Can Korean university dormitories introduce accommodation?

Most students studying in Korea will choose to live in the school, so how about the school dormitory? Next, let's take a look at the Korean university dormitory, ok?

Let's look at the overview first.

First, there are fewer dormitories and more students.

Dormitories in most universities in South Korea are very tense. Basically, there are fewer students in dorms, and they have to reapply before the start of each semester. Those lucky enough to stay are basically students with excellent academic performance in all departments. Therefore, unlike Huada, there are not many people who know each other in the same dormitory, and the roommates who live in the same room are basically not in the same major and grade. When I was a college student in China, I liked to visit dormitories, chat, play cards and watch movies at night. In Korean universities, this kind of thing also exists, but it is not very common. Most students are fighting alone and guarding the door alone.

Second, the dormitory canteen is not self-help

Korean universities have special dormitory canteens, just like foreign canteens. The dormitory canteen is not open to the public, and the dormitory expenses include accommodation and meals. Many canteens in domestic universities are basically semi-self-help, and students can choose many dishes by themselves. When I was in college in China, I often worried about what I wanted to eat, because there were too many tricks. In Korea, the opposite is true. Many dormitory canteens (including foreign canteens in schools) basically have nothing to choose from, one main course, two side dishes and one soup. Do you want to eat or not? That's all. Of course, some foreign canteens can have other choices, but compared with domestic university canteens, there are really too few styles.

Third, male and female dormitories are forbidden to enter each other.

In domestic universities, boys are forbidden to enter girls' dormitories, which has basically become a school rule. But many times, girls can go in and out of boys' dormitories at will (without staying overnight). In Korea, both of these behaviors are prohibited (except in special circumstances). Although this is nothing unusual, the self-discipline attitude of Korean students towards this regulation is admirable. Occasionally, girls live in boys' dormitories (or boys live in girls' dormitories) in China, and many students are expelled from school. In Korea, this kind of thing basically won't happen. Once in the dormitory, I saw a group of boys sitting on the stairs, girls standing under the stairs, and several people were chatting. Because there are girls' dormitories on one side of the first floor, and boys' dormitories on the other side and upstairs. Even so, they will not cross the line when chatting. Korean university dormitories have dormitory open days every semester, which last for one week. During this period, male and female students can visit each other's dormitory, but it can't exceed 8 pm.

Fourth, the dormitory is unusually quiet.

Many foreign students who have just arrived in Korea may be a little uncomfortable with the quietness of Korean dormitories. Because the people in the dormitory are not very familiar. There are few loud noises in Korean student corridors. The door is almost closed except in summer. Walking in the corridor, you usually go to the toilet, take a shower and eat. It's rare to stop and stand and chat in the corridor. This is in great contrast to the Korean students seen by many people in China, but it is a fact. Many people have told me that Koreans are very loud and shout everywhere they go. But what I saw in the Korean dormitory was just the opposite. This may be related to a kind of psychology that people relax in a strange environment and pay little attention to etiquette image.

Some school dormitories are closed during holidays.

Some Korean universities don't open dormitories during holidays. All the students must leave. Or only open for a certain period of time, during which you need to pay extra. Not opening dormitories often brings great inconvenience to international students. However, most schools will still take care of international students and allow them to live in dormitories during holidays.

Six, the dormitory has a weekly meeting.

Some university dormitories have regular meetings. During the regular meeting, it is necessary to call the roll and convey some news and regulations about dormitory management. Don't underestimate this regular meeting. Those who fail to call the roll for three times without reason may be disqualified. For example, it is forbidden to use all kinds of electric heaters in dormitories. If found, points will be deducted, and once the points are deducted to a certain extent, the accommodation qualification will be cancelled.

Seven, dormitory and college management separately.

There are no counselors in Korean universities, but each department has teaching assistants who specialize in managing chores. But even so, the management of the dormitory has little to do with the department and belongs to an independent department. Even if the student does not perform well in the dormitory, the dormitory management department will only talk to the student directly, and even if he is dismissed, it will not have much impact on him in the department.

Eight, the dormitory is constantly powered.

University dormitories in Korea are basically powered 24 hours a day. When students go to bed is entirely up to them. So students often play games, watch movies and stay up late. But as long as you don't influence others, no one will care. So at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, we often see people washing their faces, fetching water and going to the toilet.

Then let's see how to refund the rent.

1. Interpretation of University Dormitory Retirement System in Korea

What is the dormitory withdrawal system in South Korea's study abroad universities? Some schools with strong business atmosphere will select a property company every few years, and several properties will bid at the same time, so that the property company with higher cost performance will win the bid. The evaluation criteria of property companies are generally whether the dormitory accident rate is zero within a period of time and the complaint rate of residential students on property management.

The so-called online room selection means that after the opening of the room selection system, students who have applied for dormitory can choose their favorite floors and rooms. According to its introduction, the degree of tension in the housing selection process is no less than that of the Real Estate Bureau on the eve of the entry into force of "China Five Real Estate Articles". Ten minutes before the system was turned on, everyone was already sitting in front of the computer, desperately waiting for the moment when the system was turned on. Take Xiaowen's dormitory as an example. There is a sea on one side, a snow-capped mountain on the other, and forests on both sides. Experience shows that the sea view room on the top floor was taken away first. Students who choose the best room are jubilant, and students who are dissatisfied with the location will naturally be unhappy.

Second, the system of free accommodation and withdrawal.

If a student can't adapt to the dormitory environment and wants to leave the dormitory and rent a house off campus, it is also very simple to apply for withdrawal. There is no need to state the reasons for dropping out of school to the accommodation center and the school youth league Committee, as long as you apply for dropping out of school in the dormitory management system of the school intranet. After the students check out, the school will deduct the consumed expenses from the total accommodation fee of the semester in units of seven days, and transfer the remaining expenses to the student account one week later. Students who have withdrawn from the dormitory can avoid the embarrassment of the manager's statement of reasons if they want to live in the dormitory again. They can directly enter their student number in the online management system and apply for the next round of dormitory room selection.
