Peking University / Beida 2011


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

So I will be going to Beida this fall for a semester. Was wondering if anyone else will be going as well.

I will be a part of a group of 6 from Northeastern University (Boston, MA) to go for a semester.

Thanks,

That's great to hear. I am most likely going to try to take the level 5 HSK in September although more likely October only because I want to settle in first. Hopefully we can meet or something. Are you going to stay in China for a semester or something in the fall Ana?

Studying at BLCU currently, but heading to Beida in Sept!

Also iw ould like to know if you live in a dorm or have your own apartement? Im thinking to rent a apartement but im afraid that it would be very difficult to find one in that short amount of time

Dutch here and going to GSM in Beida this fall ^^ Maybe one time we can all meet up and do some things together in Beijing as one big group of foreigners :)

Sounds good to me, meeting up and all.

Are you all living close by? It's been hard finding apartments near the East Gate. Any recommendations to either realtors or websites for rentals?

Posted

@Fong im also Dutch :) what is GSM? your not taking the language program?

@yialanliu

Do you have an apartement yet? i also have the problem finding a good place to live in.... i properbly will end up going there 10 days before the start and try to get myself a apartement >.<

I live in the dorm called zhong guan xin yuan. It's outside beida. There is also a dorm called shao yuan (inside beida). If you like to live in an apartment, try to look in wudaokou. The cost is around 3000rmb/month. If you need more help, you can find me here in beijing.

I took the intensive program last semester and am taking the regular program this fall, so i don't know how much the workload. But i know that it's gonna be 20 hour/ week of study.

Have you checked both Furin Jiayuan and Hanting Jiayuan (left at the Golden Towers crossroads and then right before the petrol station)? The latter was finished at the end of last year and is a great complex to check out. Everything is new. I lived there for 6 months and can recommend it. There's also an even bigger apartment complex north of Hanting and on the same road that you could definitely check out, though I can't remember the name right now. But yeah, be sure to ask estate agencies about the ones I've mentioned. Also a great Muslim restaurant right nearby this last complex I've mentioned that rivals the one on campus! Cheers.

I will be joining Beida this Fall on the Chinese language programme for a year. I'm a 23 year old male from London, England. Anyone planning on staying in the Shao Yuan halls on campus??
