[公告]上OSU Fisher的夥伴們是否也該來個聚會?

[bald855]

這是我一位在OSU念書的朋友給我的OSU相關資訊
給各位參考參考

Cost of living at OSU is really dependent upon one thing, if you have a car or not. The reason is simple, the housing within walking distance is very expensive since everyone wants it, but if you have a car and can drive to class from of campus it is very affordable. Another factor would be how many people you will be living with. There are basically three options.

On Campus:
You won't need a car, you will pay a flat monthly fee which includes internet, phone, electric, water, and rent. I am not sure about graduate students but you may have to pay for a meal plan for the school dining services as I do, or a penalty for not buying a meal plan. Overall I would say this is a huge ripoff. It is very convenient as you are on campus and graduate housing is very close to the business school, but it is very very expensive(I am paying about $700 a month for all of the things I mentioned). I think there are only single suites. Another factor is that only foreign students live in the graduate tower(Jones Tower). Most of those students are Chinese. The end result is none of them ever hang out with anyone else on campus. They pretty much live in a Chinese enclave. I think this defeats the purpose of going to a foreign country to study,but maybe i just don't understand. Even if you didn't live there I am sure it would not be dificult to get to know the Chinese people there if you wanted to. Overall I don't recommend living in campus housing.

If you want to live close to campus housing will set you back atleast $300 per person for decent housing in apartments, and $400 for a house. This is per peron so a 4 person apartment is about $1200 a month with a 4 person house being $1600-$2000. You can get apartments for 1-4 people easily, and houses for 3-10 people.

If you have a car the rent will be almost halved and it will not be by the person. It will be simply how large of an apartment(how many bedrooms) you need, which may save you considerably. Of course if you live away from campus you need to spend about $200 on a campus parking pass and it will take longer to ge to classes.

This does not include utilities. Utilities will be $30 a month for a phoneline and $30 a month for internet. Of course most people my age just have cell phones, and you may not need internet at your house as it is widely available on campus. Water, electricity and gas will be about $30 per person a month total.

謝謝Bald大大提供有關住宿的資訊
不過我想身為國際學生
一般剛開始都會以住校為優先考量吧
我聽在校學長說graduate都是單人房的,真棒
不過學校board好像也快開始申請宿舍了
屆時禮拜天的聚會大家也可以來討論看看喔

[wollawskuo]

感謝Evelyn大的熱心，
讓我(我是水果 )很榮幸在昨天的聚會中認識優秀的各位，
很開心
也從與大家的交流中獲取很多寶貴的意見，
謝謝大家!
更要再次感謝主辦人Evelyn喔，
總是有這麼熱心且熱情的人真好

我們OSU pals其實已經有約過兩三次了
不過有鑑於一位大哥將要跳船離我們而去
可能會再辦個幹醮大會之類的
到時我再po版囉
歡迎歡迎

[MBADream]

小弟還在痴痴的等I-20

還有學校有各PreMBA課程

我有位同學被學校要求參加

不知道各位有這種情況嗎??

還有不參加會有任何負面影響嗎??

這.....該不會是說我吧

[evelynfantast]

我是沒有收到Pre-MBA的要求啦
一般不是說8/31開始Asian Orientation嗎?
然後9/20開學
請問M同學也確定要來Ohio了嗎?

另外我想問一下眾家美女姐妹們
你們打算何時出發??
我現在猶豫要八月初還是八月中

[cuteevelyn]

好希望能早日與你們相聚喔！
請問大家打算住在哪兒呢？
住校or住外面？
我一位OSU畢業的朋友建議可以先住校一個quarter，
再找房子。
你們呢？
我現在正在思考要如何做選擇，
這會牽涉到我預計何時去學校的時程。
想知道一下大家的決定為何，
是否可以分享一下呢？

Evelyn，而且是cuteevelyn

[bald855]

不好意思 之前都沒來發文
我門兩個人會去Ohio State
之前都沒參過聚會
如果有新的聚會日期
請各位在通知囉
謝謝大家

To cuteevelyn,

我有申請到學校宿舍(Jones Tower), 也回覆了申請的文件, 所以應該就是住宿舍吧~ 不過宿舍的lease term 應該是到明年的6月耶(就2006秋季班而言), 不清楚是不是可以選擇只住第一個quarter ...你可能要再問問看喔~

另外, 印象中其他要去osu的同學們滿多都打算住外面, 你也可以跟他們share 找房子的資訊, 相信會幫助很大~

To 另一個 "cute" evelynfantast,

我打算8月底才去耶~(目前問到的機票是8/28跟8/30 西北的, 在底特律轉機), 想說趕8/31的orientation, 不過其他人好像都要先過去找房子說, 看來我很有可能得一個人孤獨的前去了 要不要跟我ㄧ起去呀~ 詳細的航班&機票資訊我再email給大家囉~
