East China Normal University

Being on campus provided access to the backstreets and a plethora of international students. Who could ask for more of a Chinese University?

Quieter and more privacy than the one campus dormitories.

good location

I only decided to reside on the university campus for the first few months because it was an easy option for me to settle in. Once I felt more at home in Shanghai I moved out of the university accommodation and rented a flat independently. I would recommend this to future students because it gives you time to decide how to find a good apartment and know exactly where you want to live. It is also convenient living on campus at the beginning (meet new people, easy to find classes...)

Because I like to have my own cleaned and I like space. I like to be near the centre of the city.
