Have you ever thought about living in China? Well, this video will show you what a $15 per month college dorm room looks like. Gloria studies at Southwest University in Chongqing China. Please note, this is NOT the typical pricing for Chinese university dorm rooms. Every university is different and price also varies depending on the type of room in China. But I can say that the overall cost of living in China is much cheaper than in US or Canada. Even if you spend the same amount of money per month, your quality of life will be much higher.
Just a side note, we filmed this college dorm tour video in 2019, before this whole "thing" happened.
Hey! My name is Hafu Go and I'm a dreamer. For the past year, I made it my life mission to study PATTERNS OF SUCCESS for students. I traveled across the world to interview students from top schools like Harvard, MIT, and Stanford. These college vlogs are what I wish I had before starting my freshman year. Don't make the same mistakes as me.

Were you born in China?
Yeah I was
LMAO lol
LMAO
have you realized the Chinese income rate is very low
She is very charismatic. It's only a $15 dorm room, but she seems to take a lot of pride about being in university.
that because the entrance exam (Gaokao) is insane af.
That’s how it is usually in asian countries. We work half our lives off because college entrance exams are extremely hard and where you go to college usually defines how successful you will be. Parents will brag about their children passing exams and getting into the top universities. Not everyone can go to college and pass these exams. As long as there’s a bed, a table to study, a bathroom, our dorms are usually enough even though for people in the west it might look incredibly small.
It’s a top college in China.
She pays $15 but she shares it with 3 other people. So to have the room all to yourself you need to pay $60 per month which is not bad.
This still good, you hardly can search same price in many big cities
That's literally the price of a netflix membership for an entire dorm! That's insane. Another great video man, lovin the content!
hahaha ikr?? I'm so jealous
Theres a dorm like that in china wish i found that out earlier
I bought netflix per month which cost only less than 1 dollar. 15 dollars is more than a year already.
Correction $15 for 1/4 of a dorm. Remember she has 3 other roommates also paying $15
@@amunra4015 so 60$ thats still cheap lmao
She's so real. Usually when some youtuber offered to record a tour video on your house or room, they would often clean up. But this... Feels so natural. Lmao.
A dirty (slightly, almost none) dorm of someone can be very different form another person dirty (disgusting trash place) dorm.
She spent all that extra effort into making herself look good for the camera.
Most of the students are always like that they know practically that most of our dorms in university days are messy when we are sharing with someone.
Plot twist: she did clean up prior
Sure, but also worth noting that this dorm is better than 99.99% of the dorms in China. And yea, the cost is similar to this all across the board, but the quality you cannot compare, this is hand hand picked dorm to show.
She is so cute. I love her energy when she was showing the dorm and university and the parts when she spoke in English was the cutest.
Her: "So none of us can use the appliance. We must use it quietly"

@@Vizible21 hello from China😃😀
I spent my college years in China. Honestly, this so called "rent" is just maintenance fee. The building and land are owned by the university, which is not really charging "rent" from students.
The real "rent" is probably included in the semester fee.
@@LemonsRage Well, the semester fee in China is less than the monthly rent in U.S.
@@LemonsRage I have to say the tuition fee is also negligible. $1200 for a year, or $3000 if you are not smart enough to enter the top 100 universities.
@@saideng2761 100-200$ per month is not negligible. If that's nothing for you I'd happy accept that spare money ;)
@@LemonsRage Honestly, I don't know semester fee nowadays. I spent 4 years in Tsinghua University, a top top one in China. All I paid for semester fee, rent etc...was about 20k RMB in total for 4 years, about $2500 at that time.
the chemistry is strong between those two oh god im dying its so cute
In China, most colleges are funded by the government.
So everything college students consumed like food, dorm, books are much cheaper than the market price.
This might be the one of the few things I envy about China, man I wouldn't mind living there for only 15 dollars whilst in university.
but they are also very hard to get into, students who can't get in from upper middle class families send their kids overseas
@@dtmt502 You are somewhat correct. Universities are not that hard to get in. It is hard to get in the really good ones. You can still go to a not-so-good university in China and still pay15 bucks for rent.
And I must say the food is delicious af, at least in some top universities. Much better than what I get here in London uni and much cheaper.
And tuition is cheap too. My cousin pays less than £300 per year.

