First, three meals a day+snacks
1. Breakfast: canteen 5 yuan (eggs, porridge, side dishes) *3 1= 155 yuan.
2. Lunch: canteen 10 yuan (one meat and two dishes) *3 1=3 10 yuan.
3. Dinner: canteen 10 yuan (one meat and two vegetables/noodles) *3 1=3 10 yuan.
4. Add meals: occasionally buy snacks/fruits/takeaways, etc. , 50 yuan.
Basic expenses:155+310+310+50 = 825 yuan.
Second, social/travel expenses.
For example: "campus card" recharge+phone bill, internet access fee+travel expenses.
1. water and electricity card recharge: there is a difference between college and home. Students need to pay personal utilities, so they need to recharge our "campus card".
100 (water fee) +50 (electricity fee) = 150 yuan.
2. Telephone and Internet charges: Everyone can't live without mobile phones and the Internet, so this also needs to be spent. Some students may have parents to pay the bill.
50 yuan (phone bill, campus phone card is cheaper) +30 yuan (Internet access fee) =80 yuan.
3. Travel expenses: There is more free time in the university, so it is inevitable to leave the school (except for the round-trip air tickets between home and school).
50 yuan (Bus Card+Taxi)
Additional living expenses: 150+80+50=280 yuan.
Total: 825 yuan (basic expenses) +280 yuan (extra living expenses) = 1 105 yuan.
Factors affecting college living expenses:
1. city
The school is located in a first-tier city, such as Beishangguang. The city's consumption level is on the high side, and the living expenses are naturally higher, but we can't blindly guess. When sending their children to school, parents can know the living standard of the city where their children go to college.
2. School location
If the campus is in the center of the city, the living expenses will be a little more, while the consumption level in the suburbs is low, there are few places for consumption, and the general expenses are less.
3. Major studied
In addition to tuition, daily study costs a lot. Some majors need to buy reference materials, such as language, law, accounting and other majors, and need to buy research materials. This part should also be taken into account.
4. Community activities
After entering school, many college students will join various clubs or student organizations in combination with their own orientation and hobbies, and participate in more club activities, resulting in expenses.
5. Hobbies
Interest is the primary productive force. University is the best time to cultivate hobbies. Those who like reading need to buy books, those who like sports need to buy equipment and those who like photography need to buy cameras. But if you like playing games and buying computers, it's not a hobby. You must spend your money wisely.
6. Family conditions
Various expenses depend on the family's economic conditions. The family is relatively rich, so you can give more living expenses appropriately, but you can't indulge in the "not capped" living expenses, which will make college students indulge in pleasure and lose their initial heart. It is necessary to train children to learn to consume rationally and develop financial habits.
7. frequency of going home
Many college students leave home to study abroad for the first time, because they often go home when they are homesick and need to increase their travel expenses. Although students can buy half-price tickets, they only get four chances a year.
