Jamba Posted June 12, 2009 at 01:01 PM Report Posted June 12, 2009 at 01:01 PM Hello! I'm in a bit of a rut and I was hoping that someone here could help me out. I'm so glad I found this forum because I've been unable to get in contact with BNU. Here's my story. I'm a current college student from the United States and I was planning on going to Beijing this summer for a two-month internship set up through a program. I've already bought my plane ticket and I'll be leaving next Sunday. I have my visa and everything ready to go, and just as I thought I had everything under control, I got an e-mail saying they couldn't find an internship for me. This was unfortunate news, but since I already bought my plane ticket and got my visa, I'm going to make the best of my trip. I've done some research on the colleges in Beijing and I'm set on going to Beijing Normal University to study based on its location and merit. The problem here is, I want to send in an application to enroll in Summer Sessions A & B but the deadline is on June 15. The program starts on July 5th but I'm not sure what I should do because they say "For International Students: 1. Deadline of Application: June 15th, 2009. Please do visa production by yourself if you apply after June 15th." Does this mean that if I already have my visa that I can apply any time before July 5th? I will arrive in Beijing on June 22nd so that means I would be able to apply in person. Another problem is their website says "Those who wish to live in the international students building are expected to complete booking application form and send it to International Students Office by the end of June 15th , 2009." Does this mean that I won't be able to live in their international student dorms if I don't send in my application before this time, or do I have the option of applying for tuition and housing once I get there on the 22nd? I would REALLY appreciate your help guys. Any input or experiences would help a lot. Quote
