You are so lucky to have a chance to go to China to learn Chinese,it is no doubt a pleasant experience.But the place you've chosen is not very suitable,because native Heilongjiang speaks mandarin with a strongly dialect.Don't worry about it,whether you will catch up depends you original level,but the price is fine,as it is still a part of China,most citizens are Chinese(Han),but I am sure you'll meet Russian and Korean as well.Have a good time in China.

Thanks for your reply, I heard Heilongjiang is the self claimed best university to learn chinese languages in Harbin haha.

I made some researches and it looks like a pretty fun place to study for my first international experience.

Sorry for posting so late, but being a 东北人 myself, I hate the misconception that we speak with a less stellar accent all the time. Actually there are a lot of us who speaks standard Mandarin especially in universities and big cities. When I speak Chinese here in the States, it would take quite an ear to distinguish my accent from someone who grew up in Beijing.

If you're from the Northeast yourself, you should take pride in some of the idiosyncrasies of the Northeast 俺是东北银！

Can you join the program once they have already started it? I am going to Harbin to attend Bincai Chinese College --- and then go to Beijing in July to study at Renmin University.

I checked with HIT as well and they said that they have a program beginning in July that last 4 weeks.

Yes you could join a program once it has already started, but you will be paying week by week basis.

i.e for Heida. first week 1400rmb, 400rmb for the other weeks.

Can scholarship students live in single dorms, or should I say, can you pay the difference in price and then live in a single dorm in 黑龙江大学 (if you are a scholarship student)?
