China Livin' | XJTLU STUDENT ACCOMMODATION // Dorm Room in Suzhou, China
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2024
- !! IMPORTANT UPDATE !!
It seems like Parfait International Apartment is currently unavailable for international students, as the buildings have been passed to accommodate local Chinese students due to the Covid-19 case (international students are still not allowed to go back to China, so I assume they're using the vacant buildings for locals). According to an email I received from campus, there is no definite answer on whether or not Parfait Apt will be available for international students once we can go back to China, but it will most likely stay this way until 2022/23 academic year.

I present to you..... drum rolls A tour of my dorm here in Suzhou!
hi everyone! I figured as quite a lot of people are attending xjtlu this september, why not film a room tour? I tried my best to share with you important info regarding accommodation for XJTLU international students. I truly hope this helps :)
EDIT:
the rent price has went up from 45 RMB to 48 RMB per day.

UPDATE
Wencui
MBA
Hanlin
Will all not be available for any international students by End of July 2021 and will be moved to WenHua which is 30 minutes away from the University by commute
What about after July? Are they available?
@@Reverse_alphamale They won't be available after July. MBA and Halin can still continue existing contracts but not new ones. It is very unlikely and very limited for MBA and Hanlin. Wencui has been completely removed.
@@tulipnightsdiary294 Ah that sucks.. Are you in school now? Where will you move to?
Aw I love how you don't have to share a room with someone else. I'm afraid that I may be having to take calls a lot after my classes, so I'd rather not disturb the other person I will have to share a room with.
im coming to nanjing..u in shizou yet?
I’ll study at XJTLU this year. Your room tour is really helpful to me. Thank u so much!
no worries! glad I could help :D
Im goona study in xjtu next semester ,your video was amazing continue
Xjtu and xjltu is different
Thanks for a comprehensive coverage of the accommodation, very helpful!
Thank you very very much for these, they help me sum all the costs for when I finally arrive in China:)
Im thinking of studying in xtjlu! Are students required to move out after staying for a year in the dorm? Or are they allowed to stay for the rest of their time in uni? :) love the videos
nope it's totally up to us! thank you so much😁
im thinking of doing medical in xjtlu .... and your video is amazing.. hope to see more....
thanks so much! glad it helped :)
I’m going to study here too when I graduate my high school! (In 1 year)🇳🇱
Why in University name there Liverpool name??
Cover x Sub Arabic it’s a joint system, so XJTLU uses University of Liverpool’s curriculum, and when you graduate you’ll get double degree from both XJTLU and UoL
Hiii ! i just watched the video and u said u were going to study in the same university :) 8months later i just wanted to know if everything is okay and if u are still going there and what are you going to study (i'm sorry for all these questions but i really want to go there too i'm in 10th grade and i want to move to china) .
I'm not sure that you're gonna answer but i wanted to try !
Wow this really brings me back 😍😍
That video is amazing I’m in Wuxi and I need to switch to a school in Suzhou
What are the wall made out of and do they seem sturdy enough?
I was wandering
Do u have to stay there rather than owning ur own house near the university
What university are you in? Good video loved it❤️❤️❤️
Suzhou local here ~(hope you have a good life here )
你好！谢谢你😊
This session has really been helpful...
See you in September ....Am Nathaniel from Ghana ...Anyone from Ghana rolling in this September can dm...urowni on Instagram.
I'm glad!:)
@@michellelio so how much is the rent along with the internet on your apartment ?
@@zackrider3708 rent was around 1,500 rmb per month including internet
@@michellelio given how expensive that monthly fee is, the services should be top-class
Is Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University good for study business.
I am from iraq and want to study in China or taiwan i really don't know what better to study in . But i don't know what University shall i go
Cover x Sub Arabic yes very much so, it’s actually one of the most popular majors among international students. try comparing the pros&cons of both countries, hopefully it’ll help you decide which one fits you more :)
Michelle about the rooms do they only have one in a room or there are some with two beds in a room?
one bed each room, 4 to 6 rooms each flat
Like your video， it is really a big help for me to make the right dorm for me！ Thanks！
it's so cool👍👍
hi from malaysian
Hye, im from
Malaysia.. In hostel, during junior year, senior sister can do punishment go junior girl?
Hello. Thanks for sharing this video. Do you know how dormitory works for legal married couples, one living on a scholarship? Thanks
i’m interested to continue my study at XJTLU. but, do you work? or at what age the university allowed the students to work?
i'm currently not working, and it's generally illegal to work here in china unless you're a citizen. however, you can do internship at the uni. you can also legally work at a few companies, but i myself am not exactly sure about that part since this is only my first year here :) as far as i know, xjtlu students are required to work min. 90 hrs to graduate, and you can do that inside or outside the uni, just make sure it's legal if you choose to work outside of uni!
hi thanks for the videos as always! :) do you have any info for the scholar’s garden, it’s on the uni’s website but not on the brochure so i’m not sure.. is it available for international students?
Monica Said yepp dm me if you have more detailed questions
Dormitory has elevator?
which course you have..I have a plan to come to xian university for learning Chinese
Are the dorms mixed or female/male separate?
Hey there, cool video! It’s been really helpful! Thx😊 I got one question, Do you know the direction that the apartment facing ? I heard that 6-ppl one is facing the south, but the 4-ppl one is facing the north... wondering if that’s true or not
Joyce Q yes that’s true, but there really isn’t much of a difference tbh (I’ve had rooms in both hehe)
Michelle Lionard oh cool! Glad to know that 👌🏻 thx~
i saw guling😂
kak, is there any halal canteen in the campus?
can you make video about muslim student in xjtlu? i'm planning on study there
The dorm seems nice. I was wondering, are baccalaureate students limited only to a 4 student dorm?
there are 4- and 6-room flats
Michelle Lionard Thank you!
@@michellelio Thanks for answering my question. I was accepted by XJTLU into the first year with a 3.8/4.0 GPA (unweighed, weighed), ACT score of 23 with a 6/12 on writing, and a very well-written persuasive personal statement.
zeus god good for you! did you get a scholarship?
@@michellelio As of now no, but the full tuition payment due and the last scholarship date have not come around yet. However this shouldn't be a problem as my family ideally wanted me to attend a school with 4.5 times the tuition cost.
I believe my Personal Statement was the most crucial part of my application. It showed my background, highly described enthusiasm for attending XJTLU, Chinese language skills, and devotion to studying abroad. Other than that I do have a good academic record.
Thank you Michelle for creating a few videos on XJTLU. I did attach a google sharing link of my Personal Statement if you were curious.

