1. You can not choose courses across the colleges/schools.  You can only choose the courses from the college/school at which you are registered. The only exception are the general courses about Chinese language (only beginner level available) and culture offered by the International School which are open to all the international students. If you only want to study Chinese, please choose to be registered at the International School. 

2. You can not apply for the college/school which is not on this list.

3. This list is only a kind of orientation. The actual course list of every term can be only determined at the term beginning. So you may find some deviation between this list and the actual course list of every term.

4. Selection and registration of courses append after your arrival and enrollment. The departmental coordinator of the college which you are registered at will help you with that.

Accommodation

1. Please fill in the request form and send to us together with other application materials. If we are not able to find a room for you, we will let you know as soon as possible.

2. The room must be rented at least for a whole semester (about 5 monthes).

3. You must pay the rent for the entire stay duration while check-in. The rent is about 70-80 Yuan/day/double room which you will share with your roommate (Each of you shall pay about 35-40 Yuan per day.). 

4. Please note that the rent for the accommodation is paid from the day of arrival.

5. The room types are distributed by the student service centre. You can not choose the room type by yourself. The reservation is made on a double-room-basis.

6. All students who are registered in the colleges located in Siping Campus shall live in Siping Campus. All students who are registered in the colleges located in Jiading Campus shall live in Jiading Campus.

7. Most students live in a double room (There are more single rooms available in Jiading Campus which are given by the “first-come-first-served-principle”. In Siping Campus there are only double rooms). Furthermore, there is no cooking area in the room, because our canteens offer three meals a day. So, if you want to cook by yourself or you are very sensible about your private sphere or you cannot accept living with another person with different nationality / religion / living habit, you shall consider living off campus.

Normally we can arrange accommodation for all our exchange students,  but it's not guaranteed. In case of an over range of international students (especially in winter term), we will follow the "first-come-first-served-principle" and ask some of the exchange students to live off campus, so please submit your application documents as early as possible. We can provide some helpful information for living off campus if students need.

Academic Calendar

1. Regristration dates: about one week before the semester start

2. Course start: same as the semester start

3. Reccommended arrival dates: no earlier than one week before the registration dates and no later than the semester start.   

4. If you get a place in the dormitory, please keep in mind that you can not move-in earlier than the reccommended arrival dates and you can not move-out later than January 31st (in winter term) and July 31st (in summer term). If you are going to stay in China beyond that dates, you need to organize an accommodation by yourself through that time.  

Research Internship?

If you plan to do a research internship at Tongji University during your exchange period, you shall get an approval and confirmation from a certain professor at first and then apply for the exchange. Of course, the college/school you apply shall be the one that professor works at.