Gloria is pretty and her way of speaking Chinese made me learn Chinese 😅😅
That's what broadcasting and hosting teaches man! Speaking is her specialty haha
amazing. my thoughts exactly!!
She seems very grateful for her college experience as far as I can tell. Some students who were US-born don't seem as enthusiastic and take what they have for granted.
To be fair, in NYC, this would still be like $500 a month, without the balcony
and without bathroom
demmm, more than our average monthly salary
More like $5k for a closet in NYC.
the same in London
@@duskshadow25 Fucking true, my friend and I pay 1800$ for a fucking house floor with 2 bedrooms / 1 bath. Fuck NYC lol
The best part about Chinese dorms is that it's incredibly cheap and if you get along with your dorm mate you may get lifelong friendship (my mum is still friends with her dor mates), but I like what I got here in the UK because it has more privacy and less restriction. (I lived in ensuite for a year, but because of corona everyone else moved out so basically I have the kitchen all to myself) But the rent is insane. (£200+ per week)
Per week ah fuck
Can you imagine what privacy you could get if you pay 200 euro per week in China?
10 floors and no elevators? Imagine the pain when moving in.
So try to keep what’s in your room simple lol
bruh they fr moving in with a backpack on god
I used to live in a 12 floor apartment without an elevator back when I was living in China and I will be honest, going up isn’t that much of a pain once you get used to it but if your got a ton of groceries, OH MAN GET READY FOR *PAIN*
@@aro4457 I was about to say that the groceries would be a pain. Damn man you don't need a subscription to the gym at all
its just a workout routine man, what pain is there in climbing stairs?
Imagine not getting along with your roommates. Your uni life would be a nightmare
And this is the true fact and more commonly happens in college dorm. You just cant put 4 to 8 ppl into such tiny room.
When I was in middle school, I stayed in the dorms. We had to fit 6 people into one tiny room.
Of course, if we didn't got along with our roommates, our school life would be a nightmare. So we actually tried to get along and if we don't, we just don't talk that much. It's very simple
@@leeminchung9 I imagine if you didn't get along and didnt speak to each other then, it could feel very lonely. It's hard to force yourself to get along with people too
Yes last time i got a dorm mate in China that awalys failed to get along with others and the "Ah yi" clear a room and let him stay alone HAHHAHA
You can still rent an apartment off campus
I had stayed at a $10-$15 dorm similar to this in my country (Vietnam). Although it's pretty small and we had to share between 4 to 6 people, it was fun and we got to socialize and talk a lot at night (or video game). We studied the same major, so many time we would exchange questions or do homework together. The downside was there's no privacy.

