Some netizens think that Jilin University has a "birthday face" service for international students. In fact, this service is for all students. As long as you go to the canteen with your student ID card on your birthday, you can get a bowl of birthday noodles for free. If a student stays in school during the Spring Festival, the school will not only give jiaozi a red envelope, but also the school leaders will come to offer their condolences.
As for the "wake-up" service, it has something to do with the place where international students live. International students live in Friendship Hotel and Nanhu Club, both of which are open hotels. When new students are welcome to enter the school, their parents can also live there. In the hotel, the wake-up service is normal, and Jilin University lets the logistics staff go, not the students. Similarly, the annual accommodation fee for undergraduate students is about 1200, and that for international students is about 1000. There is also the "notorious" study partner system. Please rest assured that Jilin University expressly stipulates that an international student can only have one study partner, and it must be of the same sex.
However, we have to admit that not only Jilin University, but also universities all over the country have given foreign students more preferential treatment than domestic students. The entrance requirements of international students are far lower than those of domestic candidates, and the so-called study partner system has not played the so-called purpose of integrating international students into local life and understanding China culture. A very important reason for colleges and universities to recruit international students is to improve their position in the world university rankings.
In view of this, we understand that domestic universities want to "get ahead" in the world rankings, but we also require universities to pay more attention to scientific research and student education.
