Guide to living outside campus
1. Students who want to rent an apartment have to be via regular estate agencies and sign a renting contract with the owner. Students should read through the items of the contract to avoid contractual disputes.
2. Close the windows, turn off electric switches, water taps and gas taps, lock the room door whenever you leave your apartment. Keep an eye on your personal property. Pay attention to your own safety and security. We strongly suggest students get in touch with the neighborhood committee in the community or ICES soon after they have moved into a new address so as to better secure the safety and security for off-campus residence.
3. International students should bring his/her passport, renting contract, property ownership certificate and a form issued by ICES of DHU to the local police station applying the Registration Form of Temporary Residence within 24 hours after having moved into the lodging place.
4. If a student has changed his/her address, he/she has to inform the school of the change in time, and then go to the police station to renew his/her registration form of temporary residence within 24 hours; otherwise, one will be punished by the police force.