That is a brilliant idea to create 4 unique bunkbeds with study shelving below, a kitchen & bathroom. An idea to follow. That girl is pretty & well-spoken, a tribute to her parents & university. Jia you to you both.
Gosh, I miss China a lot. I lived in China for 1 year to teach English to kindergarten students and while I was still looking for an apartment, my employer allowed me to stay on a room with some other Chinese teachers. Though I have a separate room, they often come to mine to comfort me if they feel like I miss home or whenever I'm having a day trying to adjust to a new environment. They were very friendly, they give the warmest hugs and although sometimes I hate the smell of what they're cooking I somehow missed the aroma of Sichuan peppers in our shared kitchen. I hope I can visit China again, someday.
*Addiction for Chinese university dramas intensifies*
if you havent yet you should watch youth it was pretty good
@@graceyang9412 is that the one where there are four girls living together in one apartment? If so, I already did! ^^
wait can you give me recommendations i have never seen one before
@@taifu7040 Youth is a good one if you like stories that focus on female friendships and their circumstances (it's a remake from a kdrama btw).
If you like comedy, bestfriends to lovers, sports, with a touch of family drama, you'd like "Best of You In My Mind" (among all the cdramas i have watched, this one stayed in my mind because i think it's not problematic as other cdramas lol)
If you like to relive your silly hs days, watch "The Big Boss" (2 seasons).
And if you want a headache and feel nauseous from a concerning amount of cheesiness, watch "first romance" OR for stupid conficts, watch "my love, enlighten me"
++ you can also watch Le Coup de Foudre if you like hs to adult love stories :)
Finally, the two classic recommendations will always be "A Love So Beautiful" and "Love 020"
All of these dramas can be watched here on UA-cam with english subtitle. I hope this helps! :D
Looks like the ones I see from all the chinese dramas but it's definitely smaller
I hope the dorm lady does not see this video
Hahaha me too
She wouldn’t know how to use the VPN to watch UA-cam
Clyde Peng actually plenty of UNI students are albe to use the vpn to watch ins or other app whose internet is limit by government.🌝🌝
zhiwei sin I was talking about the dorm lady lol
UA-cam is blocked in China.
the way she speaks chinese is so crispy and at a a nice tempo. i can actually understand her as she speaks instead of having to translate after the sentence LOL
my mum was a student at neimenggu in the mid 80s and she told me everything she got back then was free!! from accommodation, to canteen food, to student fees...
Wow !
china is a communist country, so that’s expected
Yes , before 1994 , China universities free . After USA made a sanction, China economy got bad from 1990-1993 , so since them universities started to charge, but very cheap
@@weizhang2834 sanction? Because they provide their students a chance to get education freely? Why? I don't understand the point of giving sanction here.
@@denoxdblong2577 Tertiary education was funded by the government and if sanctions hurt a country's economy that would make sense no? Although the liberalisation and market reforms were already a thing since the 80s, so a sanction probably wasn't the sole reason.
I immediately clicked on this video before reading the thumbnails because of the beauty of her smile 🙄
I went to study in Beijing before, the foreigner dorm is much nicer than the local. Foreigner dorm is like a modern hotel room, maximum occupancy is 2 person and there are studio room too. The cost is more expensive about USD 100/month for 2 person room and I heard from the professor, that cost is use to subsidize local students expenses.
i dont know when you went, but when i first arrived in beijing, i used to live in a 2 beds room and 1 bathroom for 1800 rmb, another cheaper dorm would cost aroun 1500rmb.. so 100 usd per month would have been sooo cheap for me..
i lived for 1 month in a dorm without toilet inside the room for 1 month, and that one costed me 1200rmb.
I would cry with joy if I could get that here in America. In the most inexpensive dorms I've seen, it's seven times that.
@@jayy7754 you mean the chinese dorm fee, 15 usd per month or the one i mentioned at 1800 rmb which is roughly 280usd. ?
if i am a chinese student and it was only 15 usd per month, i might just pay for the entire room and im good xD
@@neometalx9 I meant the $100 one referred to by regus azriel, as a response to that original comment, though to be clear $280 USD is still better than I could dream of here.
Maybe you were a master or doctorate student? Usually undergrads get to live in these types of room also.
she seems very proud and a hard worker, i'm glad the dorm rents are affordable!
It's nice to see affordable examples of higher education in other countries. Living in Brazil and having the best universities here being free (maintained by the government), I've always found very demotivating the financial barrier it seems to exist for most US universities. Here we have free accommodations on campus, very affordable daily meals and various other benefits for those who need these kinds of incentives.
i would pay for that as a little getaway from my brothers at home, it's so cheap and so aesthetic
OMG ⚠️⚠️why is she so pretty 😍😍😍
Props to her to be able to stay in a tiny place like that. Tiny and no privacy :( But the price is def a steal
Curtains around their bed provide some level of privacy.
Curtain with phone and earphone
There are some positives side though. She'll learn to be more tolerant to others, improving social skills, etc. I used to live in dorm, even though its not as crowded as hers, still the atmosphere were the same. Dorm life is the best part of my college life, and i missed it a lot sometimes.
if you have good roommates, they kinda become your friends and its not so lonely...
I'd personally love the company, to be honest. I'm not a social person by any measure, but I hate being alone in a room. That said, it seems like her roommates are never around.
That's awesome! Like she said, it was very tiny, but homey! And that view out the balcony! WOOOW! Seems like a beautiful area!
Her energy is super infectious! That’s amazing! 15 bucks! Dang!! That’s nice 🙂
Thank god you didn’t filmed the boys dormitory 😂
Lol i rent a 8 rooms house with the boys for around $2000 a year and it messed up 🤣
Rz that’s how we boys live 😂
😂😂
Dawa's School of School oh yes its clean only when their girlfriends visits the dorm 😂
@Dawa's School of School boys room are cleaner but smell like..........
Omg been here! I lived in the international dorm at Chongqing university and I thought my room was small. But I visited my Chinese classmate’s dorm, I was so shocked! Like how?! 😭 thank you for sharing! It brings a lot of memories!
was your room like hers?
No. My international room was definitely more different
I lived in a similar dorm. Three roommates are still my best friends after 15 years.
She's so sweet and full of gratitude. Hope she'll do well with her study.
After she said to close the windows in the winter because it's cold, she shows that the shower is literally outside and have windows
Damn bruh
She's so adorable🥺💗
Honestly, I would love to live there if I were alone to work on my own things like art and music, it's kinda calming especially when I have lofi music playing in the background and it will complete the chill vibe, definitely need this
$15.00 a month! My pair of socks cost more than that! Total respect given!
Studying in China seems really nice, thanks for filming and showing this to us. Really opens up my mind about China :)
She's so beautiful and charismatic
Her dorm cost is just the cost of a meal in my US university. Dorms cost about $1200 a month but it’s a single suite with private bath so I guess you pay what you get.
Bruhhh
Even that is way too expensive. In my country you can buy a cheap car with that or pay 4 month of rent in a 3 dorm-1 bathroom flat.
In China, government pay the 90% of the rent
@@JavoCover Looks like Americans have more purchasing power. Who would have guess?
@@JavoCover I'd say ~$1000+ is the norm for any apartment in Oslo, Norway unless you have roomies. Then it drops to $3-700. Which we consider stupid expensive, but we're rich as fuck visiting most other countries and utilizing their prices while there, so yknow
One thing for is ! No matter how small or bad my room is , I don’t care but one thing I care about is bathroom and separate toilet..that’s only it....
You guys are getting seperate toilets?
@@januzairamli4426 yea but lil bit pricey than 15 I’d say
There’s nothing wrong with squat bathroom but shower right above that just doesn’t feel right
Imagine dropping the bar of soap
lmao i was looking for this comment
Clean yourself, clean the toilet. 2 in 1 lol
This girl makes this dorm 10x better than what it is
Honestly, I've seen dorm rooms in some US universities that aren't much bigger than that one! I remember visiting a friend at NYU and her bedroom was about the size of that room, shared with two people. They had a suite so there was a living room and kitchen, but the rooms were definitely tiny. She was paying like $2000 a month! I would love to pay $15/month for a dorm room like that, even if it is a cramped quad haha.

