Language study in Sichuan

[helixness]

I'm trying to plan ahead where to study in China when the time comes and funds are there.

I am planning on doing a semester (or two preferably) of language study. A friend of mine advises me to go to 浙江师范大学, what is your opinion on this university?

A few things to note... Since this is simply language study, I believe the quality will depend on me more than the popularity of the school. Therefore, I am basing my destination more on cost of living than popularity. Another thing is I would like to learn 四川话 on the side, whether that'll be doable or not I do not know... So I'm focusing on Sichuan province.

I've been told that 四川大学 isn't so good, any opinions?

浙江师范大学 seems very interesting and the cost of living around isn't too expensive. The tuition for the language study is approximately $1,000 / semester.

EDIT: 浙江师范大学 isn't in Sichuan, right ~~ but it looks interesting nonetheless XD

Also my final question would be what method do you generally use to calculate an estimate of your journey abroad?

Thanks in advance!

My opinion on 浙江师范大学 is that's it's not in Sichuan.

Right, sorry I simply meant that Sichuan is a plus. Although not a must. What is your real opinion on it though?
