First, the school dormitory:

The cost of living on campus is about $3,000-7,500 per year.

Some schools require students to live in dormitories, at least for the first year. There are also some schools where students can attend day schools. Day students save more money than students who live on campus, but they increase the cost of transportation. The meals prescribed by the school are regular food provided by the school canteen. Dormitory fee means that two people share a room, and it is necessary to know whether the accommodation fee includes bedding (quilts, pillows, blankets) and basic dormitory services. If you live on campus in summer, the budget for room and board needs to be increased by three months.

Second, renting a house outside:

When you first came to America, if you made up your mind not to live on campus, renting a house became a top priority. The most convenient thing is to ask China students and friends you know to help you find them. It is convenient to live with several China people who have been in the United States for some time. The advantages are: peace of mind, the same lifestyle, complete daily necessities and convenient shopping by car; Disadvantages: no freshness, no chance to practice English.

However, when I first went to America, it was a good idea. It's not too late to find a place to rent a house when I know the situation. American apartments generally have 1 to 5 bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and one or two bathrooms. Provide basic furniture, such as bed, table, sofa, etc.

According to the conditions of renting a house, the price varies greatly, about 3600-7200 dollars per year. Generally speaking, in a big city with convenient transportation (near the subway) and fine decoration, a well-located single room costs 500 to 700 dollars a month.

Renting a house requires experience and skill. The basic steps are: look for information on the internet or in newspapers? Call and ask? Looking at the house in detail? Go to the rental association to check the landlord's information and find out the security situation in the area where the house is located? Sign the contract after comprehensive consideration.