That $15 per month for that room is still better than some dorm and college inside university in Malaysia.
My dorm in Germany costs 200 euros and I have 1 roommate but our rooms are separate so she is more like a housemate. Us two share a bathroom and a small kitchen together
And there is no security or any restrictions. You can let your friend stay with you for weeks and no one would notice

@@puppa8619 Wow, that sounds great
@@liap8121 yeah it's cool but it's tough to get a room because of the long waiting list. and when you can't get a dorm room, it's hard to find a shared apartment/ rented room for a reasonable price
I went to Chongqing University for my undergraduate 11yrs ago, and it sucks. I lived on the 10th floor with no lift, and the dorm itself was the most shabby place I've ever lived, then I moved out... Well, that's my part of the story. And I wouldn't look back.
She’s so cute 🥺
that is a mind blowing fact, i never imagined such a dorm like that... I also live in a humble dorm in Germany, literally we are sharing almost everything, but private bedroom. well, wish everyone can enjoy their time together and achieve their dream... Greeting from Intl.Student in Germany
Awesome I feel like to go and study in that University,, I love it Thanks for your footage presentation
I'm jealous of that desk/bed situation. I don't have such a nice desk in my dorm. Maybe I live alone and have a bigger room, but my table is really, really small...
Ow ma gosh, she is very beautiful..... Ow my heart can't stop to love her
her dorm is bigger than mine was with better amenities, i paid 7k+ a semester DX
yea bro, UA-cam algorithm. I liked that ... that won you my subscription, hehe
Damn its so green outside, it looks like a buildings situated in a forest. So beautiful. Also, this girl is beautiful too and this dorm room is so awesome. I spent a month once in a hostel where they had bunk beds like that, with curtines so you were sleeping like in a small box and it felt so comfy in there. So nice.
hotel $13 a night
me : I would like a dorm for $15/month
You do not want to date with your girlfriend (or boyfriend) in that little room, and the dorm administrator keeps urging your friend to leave. They do not wish something crazy happen.
I wonder why everyone ignore how cute she is, (I am not simp)

This made me missing my dorm room in china 😭
That's because you are not Chinese. All fourth-class residences in China live in prison-like dormitories, while international students live in reasonable bed rooms.
I lived in the same style on dormitory during my 1 year study in China. As a European i had a room in "foreigner" part of a dormitory building, the same as Chinese students, 4 beds 4 tables under those beds, shower in the room. If you get used to cold showers in the winter and no heating whatsoever.. for the price it is a really good deal. The best part is that your roommates often don't speak english which accelerates Chinese language study even more, so many good memories from there..
Wow her English is great! very charismatic person as well, very enjoyable to watch!
I can't stand that bathroom :l That's a pretty rough cultural shock for me...
yea
especially the squat toilet

If those were an option for $15 when I went to school I would definitely go for it. The dorm setup is nice and the steps to get up to the bed seem easy to climb. I would just try to request a dorm on a lower floor. 10 flights of stairs is a lot but I guess it's a good excuse to get some cardio in.
This girl is absolutely stunning !!
I'd happily pay $30. I like living alone.
I lived in a dorm in an entirely different province, but the shape and the shade of COLOUR of the door (yellow) was the exact same!
I wonder if it's standardized? :D
Her dorm is much better than me yet more cheaper 😭 I'm jealousss
Her cuteness made my day
That's a great service of security and surveillance from the front desk despite the cheap rent. You will think nobody would care if the rent is so cheap.
I wouldn't be able to live in a small room like that cause I randomly get the urge to walk. IDK why. sometimes 3 am at midnight
Haha I live in a room for 140$ per month and it is much worse than this. I am kinda envious.😂🤦
How come
The Best time in life is when you in school!

@@ac9901 lool as if you’ve lived like that with a ton of academic stress....
Your video made me remember times of my study in China!
Almost every public university in China offer similar dorm with extremely low cost, moreover the average tuition cost is less than $1000 per year! The fare rate almost didn't change in the last two decades, even as the housing market is soaring. Yes, it's because the government ( both local and central) has subsidized the cost.
600-800 USD per year is very common. Must be some privilege major that cost $1,000/year
