  • It’s been a week since I moved to Hong Kong which I’ve always considered as my second home and I love it so much here I’m ✨ thriving✨ ~ bahahaha
    What I didn’t mention:
    -Threw up on the plane 3 times (also had really bad period cramps)
    -Emailed back and forth for three months on arranging to take music courses at HKBU as a music major
    -When I first checked into my dorm, I was just looking around and left my jacket there. When Arika moved in, she just saw my jacket and no luggage (it was still at my friend's house) so it seemed like a ghost moved in haha:)
    -Local students and teachers making the shocked Pikachu face when I start speaking canto to them eheheh
    -Being a tour guide to my new friends but using google maps bc I’m a tourist too ahaha
    -Still wearing earbuds to sleep all the time bc dorm life is a party :D
    Anyways, cheers to the new school semester!

    hkbu looks so awesome!!! I was also thinking of applying but do the dorms have kitchens or supplies? cause i can’t always eat out hehe

    • @withluv_renee
      @withluv_renee  Год назад +1

      Yes, each floor has its own lounge with kitchen! It would be best to buy a pan/pot to share with friend(s) so you can cook together if you want! There’s also a shared fridge and also one in the dorm room! Hope that helps :D

      Hey! I'm sorry about that but from what I recall, HKBU should be providing all exchange students housing. Here is the link to their website for off campus housing: sa.hkbu.edu.hk/sas/living-off-campus/off-campus-housing-alternatives

    Hi Renee
    I want to ask about dormitory. Does international student automatically get a dorm at HKBU? If yes, how much will it cost? Is the dorm for only sharing? Thank you

    hey! do you think HKBU is a competitive school for business education (major in information systems)?
    how many international students are there?
    thank u in advance :3

    • @withluv_renee
      @withluv_renee  Год назад

      Hello~ I can’t really say much about the major you are interested in, but from what I gather so far, HKBU is a pretty strong school for the liberal arts! I’m sure business major is competitive at this uni but I’ve been here for only 2 months so I don’t know ;-;
      In terms of international students, I recall the tour guide telling me that there were about 200 last semester which included students who study for a full year and one semester exchange students. I’m sure it’s more than that for this semester. That’s all I can tell you; hope that helps!

    Hello , I am a high school student who is plannning to apply to HKU for next year fall . It would be grateful if you could solve few queries of mine
    My grades are enough to get admit into HKU and get 100 percent tuition fee waiver and allowance however on the website the exact amount of allowance is not mentioned so do you have any rough idea of how much allowance do HKU generally give or is it dependent on the financial conditional of candidate ?
    How much minimum funds are required to live in hong kong as a student ( annually in HKD ) ? And is it also true that they provide dorm only for first two years ?

      @@withluv_renee but in general student visa requires proof of fund which can atleast bear the expense of student for one year ( in most of the cases like america or britain ) and even in student visa form of hong kong there is a separate page to fill the total amount of expected expense and proof of fund like bank account balance .
      So in your case nothing like that was asked ? both on the form and interview ?
      Are you mainland chinese ? maybe that's why
