I'm going to study in Berkeley in the fall. This school is actually really good. Although he is not as high as some Ivy League private schools in various rankings, Berkeley is a public university, so it will actually have some influence on the ranking, which will be slightly lower. Shanghai Jiaotong University ranks Berkeley University in the third place in the world university rankings, second only to Harvard University and Stanford University. Although Berkeley is a public university, if you are an international student, the tuition is still very high. I'm not an international student, and the annual tuition plus insurance is less than $65,438+05,000, while international students have to add more than 20,000 to this figure, so the annual tuition plus insurance is about 39,000. The cost of living depends on how you plan to live, whether you share a room with others or live with a family, or whether you want to live in a school dormitory. In fact, California's consumption is quite fierce, so the annual living expenses (including rent) should be close to 20 thousand, or even more. Generally speaking, at least 360,000 RMB should be prepared every year. Whether it is enough depends on how you live.
