The secret of East China Normal University’s graduate dormitory

To reveal the secrets of East China Normal University’s graduate dormitories, we must start from the advantages, disadvantages and surrounding supporting facilities.

1. Advantages

The dormitory for master's students is generally a room for two people (doctoral students usually have a room for one person), with a bed and a table. The area of ??a single room is not large, about 20 square meters. The dormitory has its own private bathroom, electric water heater, and electric fan. Air conditioners need to be rented at the school's designated location, and broadband needs to be purchased at the campus business hall, which costs about 200 per capita per year. There are 3 types of rental options for air conditioners.

Graduate student dormitories are generally constructed with 6 floors. Public washing machines and hot water machines are located on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th floors of each dormitory. Another advantage of the graduate student apartments is that they have 24-hour power and Internet access, and the hostesses in each building are very friendly and easy to communicate with.

2. Disadvantages

After talking about the advantages, let’s talk about a few minor disadvantages. There is no floor in the dormitory, there is usually a lot of dust, the capacity of the water heater is not large enough, and in summer There are many people using the washing machine and the washing machine is not cleaned in time. But considering that the housing prices around the graduate student apartments have already reached 100,000 yuan, and our dormitory charges 1,200 yuan a year, we can only say that we need bicycles.

3. Surrounding supporting facilities

Let’s talk about the canteen first. The canteen in the graduate student apartment is called Qiulin Pavilion, with three floors above and below. The first floor of Qiulin Pavilion mainly sells fast food, and the average consumption per person is about 10 yuan per meal. The second floor of Qiulin Pavilion is a specialty restaurant. There are pickled fish, spicy hot pot, medium pot dishes, spicy hotpot, dumplings, fish meal and other special foods, about 15 yuan per meal. The consumption level on the third floor is higher. It is a place where many teachers and students gather for dinner. The average per person per meal is 50 yuan. It is worth mentioning that the third floor will provide crayfish and other special foods for a limited time.

As for the supermarket, there is an education supermarket in the graduate student apartment, which usually supplies some daily necessities, fresh fruits and other products at relatively affordable prices.

Finally, let’s talk about the study room. If you feel that going to the library is too far and studying in the dormitory is too inefficient, then you can choose to review in the self-study room in the graduate apartment. It is less than 10 minutes to the supermarket and canteen. meters, and there is free campus Wi-Fi, but it is difficult to get a seat before the exam.

In addition, to add to the traffic situation, Zizhu High-tech Zone Station on Line 15 is the nearest subway station to Minhang Campus. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the graduate apartment to the subway station, and about 10 minutes by bus. Line 15 will be opened in 2021. Since Line 15 connects the Minhang Campus and the North Central Campus of East China Normal University, I would like to call it the "school railway".
