As you know, I get emailed about BLCU and my experience in Beijing, so I thought I’ld share my answers to these questions a reader emailed me just in case other people are also curious (seems very likely). more…
Since I seem to get a lot of questions about the cost of accommodation at BLCU, I decided to make a post here. The rates at BLCU vary depending on which dorm you settle with and how long you plan to stay. Obviously the longer you stay the cheaper the rate, and the nicer the dorm the higher the rate.
I’ve received quite a few emails from readers about BLCU (Beijing Language and Culture University), and many people ask me about my exchange experience in Beijing… And then I got an email asking: “Was it worth it?” It wasn’t the first time, so I fell right into my automated response talking through rose-coloured glasses. But whilst writing a response, I had to stop when I realised that I wasn’t being objective enough.
Life as a BLCU student is pretty hectic at first because you don’t know what you’re doing, where you’re going and who to go to. This post has been slightly edited because in hindsight, there wasn’t enough detail in this post. For more posts on BLCU student life stlye, go to the category: Travelling in China.