When you like first arrived in Suzhou did you have to pay for all the stuff or you paid it back at your country. Like in Indonesian currency??? And the instructions on the washing machines were in English or Mandarin
ANUSHKA DAS I paid everything in China, using RMB. Instructions are available in both languages. I think I need to point out that Parfait Apartment is currently unavailable for international students, but I don’t know for how long. You can visit the university’s website for complete accommodation list
@@michellelio Oh ok sure. I was just asking in usual I really do not need it now because actually I am willing to go there as I am still a high school student.I have had so many questions for that and no one really knows much here .So thank you for replying from time to time
ANUSHKA DAS no worries :)
Org indonesia ya ?
Nice video, I am in suzhou too I wish to meet you.
thanks!
Is there a Chinese language program?
Are there a lot of international students?
I might go next semester! 🇹🇭
พรเทพ แซ่ม้า there’s a lot of em here
Michelle Lionard Any Thai
พรเทพ แซ่ม้า yeah quite a few. i can introduce you to a good friend of mine who’s also Thai if you want to
Michelle Lionard Sure , teeten789 is my wechat id
@@michellelio is there any arabic students or Muslim students
@michelle lionard , you pay 4500yuan for 3 months, or for a year?
The school website just says 2200 per month
@@jacobharris5095 4050yuan for 3 months. i don't know why the school website says that, sorry!
Thanks for the good video, it's helpful to me. I'm from the US, I was accepted to the school to complete my bachelor's degree in Industrial Design, and I like it by what I see. I live in Beijing now, learning Chinese. Ill follow you on Instagram and we can message lots. I'm @harrisdjacob
@@jacobharris5095 oh congrats! i've never been to beijing but i think you will indeed like it here :)
@@winf7545 hii, sorry but I'm not quite sure what you mean.. does that mean you wish to use the scholarship for your list of achievement or??
What if I want my own fridge?
Excuse me, what that dorm name is?
Is it suzhow university dorm???
It’s Parfait International Apartment, but please see the description below the video as it is currently not available for international students
Do they have a kitchen?
if i wanna study there, what should i do? any advice? im from🇲🇨
Angelica check out my other videos, i talk about my experience studying abroad in china etc :)
Hi, thank you for your sharing! :D Can I ask what kind of scholarship did you apply for and how does it cover your tuition, like how many percent? Thanks!
Nguyệt Minh Nguyễn Lê i applied for the Entry Scholarship. The percentage ranges from 10 to 50% depending on your grades, personal statement, recommendation letter and possibly interview :)
@@michellelio Thank you
Nguyệt Minh Nguyễn Lê i think there’s a gov scholarship available called Jasmine Scholarship. check out XJTLU’s website for further info :) and thank you!
Is the internet fast enough? What vpn do you use? Is it free and is it fast? Thank you, your video helps a lot.
yupp for sure! i use Atrill, you have to pay around 700 RMB/year for up to 5 devices (i share with my friends) it's generally pretty fast if you choose the right server. glad to be of help!😊
@@michellelio Pls did you subscribe to Atrill before going to China?
Do you have any news about apartments for 2021/2022 academic year ?
we’re most likely to have another semester online, so international students can’t get back yet. the campus is also updating us every month or so depending on the pandemic’s situation
@@michellelio Thank you !
Hello, I was wondering if the acceptance rate is high for this university or it would be easy to get in? Also, I want to know if is it strictly necessary to do the HSK exam to get in and uh, is this university good for a communication degree?
hi! it was relatively high when i applied, i think xjtlu is still easy to get in but it might be a bit harder to land a scholarship now because of the pandemic situation.
you don’t need a HSK score to get in if you’re an international student as xjtlu is an english-based university :)
some of my friends are in the communication major and it does seem like a good major! I’d recommend you to do more research on the xjtlu website and decide for yourself though 😉
@@michellelio thank you so much for your reply, it really helped me!
Hi Michelle. Indonesianya dikota apa? Anak saya renc mau uni di sana tp border blm buka ya buat foreigner. Utk cleaning servis 2 mg 1x termsk bersihin toilet?

yap termasuk, no additional fee. dorm kebanyakan pisah tapi gaada larangan untuk mix gender. pengalaman aku selama tinggal disana gaada jam malam, paling kalo satpamnya galak ditanya2 aja abis darimana hahaha. other than that it’s relatively santai 👍
@@michellelio sama Jakarta juga. Michelle ambl jurusan apa dan uda semester brp? Mudah2an segera dibuka border ya.
