Guest Arnold Posted November 24, 2003 at 10:30 PM Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 at 10:30 PM If studying chinese at a uni, is it possible to live with a chinese family?? I know most unis want foreigners to live on campus, but just wandering if there are any exceptions to this rule?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunku Posted November 24, 2003 at 10:48 PM Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 at 10:48 PM You'll see ads occasionally with families offering homes for foreign students. Usually they want someone who can help their kid with his English. Most of the ads I saw were looking for female students, as young guys are seen to be more troublesome. You can also try and live in an off-campus apartment with Chinese roomates. I lot of people I knew did this. Many universities don't require students to live on-campus, they just offer the dorms as a cheap option. Or if it is required, plenty of students ignore it. I knew a lot of Chinese students who lived off campus without being bothered by the school for it (until SARS hit, when they cracked down on the students' whereabouts).
