BLCU Feb 2008-contact each other

[franksank]

Zoe:No I have not got the acceptance letter.I have applied for the Long term course which is about eight months. still waiting for the acceptance letter.Looks as if its too early for them to start processing the 2008 applications.I am getting impatient too.

[peahead]

marisa: that's true, and that's why i suppose we'll have to get there early and tell them which room we'll like...i read around, and people who arrive there only a few days earlier normally doesn't get a good room.

[Salmonax]

I'm also planning on going to BLCU this spring for a semester, although I'm not 100 percent sure.

Looks like you guys are already applying. Do you really need to apply this early?

[peahead]

salmonax: i'm not sure man, but knowing china, i guess it's better off applying little early than late?

[franksank]

salmonax:yes,peahead is correct.it takes a long time for them to process your application.

[Marisa]

peahead: What time do you think is the best to arrive? Maybe a week before the program start?

[zoelowey]

Good news. I called Admissions Office last night, and they will be sending out the acceptance letter next week. I hope to see you all soon. Oh, by the way, what is the process in applying for a dorm? Is there paperwork to be filled out now, or is it when we get there?

[Salmonax]

I've been thinking about the dorm situation too. I've read elsewhere on this form that its generally first come first serve and you have to wait until you are actually there to get a room. So I have been thinking about arriving a week or so early and just staying at a hostel or something until I figure the dorms out or find other accommodation's.

Anyway any tips about this process would be appreciated.

[franksank]

I had asked the administrative department and they too said the same thing.first come first serve basis.

hey everyone, i am also planning to attend BLCU feb 08. hopefully the acceptance letters will be sent out next week like someone mentioned. Does anyone know if most people that apply are accepted. There aren't many requirements so i figure most will get accepted.

Nope. I'm getting nervous, anxious... turning into a wall flower just rushing home every day to check the mail.

I sent an email last week, and no reply. I'm thinking of calling, but I don't want to get on the black list. What's up with this, man????
