This year, there has been an unexpected decline in the number of graduate students, which has directly led to the expansion of enrollment in major universities. This news has made many graduate students feel excited, and they believe that it will be easier to go ashore this year. The reduction of competitors gives them ease and more self-confidence. However, as the graduate school entrance examination has become "easy", a new problem has been put in front of everyone, and renting has become a difficult problem.
The simplification of postgraduate entrance examinations has led to a shortage of dormitory resources for graduate students, especially this year, when 14 institutions announced that they would no longer provide dormitories for graduate students, posing a new challenge to students. This news has attracted a lot of attention, especially for students who feel that it is easier to go to graduate school, and suddenly face a new problem of the need to spend a lot of money to rent an apartment in the future, which will make the cost of graduate school rise significantly.
1. Tsinghua University's dormitory resources are tight, and master's students need to solve the accommodation problem by themselves
Tsinghua University has also announced that it will no longer provide student dormitory accommodation for master's students who are targeted for employment due to the shortage of dormitory resources. This decision reflects both the pressure on the school's dormitory resources and the pressure on students to rent a room. Students have to face a series of problems such as finding a house, signing a contract, and relocating.
2. Colleges and universities propose new solutions to alleviate the accommodation problem
Universities have come up with new solutions to alleviate the accommodation problem. Huazhong University of Science and Technology has decided to provide on-campus accommodation for only full-time non-directed professional degree master's degree students for one year. For professional degree masters trained in Beijing, the same is no longer the problem of accommodation;Full-time professional degree master's students whose training location is in Zhuhai will be uniformly arranged for accommodation during their Xi studies at the school, while Beijing master's students who are targeted to employment will no longer solve the accommodation problem.
Tongji University not only proposed a new accommodation plan, but also stipulated that the employment method of part-time graduate students is targeted employment. This means that personnel relations and personnel files will no longer be transferred to Tongji University, and they will no longer participate in the medical insurance for Shanghai university students during their graduate studies. At the same time, Tongji University decided not to arrange accommodation and not to include it in the employment plan.
*Starting from the class of 2024, the School of Drama will no longer arrange accommodation for some majors and part-time master's students. In contrast, North China Electric Power University's plan is relatively relaxed, stipulating that students will be arranged to live in the Shahe campus during the first year of course Xi, and in the second year and beyond, they will be arranged to live in the main department, and the students will need to pay for themselves.
Fudan University, Xiamen University, Communication University of China, Nanjing University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beihang University, Peking University, Beijing Normal University and other universities have also stipulated that accommodation will no longer be arranged for part-time master's degrees. This decision reflects the school's choice to give up dormitories for students with more urgent needs first to meet the needs of more students in the face of limited dormitory resources.
Faced with a tight dormitory situation, candidates need to adopt some strategies to deal with the difficulty of renting an apartment. Here are some suggestions for your reference:
1. Carefully study the admissions brochure and understand the dormitory policy
When choosing a school, be sure to carefully read the instructions in the admissions brochure for accommodation. Find out if the school offers dormitories and the relevant regulations to make an informed decision based on your individual circumstances. In addition, it is possible to call the target institution** directly to ensure accurate information.
2. Pay attention to rental information and find the right one
If you confirm that your school doesn't offer dormitories, you can start looking for listings around the institution. Actively look for things like rent** and accessibility nearby. In addition, you can ask your seniors who are studying at your target institution for their experience and advice, so that you can fully prepare for the future or develop an alternative.
3. Understand the school's accommodation support policy
Check the support policies related to school accommodation to see if there is a rental subsidy or other form of support. Some schools may offer financial support in the form of subsidized loans, academic scholarships, etc., to help students ease the financial pressure of renting. At the same time, it is also important to find out if there are accommodation-related scholarships to improve the affordability of renting.
4. Use the scholarship system to reduce economic pressure
Master the school's graduate scholarship and financial aid system, including scholarships, grants, etc. By actively applying for these scholarships, you can reduce the burden of living expenses to a certain extent. At the same time, find out if there are accommodation-related scholarships to increase the affordability of renting.
5. Consider work-study
Work-study programs inside and outside the school are a good option that can help students earn a portion of their living expenses by working. In this way, it can not only improve its overall quality, but also relieve economic pressure.
By using the above strategies, students can face the accommodation problem more calmly and create a better learning environment for Xi successful completion of their studies.
To sum up, although the number of graduate students has dropped this year, and it has become relatively easy to go to graduate school, the shortage of dormitories has made renting a new challenge. Candidates need to use a number of strategies to solve the housing problem, including carefully studying the admissions brochure, paying attention to rental information, understanding the school's housing support policy, and using the scholarship system. Through reasonable planning and preparation, students can smoothly face the accommodation problem and enjoy a good Xi environment.
