How much does it cost to study abroad in Hong Kong every month?

I am happy to answer your question. The living expenses of studying abroad in Hong Kong mainly include the following parts:

Accommodation and rent expenses

The dormitories of Hong Kong universities are divided into two-person rooms and three-person rooms. The accommodation fee for one year is usually between It costs about HK$7,000 and is equipped with air conditioning, kitchen and other equipment. Because dormitories are limited and non-local students (mainland students and international students) must stay in dormitories, generally speaking, there are relatively few Hong Kong students living in dormitories. However, university dormitories in Hong Kong do not provide pillows, quilts and other items, so when you go to Hong Kong, don’t forget to bring a quilt. The quilt does not need to be too big, just a medium one. Quilts are very expensive there. Of course, you can also rent it from the dormitory management station, but it is expensive. The daily rent is about HK$35.

It should be said that in Hong Kong, student dormitories are not just a place for students to live, they are also places for learning and community education and activities. The work and rest time in Hong Kong is also very different from that in the Mainland. Students there are used to living overnight. They usually fall asleep at 2 or 3 in the morning. Therefore, the editor of Tiandao Study Abroad recommends that mainland students should adjust their work and rest time appropriately before going. , to avoid discomfort when you get there. After all, it would be very painful if people living in the same dormitory have different schedules.

In addition to dormitories, students can also rent their own houses. The rents of different houses are also different. From bunkhouses in tenement houses to hotels, the difference is also huge. Basically, a bunkhouse in a tenement house costs HKD 1,000-1,500, single room x 2; a bunkhouse in a western-style house costs HKD 1,200-2,500, and there are also smaller bunk beds, HKD 2,500-3,000, single room x 2. It costs 1,000-2,500 Hong Kong dollars to live in a living room, and there are also living rooms with large openings that cost more than 3,000 Hong Kong dollars. Whether you can rent it out is a matter of time.

The village houses near the campuses of Chinese Language and Science and Technology University are very cheap, often under 2,000 Hong Kong dollars. There are single rooms; as HKU is located in Hong Kong Island, accommodation is relatively expensive.

Expenditures for Internet fees, gas, water and electricity, etc.

Internet fees range from 100M120 Hong Kong dollars a month to about 304 Hong Kong dollars for the best-rated pccw. It’s 30M a month, and you can also combine it by yourself. I’m currently using Hutchison 100M, which costs HK$152 a month, and I share it equally with my roommates. As far as I know, some people do not have Internet access at home because they are at school all day, and every school has free Internet access.

Gas, water, electricity, etc. depend on usage. I cook a lot at home, and the gas bill for cooking and bathing is about HK$121 per month; as far as I know, the electricity bill is usually It’s about HK$121 (it will be much more expensive if you use an electric water heater), and it will double if you turn on the air conditioner. Now that summer is here, everyone can go to school more, save money on air conditioning, and study more. Water bills are not much, and my family’s water bill is about HK$30 per month.

Telephone bill expenditure

Hong Kong telephone calls are divided into stored-value cards and telephone calls. Time is counted for answering calls and making outgoing calls. If there are not many phone calls, a prepaid card is good. There are 0.1 per minute in Hong Kong, 0.9 per minute in the Mainland, and 0.25 per minute in both Hong Kong and Mainland China. If you are on the stage, I recommend peoples, because it is cheaper to call the mainland, 42 Hong Kong dollars for 850 minutes, and there is also a package of 82 Hong Kong dollars for 2,500 minutes. Calls back to mainland mobile numbers are 0.1 per minute, and others are 0.25. Of course, other mobile phone services are basically 42 Hong Kong dollars, 850 minutes. Minutes, after taking the stage, users of the same service provider can send text messages for free, while those with different service providers will be more expensive, ranging from 0.5 to 1 yuan. There are some phone cards sold on the street, and calls to the mainland cost 0.07-0.16 per minute. The above content is for reference only.
