Each university has its own special environment to offer its students. This includes a lot of programs to study, after-school activities, and studying abroad. But, many students don’t realize that their choice (选择) of dormitories (宿舍) also plays an important role in their university lives. Student housing is so important that some universities are offering the option (选择权) for students to select their own dormitories or beds online in their plans for the autumn term of 2023. Here is what some universities do.

At the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, students can not only choose their rooms online but can also choose the bed they like. Students can also know about the information about their potential roommates, including their wake-up time, bedtime, and whether they have a good sleep habit. What’s more, the university provides special beds for students taller than 1.9 meters.

Students at Zhuhai College of Technology could choose their own dormitories several years ago. This year, many students are creating (创造) and sharing resumes in freshmen WeChat groups. They do it to find their roommates.
