukuoka. We also hold various cultural exchange events, such as the Baishakhi Mela festival (to celebrate the New Year for Nepal and Bangladesh), with the purpose of introducing Nepalese culture to Japanese people. We welcome you to join our activities and make as many friends as possible through cultural experiences and friendly exchanges.
