hiya! Thank you for this, its really helpful :) I'm a Liverpool student going to XJTLU in September and I think since they changed the requirements to go (now 3rd year students can go too) there's a few more of us going next year...maybe ~170 students? So I wonder if there'll be a notable difference. Either way, its super interesting to hear your insight!
Wow you're going there this September? Me too! I actually very anxious about going to study in China, since I don't really know the situation over there. But you're right, this video really helps 😂
@@aderamsey2876 Shit hi I'm going to study there 2019/2020 too, I fly out a week today and I'm terrified 😅😅 she's right, I don't feel like the university has enough information
Hey I’m really excited that you made such a video, seriously helpful ❤️ coming there this September, hope i can manage 😁 i’m just a little worried about Chinese language!
Hi Isabelle, thanks for making such a informative video to share your experiences in XJTLU. I'm coming there in November (hopefully November, it all depends on the incredibly protracted and labyrinthine visa process) to teach English in the uni. I'm feeling totally unprepared as I don't know where I'll be living or whom I'll be teaching and I can't speak any Chinese! I know our experiences will be a bit different as I'm not coming as a student, but I'm sure a lot of these tips are still going to be really helpful to my life
Good luck with your visa! Can I ask how you are going to teach English without speaking any Chinese? I can image it could be difficult for the students to follow your classes 🤔
@@IsabelleMuzerie I'll be teaching EAP in XJTLU - English and academic skills to support international students on English-language degree programmes. So my students won't necessarily all be Chinese but, as per your experience in classes, most probably will be
Hey @sam Evans, I was wondering if you ever made it there since you posted about this a year ago. I'd love to know more about your experience as an EAP teacher at XJTLU. Cheers!
Hello there! I'm planning to study at the university for my bachelor degree in September this year and i also agree that the accommodation information they provide to us is far too vague. Actually, i went to Suzhou a few days ago and i was utterly shocked to see how narrow the room was😅. I'm definitely planning to try and find an appartment outside or i will be in for some serious depression in the long run.
Isabelle Muzerie Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences and providing bundle of Informations.I watched almost all of your videos which are really helpful for international students.Could you please wish to explain the life of the students having scholarships,like how university pay their feeses ,their dorm expenses ,specially about PhD scholarships students ?Once again thanking you and really you are doing a great job.
Hey i want to go study there but i don't know Chinese So should i take a course and then apply to the university in Chinese? or should i apply to the university that teach in english but i attended a course at the same time ? Which is better ?
Hey thanks, really helpful. I am wondering if you are not allowed to cook or dont have kitchen in dorms how to manage then? Moreover, is 5k RBM is enough to manage living including accommodation, I really am worried about this.
STUDENT DORMS 2021 UPDATE Parfait International - all international students already kicked out by 2020 Wencui MBA Hanlin Will remove all international students by the end of July and all will be moved to WenHua which is 30 minutes by commute from the school campus.
Dear Isabelle Muzerie I am planning to study Business Analytics in XJTLU. Do know how is the course. Moreover in your video you told that there are numerous universities in SIP. How big in terms of area is XJTLU and how different is the university from western universities. Do you recommend the university for others to study. How good are the administration and the people.
Hi! Sorry, I am not familiar with the course you want to study. XJTLU is the biggest university in SIP in terms of area. I feel like XJTLU is also the most international university there. I do recommend the university! I had a great time there myself :D The people in the international students office are kind and helpful. Personally I had no issues with the administration there.
Hi! Is it easy to make friends when u r an international student?? Cuz im one and i am hesistating of going there. Which one would you recommend, xjtlu or nottingham ningbo??thks
I found it very easy to make friends. Especially in the Chinese language classes since all students there are international students. Also, the student dorms you will stay in are filled with international students! I don't know anything about nottingham ningbo so I cannot make that recommendation for you. Hope this helps!
@@IsabelleMuzerie okk thank you so much ur videos are really helpful! One last thing, in the international hotel apartment where u stayed, do u share a common living room or a common place like in the international parfait apartment??
@@cedric24x No, in the place where I stayed, you do not have a kitchen or a living room. Not even a shared or common one. In fact, you're not even allowed to cook there.
Hi Isabelle I'm looking to take Chinese class this year in September but I don't know how are the students.They are friendly?and how is life in suzhou?😁 Thanks
The students there are very friendly! All the students in the Chinese class will be foreigners in the same situation as you, this often makes it easier to make friends. Personally, I loved Suzhou! If I were to go back to continue learning Chinese I will go to Suzhou again.
Isabelle Muzerie Thanks to have replied; I already have my admission notice for september it rest the paiement and I'll have the original documents for my visa…I hope to see soon there yet!
Lassane Tamalgo hello dear..I also have to come in September there..what is the visa requirement..did you join on sept.Have you receive any email from XJTLU about your arrangements.
Misbah Ayoub Hi my friend...yeah i already have my admission notice and they sent me the documents for my visa that I'll recover this week at DHL!I'm going there 22th August...if you want my numb I can send you nblm😉
Literally nothing. There are about a hundred clubs available, but there are all from Chinese students and its is pretty discouraging to join when no one wants to speak English even just a little bit.
@@tulipnightsdiary294 Come on.... you are in China and their language is Chinese. do you think if a Chinese student study in UK and he/she is expecting the students there to speak Chinese/mandarin with him/her?
Who want to know why I chose that uni They offer a study aboard to china my favvvvvvvvvvvvvv uni Also it covers marine biologist which am looking foward to learn with themmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
thanks is their 12hours a week is Enough to learn Chinese? any idea about how much it costs to rent a studio? im have never been to china and not on scholarship so I'm really worried.
The 12 hours a week was enough. I learned so much more than I expected to! Also, if you try to use what you learned in the class in real life you will learn really fast! In my accommodation video I explain the costs of the accommodations in Suzhou! :)
Isabelle Muzerie Were all the professors fluent in English? Did they have strong accents? Cuz I heard that not all of the professors in China can speak English fluently. I’m applying for XJTLU rn and I really hope to hear from your experience! Thank you so much for sharing all this information!

XJTLU welcomes you, we are schoolmates.Hahahaha.And i think the apartment outside is a good choice.
Is the application process competitive? Does everyone who wants to go, get to go? Im hoping to go to XJTLU one day :-)
subtle but real criticism. impartial too.

I heard Nottingham University Ningbo campus, which is very close to Suzhou, has more international students than XJTLU.
Where did you hear this? It is possible you're right, I just have not heard about it myself.

So should i take a course and then apply to the university in Chinese?
or should i apply to the university that teach in english but i attended a course at the same time ?
