Accommodation
To be happy with your studies you need to be happy at home. Whilst studying we offer a choice of four different types of accommodation. A private apartment, a single room shared apartment, host family, or on campus hostel. The one to suit you depends upon your budget, length of stay and preference for living on your own or with a flat mate. Requests for accommodation should be received preferably upon confirmation of enrolment and at least 4 weeks before your arrival in China. If received after this we will try to accommodate you but options may be more limited.
