Wuhan University or CCNU/HuaZhong Normal University to learn Chinese?

[Keown]

Hi, who has experience with both schools? What are the advantages and disadvantages each? As far as I understand CCNU might be better to learn Chinese but Wuhan University is one of the most prestigious in China...

well hello again.

CUCAS says Wuhan is one of the prettiest environments too... did you sign up for the teach & study co-op program?

(i'm interested in any WHU people giving insight about the college since i applied there too... still waiting on the response though)

Wuhan is one of the prettiest

Those are six words I never thought I would see together.

you mean the internet lied to me?!

Never been there, but the pictures of Wuhan University on google images looks pretty nice!

i've been searching the internet to find pictures of the dorms of Wuhan University... i normally get some artistic black & white stuff that doesn't help me at all. still looking though.

accomodation prices (i can afford them!) can be found here: dorms n food

with the questions of the dorms, i came across this:

1. Bedding for self-financed students is equipped and delivered uniformly by Logistics Office, College of Foreign Students Education. - i read this stuff and think of the khruschevki's built for the USSR and laugh. in communist china, bed fix you! good or bad, i'll find out if/when i arrive, but nonetheless i love it.

2. Scholarship students can purchase bedding by themselves. They can also purchase it in Logistics Office, College of Foreign Students Education. (260 RMB for each set) - the question is, what exactly is "bedding" ? is it the mattress sets? Is it sheets and a blanket? is it pillows and pillowcases? is it the piece of furniture that holds the mattress?
